Hil, I am so in awe of your job-application-fu.
Zoe: Don't think it's a good spot, sir. She still has the advantage over us. Mal: Everyone always does. That's what makes us special.

[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Once I got everything organized, it was much easier. The annoying ones that I finished up today were the ones where I need to submit all the application materials through the school's website, which means I have to retype all my info for each one.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Yay, Hil! Good for you.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I think this signifies definite opening of flood gates.
I'm tearing up for you at the thought. Truly. So much of the time love gets the better of people.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Yay Seska!
The only thing I know about television concussions is that whatever weird thing you do after getting smacked on the noggin (usually amnesia, but sometimes an accent or thinking you're Mr. Howell, occasionally blindness) gets un done when you get whapped again -- often in comically similar circumstances.
Or thinking you're a high schooler again, a la Twin Peaks.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Dang. In real life, we never get the fun concussions.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

And that one comes with superstrength!

My fiancee's father just agreed to come to our wedding.
Yay!

I'm pretty sure Nadine had the superstrength before the amnesia.
My slightly annoying news of the day: the chair I ordered got lost in shipping somewhere. The customer care person wanted to know if I wanted to reorder. I told him/her (it's via email) that I'd be happy to reorder if it was at the same sale price and my payment for the first order could be applied to it. S/he is going to look into that. It's not like the chair's the only thing that's going to keep my butt from the carpet, but it's still a tad irritating that they can't keep track of a freakin' recliner. I mean, Amazon regularly ships me books 1/100th the size of the chair, and they haven't lost one yet.

Apparently, I'm prone to vaso-vagal reactions
I am prone to vasovagal episodes as well, and my doctor told me that when I noticed myself in a phase of being light-headed on standing up (she said it's a cyclical thing for those of us prone to them), that I should eat more salty foods. I about died laughing when later telling people I'm under doctor's orders to eat more salt.

Two more school days, then two weekend days, then Thanksgiving break! (I'm going home a little early because I need to get my drivers license renewed and go to the dentist.)
