Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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

I kinda wish I had Steph's morning. My day has been pretty thankless so far. I am trying to get my own grading done while also supporting my daughter as she drama llamas her way through her 30 minutes of math homework. It has taken 3 hours so far, and she still isn't done. We have her complete the work, then check, and if there are crazy numbers of errors we ask her to redo it. We are stuck at that particular point in the loop. She and I both know it's counterproductive at this point, so I'm just letting her mope around the house and not forcing her to work.

Ugh.

I did have to engage a different set of thinking about the Greek Life people, which is healthy for me to not always assume the worse.

I have to say working at a school with a huge Greek presence means I had to recognize and then actively unlearn any stereotypes I had about them.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

If it helps, I came home from drinking mimosas to a mountain of work. SO BORING.

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

Unfortunately, for me, working at a school with a huge Greek presence has mostly reinforced the stereotypes I had about them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was in a sorority.

My chiropractor has a web site and a Facebook page. Did she use those to communicate that she was going to be out of the office for three days? Noooo.

I fear that the Greek system has yet to fail to reinforce my stereotypes.

I finally convinced myself to go outside and take an old computer monitor to Best Buy for recycling. I will reward myself with a stop at the fancy booze store on the way home.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

We're going to have to make a trip to Best Buy for electronics recycling soon.

Guys, from 3/1/14 to today, I've lost 31 lbs. I just randomly checked my Health app, that I update not-so regularly, and...yeah. Huh. Yay exercise and less emotional eating!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Why does H&R Block's website have a "it's been a while since you visited us!" security question after the password? Don't most people only log in to do their taxes once a year?

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

Go, Strix, with the exercise and good eating!
