JZ, I am glad your new workplace is so awesome. I hope it continues to be so.
My onerous task for today was an iron infusion. 4 down and (hopefully) only 1 more to go!
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

I think I achieved my onerous task, although the onerous part is trying to psych myself into it, not really the writing.

Is there some very obvious "Contact Me" tab or button that I'm missing if you want to contact a particular Blogspot blogger, or is the only way to do it just to comment on a blog entry?
No, there is not. Yes, it is annoying.
Especially since you then have to post your email publically to allow people to contact you directly (I use my old NYU email that I use here).
If I hadn't added a Contact Me page, I probably never would have been invited out by that other blogger.

Hmmmm, I have bananas and now we have cognac. I'm having a Dave Chapelle moment.

My truly onerous task is to try and finish a fic for a challenge. It's due next Monday and I need to get my two hunks together by then.

Art Crawl!!!
Ha - I defriended people on fb. Not really an onerous task because they had outstayed their welcome.
Also - NYCistas - get art from the Art Vending Machine.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In not-really-onerous news, I finally made the white beans and greens that I have had in my head to make all week, even though I wanted take-out. It's delicious! But may be pasta sauce tomorrow, since I didn't pay enough attention to the recipe and used half the beans but all of the tomatoes. Also used wine cubes out of my freezer! Brilliant.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Thanks, megan. I was feeling like such a moron for not seeing it - you can send people messages on LJ and FB without knowing their email addresses; I just assumed Blogspot must have something similar and I was just failing to see it. Good to know that no, in fact, it mustn't. Good in that extremely annoying way.

I have a question you guys may be able to help me with. Am I remembering correctly or didn't Allyson have sample chapters of Vampire People up somewhere, are those still up and might they include "The Internet Wants Your Daughters"? I have some people on my fl who need to read it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Liese, I am doing onerous tasks tomorrow, since class was canceled (blue jeans for me!)
I will be taking a test to prove that I have the skills that one must have to pass Freshman Comp. (Why, yes, I do have a fairly impressive Bachelor's degree, a Master's Degree, teach at the University level, and am taking this test so that I can take a class that I need to have taken so that I can start a doctoral program in the Fall, but, sure, Community College, I'll pay a hundred bucks and take a test so that you can be certain that I can write a 5-page paper.) t /bitter
I may be going to get my oil changed. By date, I'm past due. By mileage, I've got about 800 miles left.
For sure, I will be doing laundry, grading, and dealing with email.
