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

Calling all teachers! This is a really neat story: My Favorite Liar.

What made Dr. K memorable was a gimmick he employed that began with his introduction at the beginning of his first class:

"Now I know some of you have already heard of me, but for the benefit of those who are unfamiliar, let me explain how I teach. Between today until the class right before finals, it is my intention to work into each of my lectures...one lie. Your job, as students, among other things, is to try and catch me in the Lie of the Day."

And thus began our ten-week course.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I can't seem to lose any weight. It's irritating. And by irritating, I mean SHRIFT SMASH.

I'm kinda amazed by the text-messaging revolution wrt donations. I mean, that's ideal. It's impulse-driven, allows a person to give incrementally, and give often as emotions are engaged.

So cause of meetings and apocalypses, I only have to work 5 hours tomorrow or my bosses get cranky. So. I should go to bed now, sleep in and leave early, right?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sounds like a good plan to me.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

From WAY back,

I won't lie: I miss the 8/10 I was a couple years ago, but I'd really just be happy to live my life out as a 12.

I miss my pre-pregnancy, post-life-altering diet size 4. But even if I lost the weight everything fits differently now. I just wish I felt better in general.

I forgot to watch Bones tonight. Was it worth tracking down a way to watch it?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

How do you feel about Angela? She gets a lot of screen time. But I'm totally not one to judge.

I went and rewatched Reid's closing scenes from CM last night. He was great. He owned the last fifteen minutes.

Slow night here tonight.

My sister sent me an email about what people are doing in Jamaica for Haiti. There's a big sense of "there but for the grace of god" since we're on the same fault line. They're sending stuff. I felt bad, but I sent her bon's link.

I like her, but more the old version than the new one.
