Lou Dobbs is quitting--tonight's his last show on CNN.
Buh-bye. But yeah, I bet he'll show up on Fox. Ptui.
She's not just a blob of energy, she's also a 14-year-old hormone bomb.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Chikat, is your Forester really noisy? Mine is, which makes talking on bluetooth very difficult, and now that my prime talk-to-boyfriend-who-lives-in-Boston-time is on my way home from work, I need to have a lot less cabin noise. I've been thinking about getting a newer Forester, and wanted to know if the noise problem is any better. Mine is a 2001. I searched online and found some possible solutions for the gusseting, and will try those.

Is it chocolate-gelt flavor, or money flavor? That would be a key factor.
I was just reading Dinosaur Comics and this is exactly the kind of thing Utahraptor would say.
Ergo, Jesse is Utahraptor.

I have graded 20 long papers (6-10 pages each) 50 short responses (2 pages each) and I still have another 20 long papers to go. UGH. No. Good.
Oh my, I'm exhausted just reading the list.

I thought we had already established that Jesse is T-Rex. Or T-Rex is Jesse.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
This is why I've basically given up on online dating in favor of these things where people just show up in front of you -- speed dating and the like. It's just meeting a new person.
I wound up doing better out of online dating than speed dating, though I did enjoy the speed dating quite a lot. They're really quite different environments.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They're really quite different environments.
I think I'm better at presenting myself in person than in text. And I'm better (if only nominally) at liking someone from a brief personal presentation than a brief textual one. I can read a profile and decide I have something to talk to them about, but I haven't read a profile and felt attraction yet. But I can do that in five minutes of exchange of conversation. Just ferreting through profiles to do that...yeah, nsm with the continued trying.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Break time. I think I impressed the philosophy major by knowing what predicate logic is.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think I knew that once.
