I was reading aloud bits of what he wrote to my roommate, so she would understand why I'm so nutty about him.
Heh, we did NOT have a conversation like that!
Mal: We're still flying. Simon: That's not much. Mal: It's enough.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
So he lies to get out of doing something, then lies to cover that he lied. Apparently it didn't occur to him that people often talk to one another.
The cable guy lied to Jon on Thursday that he had been in a wreck, and then lied to whoever Jon called that no one had been home. How did he think he was going to get away with that?

Spicy brains, not spicy talk. Why non-profits rely on income equality and privilege disparities to exist. Etc.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm giving my students a quiz tomorrow. They have a quiz in my class every Wednesday. Both this week and last week, several students have asked me if they could take the quiz on Friday instead, because they've got a lot of other things going on in other classes and won't have time to study. Every single one of them has been really surprised when I said no, and a few of them tried to argue it. I really can't imagine asking that in college. (I have found that saying "It's your responsibility to schedule your time to complete the work in all the courses you registered for" will usually get the arguing to stop, but really, it should stop at "No, you need to take the quiz on Wednesday.")

Hil, I think part of the job of teaching is teaching student what the expectations are. Again and again in some cases.

Hil, I think part of the job of teaching is teaching student what the expectations are. Again and again in some cases.
I remember one prof in college who, towards the end of the semester, came in with his own college diploma and held it up and said, "Do you know what this means to potential employers?"
After a few students called out things like "Skills!" or "Knowledge!" and whatnot, the prof said, "No! It means one thing: over the past 4 years, you have learned how to survive in a bureaucracy, which makes you employable."
He was a bitter old cynical dude, but I don't disagree with him.

I'm having some tests done tomorrow morning to try to figure out why my iron is so low. Nothing serious, but I'm nervous and would love some of that powerful buffista ~ma.
