Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Msbelle's King Tut, pass it on.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sometimes you feel like a nut?

I read that. I still remember him as Beth's rapey Step-father from Guiding Light.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I read that. I still remember him as Beth's rapey Step-father from Guiding Light.

This is always the first character I thought of when I saw him, and then Angel's molesting father on ATWT.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm having a hard time getting back to work after taking a break for lunch.

Man, I thought this meeting was going to end early, but nooo. I need to go to the bathroom and my stomach is growling.

Librarian Warlord

I have to tell a adjunct faculty member who is currently enjoying special privileges that one of those is being taken away (after 10 years). He has to move out of the office he's had (and he's not getting another one). Vacate? Relinquish? GTFO? what's the least insulting word I could use here? Basically, there's no reason for this except the Dean doesn't want him there, so I can't tell him why, just that he's got to go.
