A guy I wouldn't sleep with at university wrote a character with my name in his scintillating sci fi fantasy book. (It hinged upon demon and daemon and UNIX and eunuchs sounding the same--good times!). My character was blinded in a horrible accident. Which I was supposed to find flattering enough to drop trou.
Then again, this was the same guy that hacked the university email, read mine, and tried to make me feel bad for telling friends in emails that I didn't like him. Last time I found a picture of him it was a FB icon with him with an apparently hot, taller than him, chick on each arm.
Man, I missed that window. So sad.
Ha I totally only watch that show when I'm home sick, but that seems to always coincide with a marathon? I dunno.
The bio is fabulous.
Today my students all blew off the day. One even left both her new bass and the old guitar it was replacing. I don't even.
Next week's the party, so I guess I'm giving up for the year?
The cheerleader candidates just got a lecture about how to eat right. That was depressing.
The fitness guy is named Jay. Is it a rule that all sidekicks on reality shows need to be named Jay?

In that situation, I'd have told him to wait and see how he likes the e-mails I'd be sending to whoever was in charge of student e-mail privileges and academic honor codes at the university, because they'd be considerably less kind.
So, on my way home from work there was a police checkpoint--they were ticketing everyone who was not wearing a seatbelt.
Of course, I always wear my seatbelt. But I haven't seen a police checkpoint in decades....
On the way home there was an ultra-fancy sportscar-coupe, which I couldn't figure out what kind it was. All it had for an emblem was a rearing horse, which I don't know. Clues?

He went on to TA me a year or so later, and I clearly remember being given 2 points on one the last assignments with the note "Merry Christmas!"
I was an amoral enough little shit at that time to take the extra grade and run with it, because he'd been trying to make me feel guilty for disliking him (I was young--I thought honesty like "I am not interested in you. I don't even like you as a person." would suffice to end the pursuit). So, yeah, I thought the bump of grades was the least I deserved.
I'd do it differently now, though. I'd have shut him down much more harshly (although I still don't know how that would be possible), and I'd have spat the spare grades back in his face,

Theo? Ferrari?
Speaking of exotic sports cars, have people seen this?
