It probably would be more effective to complain if you signed up. Unfortunately.
I'm just trying to tell you that we have nothing in common besides both of us liking your penis.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
The weather is nice here today. Wish I could go out and enjoy it, but there's that pesky work thing...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So I got a work invite to an employee assistance program seminar (not weird), titles Clean living". It mentions "detox". Is it wrong for me to sign up for it simply so that if it is full of bullshit fake science I can complain? Because...
That seems all right.
After work, I went and saw an old friend giving a talk on campus, which was very cool, except the best parts were in French. Which I don't speak. Ah well.

Tep, my sock recommendation are the short sockwells (unless you have a thing with wool). They do not slide and they are a little compressiony around my arch which helps with plantar fasciitis.

Oddly enough, I can't wear wool sweaters or scarves, but I'm fine with wool socks.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Ugh. Emmett has mono and he's had to go to the ER twice in two nights. Four hours last night (to confirm he didn't have strep on top of Mono.) And he's back tonight because he's coughing up blood. (Most probably because his tonsils are raw and inflamed.)
Poor guy. And he's got a final tomorrow. A biology final! You can't fluff your way through a bio final!

If he has mono and is coughing up blood, I'm pretty sure he can ask to get the test postponed.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
Any decent bio prof would let him make up the final. (As I like to tell my students, "That's not the type of microbiology I want us to be doing!")

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I assured him as much but he's still stressing about it.
He got x-rays and a blood draw but he hasn't seen a doctor yet.
I know he really just wants to crawl back into bed and sleep for 18 hours.

Oh, poor Emmett. Mono is not fun (been there, done that). Hoping for a speedy recovery.
