Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

[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.

Our wings are not tired

The alarm did feel like it went off too early this morning. I finished up laundry and finally got to bed around 2:30 AM and was up at 8 AM so that I could be ready to work on SpongeBob this morning.

I fell asleep at about 11 and the alarm went off at 5:15. After babysitting I have to go home finish laundry and pack for the beach.

ND, how is your mom?

Ugh. I had a really difficult talk with my manager yesterday. My department is just wrapped up in politics right now and from all appearances about to be in a world of shit. I was really upset when we talked yesterday and now we have a call scheduled this morning and I need to revisit some of what I said (and bring up some other ugly issues) with hopefully a tinge less hysteria than yesterday.

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.

Oh, Brenda, that is of the suck. Work~ma for you.

I should probably call my sister today and find out. I haven't had any updates from her so hopefully she's okay.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I just accidentally sent an email to the wrong person. It was supposed to be an email to my supervisor, asking what to do about a particular student, because he wants to retake the final, and he reasons don't really fit into any of the guidelines for whether I should say yes or no. I sent the email to the student instead. There wasn't really anything in there that I didn't want the student to see, but I still feel dumb.

Now I want internet links to my laundry equipment. Awesome.

Hil, the student probably assumed you were keeping him in the loop.

Work~ma and Health~ma to thems that need it.

Still crazed here. Need vacation.

Sorry brenda. ~ma on the work front for you.

Hil, I've totally done stuff like that before, so I feel your pain. I'm more likely to send embarrassing things to the wrong people (considering the things I email to some people, I DON'T WANT TO CROSS THE STREAMS) due to inattention and auto-complete on my gmail.

Hil, that is embarrassing, but at least you'll be able to say "wasn't my decision"?

Brenda, how stressful! I hope you have relaxing weekend plans.
