Apparently everybody else has also been having issues with the admin person who told me "complaining won't change anything," too. She doesn't really know how to organize the exams, which is understandable since this is her first semester doing it, but she gets really rude and huffy whenever anyone asks her about something she doesn't know.

[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Thanks, everyone. It looks like, for the next exam, my students will just be divided between two classrooms, and those classrooms are next to each other.

sj, I can't remember where you are, but that is one of the best things about being a Buffista -- there are almost always friends nearby. :)
I'm originally from RI and now living in MA, but CT isn't all that far.

Hil, what an awful situation. I'm glad you made it through it, and I hope you don't pay for it too much tomorrow pain-wise.
My fever appears to be gone, just the pain in my ear and a scratchy throat now. Lets hope this holds up because I have too much to do in the next couple of days to be sick. I'm also hoping the ear pain eases up before I have to get on the plane Thursday night.

I think I want a drink, but all I have is beer, and it's too cold to drink beer.

no, it's really not. All it requires is a modicum of organization and sense. How could it not occur to her to try to schedule all of the same instructor in the same building?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Good luck, Vortex!!
Hil, I still can't believe that craziness. Glad you got through it, and that all the proctors showed!
Here's an idea: make a menu, day by day, of what you'd cook with all that and what else you'd need to do said cooking. Only after you write all that out are you allowed to buy it.
I know that this is what I need to do. Menu planning is totally something I need to work on. Not going to happen tonight, though. So I guess no purchasing veggies (have to pre-purchase for delivery).

I really need to work on menu planning too. I get lazy or run out of ideas once I have the veggies and then some of them go bad before I get to them.

it's too cold to drink beer.
I know all the individual words, but together they make no sense.
