Jayne ,'The Message'
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.
I have compromised and am working from home today because it's too cold. I'm not sure how much actual work I'll get done today, but maybe more coffee will help.
I was tempted to call in sick today because I am so tired. But I ended up sleeping late and driving to work. But now I find I cannot brain, despite two cups of tea.
I was vaguely thinking that I wanted cherry danish this morning (actually a cherry cheese danish but I'm not sure that even exists as a thing outside my head) and then my boss randomly brought in assorted pastries. Everything is coming up -t!
But on the bright side, Hec just sent me the complete recordings of Josie and the Pussycats. So the day is looking up.
My day is not, as I keep getting emails that make me want to punch people in the face.
Quiet phone~ma, Susan.
I've pretty much wrapped up my presentation for the interview I have in NW Michigan on Wednesday. At some point today I want to get a walk in and make some soup. And then the packing.
Poor, poor Cumberbatch: his acting talent was unequal to the task of putting a believable smile on his face when Redmayne's name was called.
Being English got them both Oscar Points, but disabled is going to beat out gay.
My don't wanna for the day mostly revolves around grading. I am completely spent, the weekend drained me. Too bad, so sad, as the voice in my head keeps telling me.
Cumberbatch played Hawking, too, though. Hawking, on BBC in 2004. For which he was nominated for a BAFTA.
If someone could explain to me how it's already 1:30, that would be great. JFC, where did the morning go?
I'm editing an article about the perceptions observers have of personality traits of women who've had plastic surgery; the article doesn't use the literal phrase "resting bitch face," but it might as well. I laugh every time I come across the tactful phrasing of "resting expression perceived as unwelcoming."
It would be nice if the people who back up my accounts actually looked at them when I'm not here. This is why I don't often take time off.
Speaking of - 11 more work days to my vacation
