I'm so glad you're able to visit Toddson, Jen! Much love and recovery~ma and pain-management~ma to her.
We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm the hero!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, thanks for the update, JenP! That's good to read. Continuing the Todd~ma

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
figuring out what style writing the professor is looking for can be half the battle, and there is no good way to know
I mean one good way to know would be for the professor to say up front what their expectations are and not make the entire class a ridiculous guessing game with no right answers BUT HEY what do I know I am but a lowly graduate student.

But now you know he's looking for word vomit and rants, so you can give him that, I suppose. Do you get to do some kind of evaluation at some point?

A People person came around and gave everyone in the office (not many today) plastic Easter eggs full of crappy candy that I immediately looked at and thought "I don't want that at all" and yet now I have eaten almost all of it. What's the bad decision mascot, is it a mongoose?

Ugggggh and then I asked him a pretty nuanced question about citations (my source in this case is a series of casual conversations and it feels disingenuous to cite them as "interview" but there isn't really a more accurate option) and got a link to download the APA guidelines. My dude, I have clearly already looked this up, I was hoping you could provide me with a BETTER answer because the guidelines do not fucking apply to my use case.
In conclusion, I would like to go back to being on vacation where all I had to do was play board games, go whitewater rafting, and occasionally sit down and eat something.

::waves hands:: Be thou on vacation
Did it work?
I have signed back up for the movie pass thing at my local (chain, but it is literally the only movie theater in town, not even in my town which doesn't have one at all but the town next door) theater and committed to a ticket to Everything Everywhere All At Once. I feel good about that decision.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Spent a good portion of the afternoon napping. Right now the cough and congestion are less than before, but we'll see how that goes. In the meanwhile I have my laptop, my tablet and plenty of books here.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
$500 refrigerator parts and labor. Better than $1000-2400 for a new one.
