Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Well, if not your existence, your taste at least.

So long as they don't get pinned to a board labeled "I can't believe someone likes this."

So, there's been a broiling kerfuffle about display of a confederate flag at the place I went to college, and it hit Inside Higher Ed this week. And it turns out I know one of the students displaying the confederate flag - she was in the summer seminar I teach 2 years ago. I would completely not have expected her to do such a thing, or to double down once people expressed that it was offensive to them. I am basically just full of boggle right now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes.

You guys, I am so relieved that my boss told me not to schedule a meeting on Monday. We are supposed to get Columbus Day off, but of course most of the people I'm working with are in other countries, so I figured I should suck it up. But no! I am off the hook. Phew.

If only they weren't $60. I'll have to be content with my ahemmed copies from YouTube.

Wow. Just had a breakdown with ugly crying over...I don't even know. And it won't let go. Greatful I work at home cause it burbles up without warning and won't stop.

Aw, Suzi. Deep breaths, and maybe some tea?

Just downed a bottle of water and the tears seem to have subsided. I have karate in 30 minutes and I am going to NEED to hit things.

55 hours...it will be done. The auction will be over, money counted, and DONE.

Karate sounds like a good thing.

You guys, I have so much more work to do today, and I don't know if I have it in me. And I have lots of meetings tomorrow, including three interviews, so not much chance there, either.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!
