This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Candy corn and circus peanuts are on the chart, but with no situation for which they are appropriate.

As is right and true.

We (the group of stoners I hung out with in high school) used to call the circus peanuts "putrid peanuts". Even stoned they were to be avoided at all costs.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My boss spilled coffee on her desk two days ago, and she can't stop talking about how mad she is at her self and how could she do that?!?! I think she seriously needs to calm down!

Er...8 am is definitely business hours.

Esp. if she called you at 7:42 am.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I made it to work today. Headache isn't gone, but I can handle light now. I have too much to catch up on from being on vacation to miss more time right now. Blerg.

With the talk of "early morning calls", I just realized I texted K-Bug when it was 6:30 her time. Ooops. Since she hasn't called back fussing at me, I guess it didn't wake her up.

Grr. Dentist appt rescheduled. For 3 weeks from now. Just want this OVER.

Seriously, sparky? Ugh. If you call at 7:42 and leave a message then 8 is fine. WHAT EV.

I am freezing this morning.

Seriously, sparky?

Yep. Students! I can't figure them out, but my guess is that she'd gone back to bed. Also, I think many of us are just annoyed by phone calls - we're so used to email, IM, etc., to get our questions answered.

Speaking of students, my sister, who teaches at Santa Monica College had 51 people trying to force into one of her classes yesterday (already full, with 45 registered students).

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I'm not surprised. Most of the CCs dramatically pared down Winter Quarter offerings and I know any of the big prereq classes (she teaches Calc or Calc II right>?) have been HAMMERED. My former students who are at a CC are pretty depressed, especially the one who had been accepted to Berkeley who's parents wouldn't let her go because it was too far. @@.
