So, did you all hear about the awful fraternity at University of Oklahoma and the racist chanting? The national fraternity has cut ties but the university president just stepped it up:

Boren said SAE residents would have to remove their possessions and vacate the house "by midnight tomorrow."

At today’s news conference, Boren added that he doesn't plan on helping the displaced residents find housing.

"That's not our responsibility," he said. "We don't provide student services to bigots."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

So that thing where if someone interrupts you it takes you 25 minutes to get back to whatever you were doing is really biting my butt today. Not to mention I am annoyed at my co-worker whining "when you make changes that affect our reports will you notify us?" when I have EVERY SINGLE TIME she just didn't do what I told her to back in January. ARGH.

Well done indeed.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Not in publications, but the theatre artistic director makes all these schedules and documents, and he abbreviates EVERYTHING to the point that I can hardly read it.

He sounds like he's an ex-Microsoft person, because the amount of acronyms made up and used at random there is impossible to keep track of.

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

Burrell, how soon can you get it checked?

I'm supposed to get my skin checked every 6 months regardless, and the next is scheduled to be in 2 months. I could probably call up and get that rescheduled for earlier, but my dermatologist is busy so probably still a month wait. And I definitely want to see my guy because he has a reputation for being able to diagnose cancer on sight with a ridiculous degree of accuracy.

Just caught a lizard in the house.

Seriously, I got two cats here, and I'm the one who catches the lizard?!?

We used to have a LOT of tailless lizards running around.

The cats are probably saying to each other "Two-legs finally caught one!"

I could send you my son. He and his BF like nothing better than to run around catching lizards (green anoles, which despite not being rated for our climate are very abundant in our neighborhood).
