So my dad came to visit me at my office yesterday, and while he was here he met my boss, a Southern gentleman in or around his 60s. Today my boss walks by my cubicle and says to me, in passing, "Your daddy's kind of cute!"
That... is really not what I was expecting to hear him say!
well, is your dad available?
(hee hee)
It's gettin' all Golden Gays up in thar.
Okay--need to make two calls. One to pain doc to reschedule next week's procedure in favour of an admission I don't have the details of yet, and one to GP to schedule an appointment to order a buttscope.
I'm critiquing a paper by my sister, and I'm trying to work out how not to state something as even a continuum between two diametric points because I think it is better framed as a two dimensional metaphor but I don't know how to express that succinctly. It's not that there's a spectrum of understanding of medicine that runs from folk medicine to standard Western science, but rather they are all points on a plane, but...
How do you say that? Pls help sister? She's trying to save lives.
Under Ambien last night I suggested to Colin we cosplay at SDCC. To his credit, he did entertain the idea, just poitned out that Comicon would kill me. Fair enough, but I'd leave a good-looking corpse. Also, I'm not going to SDCC! That's been sold out for yonks.
perhaps this belongs in white font, but I want to know how soon into the movie Sean Bean's character dies
Today has sucked here, and this made me snort out loud. Thank you for that.
Random hivemind question--do you know what the term "burner phone" means? I used it in an email conversation with an attorney earlier, and she had never heard it before.
I think I watch too much cop TV.
I know, but I watch a lot of cop TV.
My boss isn't even gay! (That I know of. I suppose he could be gay or bi, but I would be very surprised.) And he isn't exactly flirtatious either. He does have a habit of just saying weird stuff, though. Anyway, it made me laugh.
I'd have thought the Katie Holmes divorce caper would have made that term common knowledge.
Things I do not appreciate: getting insulting feedback that includes a condescending (and incorrect!) lecture about realism and perspective from an editor who does NOT have 10 years of art instruction and a quarter century career as a professional illustrator under his belt, as I do.

Yep. But I also watch a lot of procedurals.
