Willow ,'Empty Places'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
[link] so David Oyelowo makes all sorts of great points in this, and does it with humor and passion and all sorts of stuff, and two things:
Thing one: right, that's why I lost interest in Spooks/MI-5 after Danny.
Thing two: please, David Oyelowo, make an audio recording of the phone book.
GRE achieved with a score of 166 verbal (about 96th percentile) and 161 math (about 80th percentile). I parked in a deck where the arms were up when I got there, but down when I got out, and I had no swipe card to exit. A kind college student swiped me out.
It's a trap!
Congrats on GRE achievement.
Good job, Kiba!
I really don't intend to ever take that stupid test again.
Congrats on acing the GRE, Kiba! Also on never having to take the stupid test again.
My BF and I just booked a hotel room in London for New Year's. We'd been talking about going back and we decided to just do it. Hopefully in 11 months I can have enough money saved to actually afford it! Yikes. No more non-necessary purchases for a while.
Way to go, Kiba!
Yay travel plans, Zen!
I am so angry at Excel right now I can't work. It just decided I can't save files. Ctrl-S -> whirling cursor thingy -> message box telling me file cannot be saved. I just lost so much work.
But I have tea. Lipton, but still.
Also mildly miffed that our group meetings with the department, uh, I forget her title, director? Anyway, those will now be every 8 weeks instead of once a month, and will be on Mondays, which is my busiest day full of deadlines and incoming data, at 11, when I would prefer to take my lunch. It's not filling me with confidence that our management team is in touch with us workers (the ostensible purpose of these meetings, keeping communication lines open).
I keep finding myself caught in between our Dean (who was a partner is a big law firm with lots of $$ to spend) and our university technology department (not a lot of money to spend), and it is making me wish I could get the flu for a week so I could bow out of the current fight for services. le sigh
Also, I have been arranging my kid's summer, and some of the camps are already full, so now I have three weeks where I need a new plan.
Yay, Kiba Rika!
Boo hiss, nasty extra-long commutes!
