I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

[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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I support the smoothies.

Meh. My week is already so boring, and it haven't even really begun.

I need something new to get excited from. If this boredom continues and uni won't drown me with papers, I might even start a CSTS event. Fandom never fails to surprise me, so what the hell. Other people have life, relationships, kids. Me? I have books and fandom. Those are exciting enough.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Nah. Do you have a blender? Just ice cream and milk. A week of milkshakes won't give you scurvy. Although if you're lactose intolerant it might suck.

Yeah, I just got things blended. You can blend a lot of fruit and veg - I love carrot and apple juice, for example. But mostly I just ate soup.

Other people have life, relationships, kids. Me? I have books and fandom. Those are exciting enough.

Indeed. I think a person only needs two all-encompassing things in their lives at once. Fortunately, my g/f understood why she was getting shafted into a long-distance relationship when I started an MA course in a subject that utterly enthralls me.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Now I want milkshake.

Seska, I think that's the problem: I'm not that enthralled, for some days now, with what I'm studying. I can't even call it boredom, but... I'm keep waiting for some new, exciting approach that I'll totally love in an eye blink. Right now, the best my studies can offer me gets me to say "heh. Cool", or "LOL", best case scenario. I miss the "wow!" it can be.

Edit: and now, I'm gonna fake enthusiasm with an anthropology paper. Let's see if it'll notice.

Now tagless for your comfort.

OTOH, I know people who had all 4 wisdom teeth out and resumed solid food immediately. Like, stopped for a burger on the way home from the oral surgeon's office. So you might not need mooshy food for as long as you think.

Christopher did this--but the dentist suggested doing it before the pain meds wore off. He moved onto mushy foods after that, at least for a day. I'd get a can of creamy soup and some drinkable yogurt if you don't want to mess with a blender. After a day or two, you might move onto soft but more chewable stuff.

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

Just got an email from the department chair, saying that, if students want to take a final exam early because their parents want them to come home to escape the swine flu, our answer should be no.

“Not dead yet!”

Am at the emergency vet. We think Mooshu may have had a stroke this morning. Any ~ma anyone has would not go unappreciated.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Oh Barb, mooshu-ma and fingers crossed.
