Also, VERY tired today. I blame Cass and ita. I stayed up until 3:30 watching the last few eps of Kidnapped.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I think they'd be disappointed in the math tutoring department.

I showed that to my boss (who's Jewish). He didn't know what a Golem was!
Hahaha. I love that.
In news apropos of nothing, I think Parenthood may be giving me an existential crisis. I really am liking that show. I like the depiction of their struggles and their search for identity. I am feeling all "search for identity" myself these days, what with inadvertently trying to represent myself to the roommate/intern and all.
Even I know what a Golem is. Granted, I learned it by watching television.
No prehensile tail. It's hard enough to keep up with all the ragged hems and shed buttons; I'm not altering all your pants.
Easy solution: no pants!
Liese, I think you've responded to my Facebook comments on that show, right? It's a revelation. So MUCH better than I ever expected, with that premise. The acting and writing is so much above what the "family drama" material usually results in. It's sublime.
Argh. the air conditioner guy has been here all fucking day. I'm annoyed because 1) he's behind me so can see my screen. (he's out getting a part or something) 2) I would like to work on a job app, but I don't want to do it where he can see it (not that I really think that's a huge deal, but you'd be surprised at the rumour mill here) and 3) I need to make a dr's appt., but don't want to discuss it on my cell in the hallway (normally not an issue, but there's an event, so people wandering around) or with him here.
Please note! We are looking for a Rabbi to create a Golem: an anthropomorphic being created from inanimate matter from Jewish folk-lore, NOT Gollum: a former Hobbit turned into monster and looking for "precious". This is important! We have no interest in living with Gollum. We want a Golem.
Hee.
They are. I've emailed my niece (soph. at UNC-CH) to ask what the well-appointed dorm room looks like.
Flat screen TV, Target futon, cheap full-length mirror, Target Target Target. And I'm about to see it all end up in the trash next week (sorry, I get a little snippy around move-out time).
Best job my roommate ever had was cleaning out dorms at the end of the year. We got so much great free stuff! Including actual money.
