Sure, but that's the sort of thing that inspires kids to be engaged in their foreign language courses.
Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

My current Italian workbook has a whole activity about shopping for a cocktail party. No beer, but scotch, grappa, and tonic water. My boss barely lets me put pictures of wine in our French books.
It's ridiculously inappropriate, and I have no idea why my all-powerful, do-no-wrong co-editor didn't change it, but I decided to leave it because I just don't care.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Right now is the first time since Monday that I don't feel completely overwhelmed by work. (I'm ignoring the fact that the only way to feel that way was to push another hour or so of work off until tomorrow)
I think I am going to celebrate by eating lunch somewhere other than my desk.
Wheee

Happy Birthday Scrappy!
Was someone fired?
No, so far as I know it was a standard ad the company sends out for printing, albeit to an older audience than the target of that particular publication. I never heard back about any reprisals, but they did send us a modified version of the ad film that was safe for younger kids.
I just didn't want us to get a rep for being the early childhood company that played Spot the Hidden Picture.

Run away, Perkins! Find a pretty place for lunch, even if you do takeout!

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

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Happy birthday, Scrappy!
I'm glad to hear your father's surgery went well, Kat. Also thanks for the Nubar PSA. I was already planning on doing some Sephora shopping online to use up a GC I have. Now I may need to add a stop over at Nubar too. But hey! Polish!
Also? Actual factual day off today--I turned in grades yesterday. Woot!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
So, the plan today was for me to work a few hours, then come over to my parents' place (they picked up mac this morning) to start cleaning up my mother's sewing room (that was my mother's day gift to her). Work took longer than expected so I did not get over here until 2. She tells me she doesn't feel well enough, so I should just "chill". Um, I have a house that needs to be put in order, why the hell would I want to just hang out at their house. I can't even watch tv, because mac and his friend are playing in that room. Afternoon FAIL!
I did get to meet the friend's mom whom I had not met yet, so that was good.
Maybe I will go sweep some in the garage.
