I found ibuprofen... albeit six months expired. Decisions, decisions.

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.
O HAI TEP. Cool, thanks.
Also I'd totally take six months expired ibu.

Oh, hell yes.
But I think we've established that Cass and I are as one in our cavalier attitude towards medication.

And both still totally alive and snarking. We win.
Nothing real close by but if I had thought of it early enough, I would have gone to Descanso Gardens today.
Spidra, once things calm down for me (a couple of weeks), I'd love to go with you.
P-C, no India. So sayest me.
Smonster, just stop talking. Wait. It works wonders. The hands thing works to get attention, but it doesn't work as well if the problem is side conversation (plus, it reinforces the idea that it's ok for them to talk while you are, which it isn't). I also use Vortex's "Do you have a question?" method. I am also the master of the teacher stinkeye. It works especially well when paired with patient silence.
Hil, remind the class calmly at the beginning of the next class that you need their attention and respect, and you will ask anyone who persists in listening to music while you lecture to leave. Then follow through. That's unacceptable and rude, and they need to learn that there are consequences to rudeness.
Barb congrats on the 4**** review! Woot!
Steph, sorry about your uncle. And I say this with tongue in cheek, and hope you see it as a light-hearted attempt. But. Um. At least it's not the 4th! We made it to the 18th! That's progress, right? If that trend continues, maybe we'll skip November, and December will just forget about this habit.
P-C, the choice is yours, but I would think the trip would be a bad idea. However, the doctor gal sounds promising. Maybe exchange stories about the "wonderful" experience and see who has the worst?
There was more. But I should be working. Off to Lowes and Frys to buy stuff for work. Woot. (actually, boring, but better than paperwork).
Oh, forgot to say to Hil, maybe next semester, put in syllabus all electronic devices not approved for class will be confiscated FOREVER! Then think of the cool holiday gifts you can give out. OK, maybe a bit extreme. But at least put SOMETHING in the syllabus. In the meantime, follow advice of other teachers. But be firm! Show no fear. Remember, you are the authority.
Sunil, only go to India with your parents if you like the idea of fighting and them foisting brides on you.
