Every time I mention the name of a Catholic university where I applied for a job (and there are a lot of them), my officemate responds by telling me the history of the person or order or whatever that it's named for. It is, as usual, strange and off-putting.
I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.

[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

However, my officemate has also been very nice about picking stuff up from the printer for me. (I've been printing a ton of stuff, and my computer prints to a printer that's in a different room, and it's been bugging my ankle to keep walking back and forth, so he told me to just ask him to pick stuff up when I need it.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Officemate thinks you are as interested in the minutiae of other religions as he is.

He sounds like the sort of dude who'd hurt himself and tell me how eye-opening it all is, and, Tep, I don't mean porn. So I am annoyed with him in absentia from the bottom of my shikse heart. Dude, we're not all your object lessons, k? Signed, America's Diversity xxoo

All is well that ends in pizza.
Then two female bears came out of the woods and tore up forty-two lads of their number.
I still find it odd that the Bible specifically states that the two bears that came out of the woods and attacked the children were females.
I always wondered if that was in the original, or added by the translating-for-agenda team in the early church.
ETA: Context, and the fact I was catching up a bit...

Toddson, should you ever wish to break our lease, you have a good compelling health hazard to cite.
Yick.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
chopped mango
red onion
jalapeño (ribs and seeds are the hottest part)
cilantro
fresh lime juice
Optionally I drizzle a little olive oil over it, add diced avocado (omg good with the scallops), tomatoes, cucumbers, jicama or anything that grabs my eye.

I didn't mention this in Press, but when I talked to my mom she was just going to call her dentist as she had chipped a tooth on some hard candy. Argh.
She has good coverage, but still on a late Friday afternoon? bad time to try and get in at a dentist. I encouraged her to try and contact them, so that they can at least see if they can check it out.

Another reason I may be going to hell: You guys know about the transcription project I'm doing...discrimination diaries...I've done about fifty pages so far(yay me!) but I may have to stop soon, because most of the entries concern the summer of '88, and suddenly I hear Rain Man's voice talking about "Serious injuries...1988," and suddenly nothing I'm copying looks very different from that.
