And happy May 35th, all!
Not wanting it to be June?
I was going to go grocery shopping today, but just couldn't stand the thought of all that walking,
Many stores have a little electric chair/basket gizmo that you can ride around and shop. They are usually at the front of the store. Does your supermarket have one? Just a thought.

Yeah, but I also had to either walk to the store or find a cab, which would either be a few blocks of walking or a while of standing around and waiting from where I was.
I need to calm down. I got an email from my advisor, and my heart started racing like I was about to have a panic attack. The email itself was perfectly harmless; it's just that I've gotten so used to being either threatened or insulted when I open emails from him that my body is preemptively tensing.
May everything the Buffistas wish for your adviser come true. But only after you are completely free of him.
I had a very odd conversation with one of my officemates yesterday. (Not the one I usually post about; a different one.) He was reading some articles about the situation in Gaza, and he asked me a few questions about the political and historical background, which I answered as well as I could. Then he said that he heard on the radio (I know he listens to Rush Limbaugh, but I'm not sure if that's the program he was talking about) that everybody is criticizing Israel because of antisemitism. He asked me if that was true, and I said something like, "Well, some of it is, but there's also plenty of criticism that's not antisemitic at all." Then he asked me a few questions about my opinions on a few Israeli political issues, which I answered honestly. It seems that my priorities weren't the same as what the guy on the radio said Jews' priorities were. While my officemate didn't quite tell me that I was wrong, he did pretty strongly imply that there was something weird about me. (I was getting rather amused at being lectured on Israeli politics by someone who had never heard the phrase "Palestinian Mandate" until about two minutes earlier, when I'd explained it to him.)

But Hil, how are we supposed to run a successful Zionist cabal if people are allowed to have their own opinions about Israel?? Fall in line!
Dear student: I do not have an answer to your question, because the person that I need to talk to is out of the office. If I had an answer, I would tell you. Please stop calling me every 15 minutes.

Damn, Hil, next thing you're going to say is that you aren't in the underground bank vault, secretly controlling the world economy! (I assume that Jess is there with you, as well.)
Way to shatter my stereotypes.
They can't both be in the bank vault; one of them has to be in Hollywood, Steph.
