Sleep helped the rage some. Not helpful: hotel blow dryer that only has "low" as an option and wouldn't dry a baby's hair.
Fingers crossed today magic happens and people do the right things. Please baby jebus.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Oh, and AFTER I had the mammo, my sister told me we DID have a history of breast cancer
Only about 10 percent of breast cancers are hereditary. I think the amount of coverage of women like Angelina Jolie, who does have cancer-related genes, lulls women who don't have breast cancer in their families into a false sense of security.
Oh, dear, Meara. That sounds like trying to get my sister to do something on the computer.

supposed to have some magical truck up my sleeve
Loving the visual on this typo. "Log on to the *G*D* system or I will run your *M*F*-ing asses DOWN!"
Also, hi all! 2 classes down for my Master's (A & A-), 10 to go. November and December off because of scheduling SNAFU and I'm so glad! Needed the break! Going to dance class tonight for the first time in an age.
Hugs & ~ma to those that need.
Sits down to enjoy the shimmy.
Gets back up to join the shimmy.

Hah! Having a truck up my sleeve would be bad with rage!
Luckily today's visit is going much better. They worked out their computer literacy lack, and are being perfectly pleasant and reasonable about all the other issues, which are minor. Whew!!!

What kind of dance class, Epic? Sounds fun!
(Yesterday's people are still on my shit list but today's people are not. Also less stressful to try to catch a flight home (where it doesn't so much matter when I get there) vs driving through LA to catch a plane to be HERE on time.

Our wings are not tired.
Whew is right! Enjoy the shimmy anyway.
Well done on proceeding with the Masters, Epic. Enjoy the break.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Refresh my memory; what are you getting your Master's in? A & A makes me think of Art & Archeology, but I think I'm getting that from an Atwood novel set in the 60's!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Strix, I think the A & A- were her grades.
And a break sounds like a good idea, Epic.

Tonight's class is Irish Ceili (pronounced kayley, in case anyone wondered) dance. I'm looking forward to the dancing and the social time very much! Won't make either of the classes available on Friday (Swing or Vintage Partner Dance - or both if I can swing the timing) due to influx of trick-or-treaters, but that will be something to look forward to next week
Luckily today's visit is going much better. They worked out their computer literacy lack, and are being perfectly pleasant and reasonable about all the other issues, which are minor. Whew!!!
Excellent news! No need to unleash the truck!
what are you getting your Master's in? A & A makes me think of Art & Archeology
Maria got it - A and A- are grades, A in Theories of Behavior Change, A- in Creative Leadership. The Master's is in Human Behavior.
And a break sounds like a good idea, Epic.
Bestest idea ever! (Seriously, the stress was dragging me down. Need to get back the old time management/study skills)Just gotta make sure I remember to go back after the break!
