I managed an average lap speed of just under 55s. For 48 laps. WOOOHOO.
I'll see your WOOOHOO and raise you a FUCKYEAHSWIM!
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Shrift, that sounds alarmingly like what Aims had. And she ended up with a concrete dx for something yucky iirc.
Ah, crap. I remember something about whooping cough? Was that it, or was it something else?
That was it. Which was totally horrible. Get thee to the doctor, ASAP!!

Hi, Aims!
So is a diagnosis of concrete in the lungs, which is how I initially interpreted "concrete dx".
This totally made me laugh out loud. So, thank you for that.

Hi javachik! How are you?

I am good, especially since I get to go meet Consuela for dinner and drinks despite my sin today (lying).
ETA: Today's sin reminded me why I so extremely rarely lie (I mean, on top of it just being wrong most of the time). Well, and, other than I am terrible at it. I don't lie because it usually comes BACK TO BITE ME IN THE ARSE.

SINNER!
I also sinned today. I thought mean thoughts about a student of mine. Right after she kicked me and hit me with her chair.

Speaking of sinning, I still haven't decided what I'm giving up for Lent. My upcoming trip makes a lot of things not really feasible or enough of a sacrifice.
ETA: Aims, I admire your restraint.

Oh, honey. I am going to hell, because I have one student who I constantly want to punch in the nuts. He is just an utter PITA. In a mean way, not a normal teenage boy way. And it's not just me.
I would not DO it. But I THINK it.

Only thoughts? Then I think you're closer to a saint than a sinner.
I'm back from smonster's Mardi Gras fundraiser. It's still going strong (actually, I think it was revving up as I was getting ready to leave), but 3 hours of extrovert time is my limit. I listened to nice music and drank yummy booze, and I got to give beads to lots of people. I played chess with a cute young fella and ate jambalaya. We all watched a recording of smonster's interview (she was fabulous, as expected) and played "Bead the Bieber". There was a life-size (ish) cardboard Justin Bieber stature, tons of beads, and booze. The inevitable inev-ed.

I was just at the doctor on Thursday, I swear! I think this is just a terrible cold, but if I have any trouble breathing, develop bruising, or boot again, I'll make a doctor's appointment ASAP.
