Magic muffin: Thanks for the ref, Matt. I don't think i can use anything not human, though. I'm not good enough to translate anything over.

I might suggest using The Dying Gaul and adding arrows to taste...

Timelies all!

My friend's party was fun. I ended up watching Hairspray the musical, 10 Things I hate about you and A Midsummer's Night Dream(which I had seen when it came out in the theater, but that was 12 years ago.).

Thanks, Matt.although he's probably less recognizable than the saint, I'm probably overestimating señor Sebastian's popularity. I don't remember why i know him. It's probably random and not indicative of jack.

The nurse (and those supporting him) have gone off shift, so now I'm just hoping my third dose will not be my last. Jesus, stupidity.

He was abusing 15-17 aged girls.

How many?

There were 2 girls in the original charges, but this man had been teaching in the district for 19 years. I seriously doubt these were the first 2. My good friend taught with him and suspected him of inappropriate behavior but had no proof. She tried to get some when one day she walked in on him with a student at school. Later that day, she walked in on him with the second student. She reported him to DCFS and so began the legal ramifications.

At the time he was caught, the 2 girls were 18, but he had been having "relationships" with them for 2-3 YEARS.

I am doing things around the house in really stupid order. I have yet to put the laundry in, but I did clean my bathroom, including the miniblinds, which was a huge pain in the ass. I have determined that the bathroom will never be perfectly clean in the corners, which sort of makes me sad and sort of makes me give up on it. I do think I might paint in there at some point soonish.

Am roasting the hated eggplant.

Also put up a little knick-knack shelf. I need to go to the hardware store for more thingies to put up the other one. I couldn't put anything in the walls in my old place (a lot of brick + cement), so I am going a little crazy here. I hope it doesn't bite me in the ass when I move out....

Hercules hooks! They're the world's best as-seen-on-tv product ever, and make me totally believe all the infomercials for everything ever must have absolute veracity.

But seriously, they're the best. Weird looking hook, you just stick it in the drywall and twist, and then you can hang whatever; they hold an amazing amount. And when you pull them out, there's a barely noticeable little pinprick of a hole.

Okay, I am avoiding church and driving to Albuquerque with the SO to help him pick up the rest of his gear in order to get my office whipped into shape so the bank inspector people can come out tomorrow. Well, call tomorrow, but last time they called, they said, can we come out at 1:00 and I was all, uh, no. I realize they are not inspecting my cleanliness, just where I'll be using their device, but still.

Remind me to lock their checks and stuff away in the lockable filing cabinet that I have but don't always remember to use.

I don't want to trick them or anything, my office is what it is, and if it's not secure enough, then fine. But I also don't want to look like a complete lunatic. A slovenly lunatic.

So I think I better get started with timers or I will procrastinate the rest of this day away. I have no idea how to start.

I am intrigued! But it's too late; all the holes are made. For the time being, at least.

I have decided to watch more GoT while the laundry runs and the eggplant cools.

I have no idea how to start.

Lock their checks and stuff away! Then see what's near there.
