TCG just came home from having his stitches out, and he is doing better.
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Yet another flyby as I skim a bunch of posts, then know I have to get back to work. {{y'all}}
DH wouldn't have called Aims on my behalf because if I heard she was going to the midnight show I would call and let her know I would see her there, if there was a chance of me being awake at midnight, and if I had any interest in seeing the movie. Then again if I was moaning to DH that I wanted to go to the show with Aims he would tell me to pick up the damn phone and call her.
I honestly think this is how it went with them:
J: Huh. Aimee's going to the midnight showing of New Moon tonight. We're supposed to see that together at some point, too.
S t in his head : OMG!! My wife is sad and upset that her friends are shunning her! I must put on my cape and run to her rescue but wait! I must make sure the person I am asking to rescue her will not tell her that I planned this whole thing for fear she will get mad at me because she was just making an offhand comment that I have taken too seriously and have now gone too far in and I probably should have just waited a monute because my wife is off playing a video game and looks as though she could care less and fuck.
Also, have fun!
I applied for 10 jobs today and am not holding my breath about hearing from any of them.
Examples, Shir? (I'm not as widely read in general sociology as I should be. I'd like to explore this idea further, if you have papers or similar that you find apologetic.)
It's the lecturers, not the papers. As in, entire class in which the lecturer tried to apologies behalf of quantitative-method sociology whenever he feels it's not "scientific" enough.
Is Teppy around?? There's been a wee discussion of names in the reality tv thread and it reminded me that I wanted to share a name of a student....
Batman.
Yep. 8th grader named Batman. Seriously, how cool would it be to have this conversation:
Random person: What's your name?
B: I'm Batman.
It might work against bullies: "Don't hurt me! If you do, I'll go get my friend Batman!"
Hee. That makes me think of Abed dressed as Batman on Community.
That is pretty awesome.
