Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

studied classical Greek
This sounds awesome.
I'm SO lucky there's internet, even if the computer is basically useless otherwise. I really should write something or study something. It'd be a much better use of my time.

Very lucky there's internet! I was temping right after college and a lot of places had blocked the web...and some had even blocked solitaire! Sad.

Hah--I was just thinking last night that I really should take the fan out of my window, because it's too cold here now (a week after our very brief "summer")

I had a temp job that was scheduled for 2 days but the work itself took 3 hours to accomplish. Unfortunately, the guy who had ordered the job admitted he had no clue how long it was supposed to take and was not willing to have me sitting doing nothing for a day and a half.
The work involved typing a report from ten minutes of dictation. The guy must have only had experience with people who typed 20 words a minute or something. He got someone who, at the time, was typing 103 WPM and had spent the previous eight years doing transcripts of recorded TV and radio shows. The only reason it took me three hours was because I left a word out of the letter and I was working on an ancient Selectric instead of a word processor.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The brow thing? You did.
I am evidently overly irritated. My brows, however, look faboo. More tended than I ideally want (I want them to look like they grew perfect, see), but the shape is a good shape, and the weight is a good weight, and somehow they look darker now than before. Much better than when I had them done (also cheaply) last time (in January, because I'm not good at being a girl).

Because books.

I need to have it done at some point. But I'm scared of the pain.
I have RuPaul's Drag Race on, and it occurs to me a new version of The Match Game would be hysterical.

I decided to attempt to do something productive, so I am on math.com trying to teach myself basic algebra and my brain is already crying.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I've been growing my brows out, and now I'm scared of letting anyone trim them! It's been like five months!

I just got starred on gizmodo for talking about naked pictures. I fail to get the gawker network.
