Honestly, you meet the most appalling sort of people....

[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.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Bummer. Walking it is, then.

Good choices-ma for J, Scrappy.

Oh, forgot to say before, yay for kitty-returnage as well, Strix.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh dear, Scrappy. I hope they are able to change his seat. It would be a bummer to miss the event, but that is a hella long flight to not be able to easily move around.

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

I've started the deed in lieu of foreclosure process for the house in Frederick. I feel sick.

Always Anti-fascist!

That is a little nerve-wracking Scrappy.

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

Ugh Scrappy, hope they can accommodate him. It seems like a very reasonable request.

And double ugh, Maria. This too shall pass, but ugh!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Scrappy, it's a known risk of flying, surely they will understand and switch his seat with someone else's. And if not, may he keep his word and come home!

Maria, so sorry you have to deal with all that.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

ugh, Maria. I sympathize a lot.

I just want it over with. I can't keep paying, and I don't want to be a landlord. I should have done this a few months ago, but I couldn't. And I'm deathly afraid that Bank of America is going to say no.

Scrappy, safe flying~ma for your DH.

Maria, I'm sorry.

TCG went to a local poetry event tonight. I didn't feel like going.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Ugh, Maria.

I am so glad that I can sleep in tomorrow. I've been exhausted the last few days.

Also, as usual when I get to this section of calculus, I totally freaked out my students today by saying, "There isn't any rule or set of steps to follow here. You just have to look at each individual problem and figure out what's happening." They don't believe me. They think that, since this is math, there must be a rule to follow, and that I'm just not telling it to them as some kind of educational thing. Many of them seem convinced that they don't need to learn what's involved in the "figure out what's happening" part, because they're sure that I'm going to tell them the rule in the next class, and then they'll have wasted their time on all that thinking.
