This is the first time I've left him so long. And he came in the car when my mom dropped me at the airport - so I got the Look of Ultimate Betrayal. ::whimper::
amyth, I LOVE THE PRINCESS. He is the best. Words do not suffice.

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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ha. The Biscuit is brutally casual with our departures now. He loves other dogs, so he thinks the kennel is the best thing in the world. And now we've lost the kennel we really like here in town, so we hire a dog-sitter for him instead, who adores him. When we get back, he's always like, "Oh, hey!" when he sees us, but stays with his head on the dog-sitter's lap. What, no love, dog?

I love that when Calli and A. and C. take care of Lulu when I'm out of town, they send me cell phone pictures and stories about her "adventures." It definitely helps with the separation.
So, THANKS, Calli!

in about an hour, I get to be trained on how to safely drive a golf cart on campus! Woot! I know, it sounds crazy, right? But hey, if it allows me to drive the golf cart around campus, I'll do it!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Looks like I can't go to my sort-of cousin's wedding. (We're not actually related -- my mother's sister is married to her mother's brother -- but we basically treat each other as cousins, and we were on the same alternative spring break trip to Israel a few years ago and got to know each other better.) It's a Sunday night, in Brooklyn, and I just don't think that I can go to a wedding on a Sunday night in Brooklyn and then work on Monday morning in Pennsylvania.
I have been actually productive on my day off. I planned at least one day worth of classes and did a whole bunch of housecleaning. In addition to the usual cleaning stuff, I cleaned out five years worth of splatters inside my microwave (the way the microwave was positioned in my old apartment made it impossible for me to reach inside to clean it), used wood cleaner to clean all my wood furniture, and brought my bike down to the basement, which may have been way more trouble than it was worth. Next step: vacuum the living room, then clean the bathroom, then finish the lesson plan on continuity and complain to my math friends about how this textbook uses an inconsistent definition of continuity at the endpoints of intervals.

I might have some ideas that involve a golf cart and some alcohol.

Not with university golf carts (yikes grounds for firing maybe), but I have done that while golfing. Since I don't golf, I got to drive, and there was lots of beer... Gotta love Thanksgiving Morning golf expeditions.

I have a scar on my right leg from a golf cart accident on campus.
