2 weeks is not so far away. That will be here in no time.
Andi, how weird and scary.

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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Oh poor Ryan. Well, a boo-boo or an owie is only good for garnering sympathy--he's got that part right!
sj, I hope they get this cleared up well and quickly.
Andi, I'm so glad Daniel is making concrete progess. How are you?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Andi, I'm so glad Daniel is making concrete progess. How are you?
Now that the biggest weight of worry is gone, I feel a lot better, too. I'm still stressed by the driving (and I'm pretty sure I need to do something about my muffler soon). But I'm definitely a lot more cheerful.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Glad to hear Daniel is improving!

I can say for sure that house on top of a mountain in France is awesome! My updates will be brief and sporadic because I will only have WiFi when I'm at the house, but I can't believe that I'm still going to be here for almost two more weeks! The weather is perfect, there is much to see, the food and wine are wonderful, the house has a hot tub, wish you all were here!
Andi, I'm so glad to hear Daniel's turned a corner!
I echo Raq's recommendation of Pinterest. And I'm there under my real name, too, though I don't expect I'll be using it much until I get back. But it's awesome. And I'm amyth on Tumblr.
sj, hope you're feeling better soon.

Thanks, everyone.
WS, I really don't like it either. I will be calling my doctor furst thing this morning.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
So, remember how I was annoyed that the department had scheduled my students into six different buildings for their midterm, and I was told that there would be a proctor in each room and that I should float among the rooms? The midterm is tonight. I just learned that there aren't enough proctors. Nobody at the department seems to know how to fix this -- everybody is scrambling to rearrange people to make sure there's at least one person in charge in each room, but so far, we're still short several people.

Thrive to spite them
Andi I'm glad Daniel is doing better!
Hil that sucks.
And I'm an idiot. I had my rent money in cash this weekend and instead of giving it to my landlady (who is upstairs) I wrote a check and then deposited the money this morning.
Only she deposited the check before I deposited the money so I overdrafted. But it's covered and she won't know it over drafted, however it did cost me $25 for my stupidity. Or my Benadryl haze, since I'm taking those as soon as it's recommended by the package (and the dose I took early this morning when I woke up itching has already run out so I'm not waiting for the effects to kick in)
I can't make an appointment with my urologist yet because they are in a meeting or something and the answering service is on.
The only good thing about this morning is my chest congestion is gone so I'm over my cold.

And I'm amyth on Tumblr.
Except that tumblr doesn't allow you to look up people by the name of their tumblr from what I can see. It's most frustrating.

Mostly lurking...
Oh, askye, I had that happen with something else last week. Only my overdraft fee is $35. It's a very nice stupidity tax.
