Grading quizzes. A student somehow ended up with an answer of "x=3" on a problem that didn't have an x.
Poor kid... but that's funny.
Stop means no. And no means no. So . . . stop.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
maybe it was a sloppy Y??

ION, tomorrow they say it will 99ºF. My office doesn't have a/c. So not looking forward to that.

Ok, eating BBQ Pringles for dinner since DH isn't home. Yay or nay?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
No. He had an equation, and then on the next line, he just put an x somewhere in the middle of it (I have no idea how he decided where) and then he solved for that x.

Sorry about the roller coaster, Scrappy. I would have thought they would have done a biopsy, since it could be metastasis from her previous cancer. How could they even talk about treatment options without knowing that?

Goodness, Ginger. The universe needs to back off. As do some Atlantean drivers.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
SO MUCH WORSE.
It was bad. I kept going to the webpage automatically, even though logically I knew it was down.
Scrappy, ~ma to your mom. It feels weird to say I hope it's an infection, but given the other option...
The plumber was able to fix our clogged sink fairly quickly, but our sump pump is dead like a dead thing. We're going to have to replace it at some point, but we're hoping we can hold off until January.

{{{Ginger}}} I'm so glad you weren't hurt, but seriously the universe should back off of you.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
No kidding, Ginger! Glad you're okay, though.

I have no idea what a sump pump actually is, but sounds expensive. Good luck, sj.
Ginger, geez! What a pain in the rear. The police report thing seems like the general stupid cost cutting all municipalities have been doing. "you can have all the records you are legally entitled to, but we will charge $8 a page!"
I am hanging out at the airport lounge. I did the one urgent piece of work and am sticking fingers in my ears and shouting "lalalala" to avoid all the rest of it. Though I did just get a recruiter email about a local job...it's a step up, so they probably wouldn't hire me, but it's worth a shot.
