I'll ask my husband about the Thai words when he gets back from lunch.
You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

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

Fay! Any suggestions for materials for learning Arabic, or did you pick it up on the street?

Man, I've got to a point where I no longer register this stuff as comical, even - it's just become the default.
BUT, let me transcribe for you the beginning of Death Note. Because I have concluded that it's been translated by dyslexic Japanese cats. I would worry about spoiling people for the movie, but - really, I'm watching it, and I'm still not spoiled for the movie.
Policeman: Stop. Stop.
Thug: Little vexed. Stop a day to compare to me.
Policeman: Don't run.
Innocent Female Bystander grabbed by Thug: Want help!
Thug: Stop the day compares.
Policeman: Release him.
Thug: Bewared of me to kill this woman.
Policeman: You cannot escape.
Thug: The day compares
Thug dies. Next scene:
Besuited guy: Make what feeling as for the new phrase of yesterday you
Paparazzi: Carry on the back many sirs asks you to answer us face to face
Besuited guy: Ask answers carry many sirs on answer's back
Paparazzi: You took local business organ of money of the underworld organisation.
Besuited guy: I don't remember to have this kind of matter
Somebody: It is said still beat NPO (folks Not-for-profit organisation) of the signal
Besuited guy: I know. Make me past.
Paparazzi: The children's organ and life but is deprived in the meantime
Somebody: Carry on the back ask many sirs front side back
(besuited guy collapses just like thug in previous scene)
sighs
...I'm going to have to order the damn things from ebay, aren't I? In the US/UK editions?

Innocent Female Bystander grabbed by Thug: Want help!
And can you blame her?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Fay, have you seen Star Wars Episode III: The Backstroke of the West?

There's something almost Shakespearian and quite sad about this exchange. Especially "Make me past."

Now tagless for your comfort.
Charlie is ADORABLE. He's taken over as my new favorite kiddie-youtube, just beating out the "it's not toot, it's poopie" girl.
Yay for employment, JZ!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
have you seen Star Wars Episode III: The Backstroke of the West?
This is what who fuck.
(err, I think that's a recommendation.)

Stop the day compares.

I think he was trying to write a haiku, but was shot for excessive dadaism.
Speaking of customer service, I just called OfficeMax to ask if the paper shredder on the ad that was in my hand was still available. The person denied the existence of the ad. The ad is current. The shredder is also on sale on the website, but I don't need $50 worth of stuff to get free shipping.
My shredder has shredded itself. A bunch of teeth are all mangled, so I have to clear a paper jam about every five sheets.

JZ, yay!
I am not having a good morning. I slept through two alarms and didn't wake up until 7:10...that's about 90 minutes late...and after a quick shower and a frantic call to the upper school admin assistant, flew out the driveway and into nasty rush hour traffic. What is normally a 45-50 minute drive took 90. I missed a department meeting and the first half of my first class, and the person covering my class just let them sit there and talk. Argh. Not that I can blame her, really, since she didn't get the sub plan I'd emailed, but still. Then I taught the second class, and now I'm sitting here without food or caffeine, staring at the huge pile of grading and feeling sorry for myself. My pity party, let me show you it.
