Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

I survived today. Dinner was weird -- we'd ordered from Chipotle, and they printed out the labels showing everything we'd ordered correctly, but then the actual bowls seemed to contain completely random assortments of ingredients that didn't at all resemble what any of us had ordered. One of them was vegan, though, so I ate that one. Kept my TENS unit on my back for most of the day.

Tomorrow, I'm teaching three classes, and then doing this whole exam thing again. (Today was no classes during the day -- just some meetings and working on stuff.) I'm sort of functional. Not sure how I'll be tomorrow.

Got a bit of sleep. Then rolled over and dislocated my shoulder. So that woke me up. Argh.

Good luck and ~ma, Hil.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ugh, Hil. Good vibes to get through today the best you can.

Our wings are not tired.

~ma for a painless day, Hil.

I got through my morning classes. I apologized to the students for being completely spacey today, said that I would have taken a sick day if there weren't about twenty people who'd murder me if I took a sick day on an exam day, and handed out a worksheet and put the answers on the overhead projector. And fixed several students' calculators. (That was mostly just clearing the memory to restore the factory defaults, because they'd accidentally deleted things they shouldn't have deleted.)

I have a Blue Sun logo patch on my wheelchair side bag. So far, three Chinese people have asked if it's from Japan.

Just got home. It's 12:30. Somehow, "We'll leave at 10 no matter what" became "It's 10, and we're almost done, so let's just finish up," and then that lasted until midnight.

Grrrr, Hil. That's frustrating.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

People are so bad at gauging how long things will take.
