I will chuck Levine. To my sister, so y'all are out of luck. She's a limpet that gives head.

I will marry Aldis and F Head, simply because Aldis is young and spry and I want to ogle him doing escrima.

I've given up on trying to duplicate the pineapple/carrot/raisin muffin from near work, and instead am focusing on improving the pineapple/carrot/raisin muffin recipe I have. Today was good! I wish I weren't futzing with amounts, though. Because in six months I'll have forgotten where the fudging was happening and how.

Did I post this privacy-strengthening link here before? I'm cleaning up open windows, and although I never got all the way through it, it did give me some news I didn't love, and some stuff got tightened further.

Have JDM and RDJ played brothers in anything?

IN MY BED.

Wait, no--I don't have an incest kink. Would that make inviting Javier Bardem for a foursome creepy?

There was a funny Supernatural fic (well, no the fic was harrowing, it was a funny *bit*) where their life was made into movies, and RDJ played their father, and he was actually in the story.

I will marry Aldis

That man smells amazing and is crazy polite every time I've run across him. Hell yes, you marry him. And his arms.

I was out in the field today and everyone at the firm was recommending the sandwich place downstairs -- does your place start with S-P-E?

OMG, I'd have to C ASH! Which would be sad. But I'd F Levine and M Aldis for sures.

How insane is it to be contemplating applying to grad programs in the UK with one of the major reasons being that UK schools don't require the GRE?

I really wanted to apply for grad programs for next fall, and I kind of completely forgot that the GRE was a thing, and I would need some serious, serious time and effort to be able to get a non-laughable score on the math section. Like, basic algebra sends me into a state of panic.

I'm still completely torn between two completely different fields of study, but this math thing is throwing a further wrench into my plans. I had thought about the UK initially because even though their international student tuition is more than some US schools would be, the majority of Master's programs are only one year, so money would probably be saved in the long run. And now this GRE thing makes it even more appealing.

Dang, I missed 2 days and 300-some posts to grading. That sucked. But grading is almost done, so yay. Small yay, then bed.

zuisa,

GRE prep is possible. I have taught people how to prep for the GRE math section. I think you should not get overly anxious about it.

Take a prep test COLD. See how you do and then start working on the areas on which you need to improve. BTW, there are some grad programs that do not require the GRE.

Also, if you are planning a master's in engineering, the math GRE is obviously important, but I am pretty sure the poets and such discount the other side of the score. (And vice versa; I am sure many of my husband's PhD student colleagues bombed the verbal, especially since many of them were not native English speakers.)
