Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness. Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

YAYAY Suela!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm so jealous, Kat.

Suela, that IS good news. Will certainly make the move easier.

Hee, hi, drunkyville, how's the weather over there?

Pleasantly chilly, and sunny during the days. And only spinning indoors.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

So I forget if I've shared my good news: by virtue of persistence (I assume) and new meds (yay benzodiazepines), my mother has agreed explicitly to move to the new assisted living facility. So, yay.

That's amazing! I mean, I know that it probably won't be an easy path to end up there still but it's a huge step from her last reaction.

I really hope the benzos continue helping with your mom and that you can get them moved with minimal pushback. It's really a good choice and it's hard to watch you want to help and her fighting from misgivings that are not based in reality but probably very real to her.

Most of the language configurations I've used have been a bit shy of complete, and there are always keyboard to screen issues--if you give someone a Hindi keyboard, how do you start using English features?

They weren't superclear on their parameters. I assumed Hindi interface but probably just a basic translation. Unless there are a lot of native interfaces for Hindi that I don't know. But the kids were given something of a native interface and went to IE instead.

And most of the web is English by default. There was an interesting part of the article talking about how this could increase Hindi content exponentially. And not because the kids would necessarily want it, because people would see them as a target market.

I don't even have real feels on CW shows currently. I watch a lot of them, but I can't try to logic my way out of most.

To take my students, all 307, on a field trip... It would cost $25 for all of them. I kinda want to schedule a trip for Noah and grace's school.

How so little, Kat? Wouldn't they need to rent a few buses? Although now you mention it, that's a hella cool field trip. Must rec to the kids' teachers.

Maybe she means $25 per student.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

So yeah, whole house up and awake 4am. the actual fuck? Dog had woken me up twice before turns out she is a little sick and needed out. I think she peed in my room also. Something peed anyway. Once mc had been woken up, then he was convinced he heard people in the house or trying to get into the house and he was up and down and up and down, so then Bailey thought it was time to play. I gave up. This afternoon is going to suck.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh. At least it's Friday?

YAY FRIDAY.

Oh, this will be funny to some people: Last night at chorus, I heard a woman talking about getting her Yuletide assignment. I'm still not sure if she meant some seasonal musical thing or the fic thing.
