Seska, I love the idea of you being in Chicago. And I'm really astonished that with all of the dissertation hell, you're still thinking of applying for PhD.
I'm skipping, again. Only tonight I'll have time to watch the good Doctor. I had a dream tonight that I was given (by my parents, I think), the second Great Trip Abroad I wanted, in the end of this academic year - and as thrilled as I was, I was very bothered that the dates might clash with some of my finals (my mind was all "San Fransisco!" (that was the location on the ticket) - "shit, the final in Social Theories!". Very bothering, indeed).
In the Most Unnecessary Class ever, yesterday, we were talking about translation. There's a Hebrew/Yiddish term, "lefargen", means (by my online dictionary): "(Yiddish) (colloquial) to treat favorably, to treat with equanimity, to bear no grudge or jealousy against". The teacher said there's no word for it, and all I was thinking "sure there is. To support one in emails in lefargen". That was something that I knew only you would understand.
I need to stop skipping. I'm really missing the time to read here thoroughly, and I feel like a miss a lot. Plus, I miss you people.
More Ryan photos! Includes the joy of solids, and his first stay away from home. Starts here: [link]
I've been bonding with one of my lecturers over babies. He and his wife had their first child about a month ago. (He also apparently expects me to do well in this unit, which, no pressure.)
Oh, and another thing.
In an "hello!" post on my other (minor!) board, someone introduced herself by saying she loves polar bears.
It took a great deal out of me not to reply with "And how do you feel about Tino?".

Do you know how many times at work I've had to stop myself from saying "work it out in thread and
then
come to me."
This shot is my favorite. [link]
Can we get going with that cloning thing? I have so much to do at home, and so much to do at the office. Need another me.
Adorable Ryan pictures!
I woke up at least twice last night. Not sure why. Actual full night's sleep would be nice.

Buffistas' bureaucracy: it works, Bitches.

I hear 'ya, sister.
Ryan is such a cutie! I just want to pinch those cheeks!
TCG went back to work today. I wish he would take one more day out. He was obviously still in pain.
