I will trade you Huck Finn for Handmaid's Tale papers!
Actually, if you'd like to spend sometime having coffee and grading on Thursday, I'd love to see you, Kristin.
Buffy! If I wanted to fight, you could tell by the being dead already.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Glad you got home okay, Sue. Sorry it was such a hassle.
Was the grinding guard discussion today here or Bitches? I'm having no luck searching this thread. A friend is looking for a brand recommendation on an OTC brand.

I wish you all more motivation than I am exhibiting.
I worked from 9:30 until 7, ran an errand, came home and put away dishes and reloaded the dishwasher, and now I'm awaiting groceries and trying to decide what to have for dinner.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
When you figure it out, let me know. Maybe I can copy you.

The status is NOT quo.
Actually, if you'd like to spend sometime having coffee and grading on Thursday, I'd love to see you, Kristin.
That would be excellent! I really need to focus, and this could be key. You're welcome to come over or we could head somewhere like Panera. What's your pleasure?

I basically watched Top Gear UK and The Unit in Alabama. And countless Diego and other Nick stuff, but I refuse to count that. Watching Top Gear with a car geek is awesome fun.
I am home and mostly unpacked. Goddamned baggage handlers broke 3 really well packed things: plastic mixing bowl, glass in a frame and the ornament Tyler painted for me. The latter really pisses me off, but it is at least easily fixable.
Lunatic that I am, I got home, shot Mister Kitty and went out and swam. 1.5 miles. It's always interesting after a period of time off. Then unpacked and ate dinner.
Loki is nuts, Devi is needy, Mister Kitty is asleep.
Eventually, I'll take the empty luggage downstairs, go through my mail and really find homes for things. Eventually is not now.

Pix, the upside to Panera is unlimited iced tea, which is a bonus... the downside is the distractibility factor. I'm highly prone to distraction. So I'll leave the choice up to you.

sara, glad you're home safe and sound.
It's 7:30 and both kids are in bed (asleep is questionable). Grace didn't have a nap today and Noah certainly didn't have a long enough one.
I have taken codeine in an attempt to get my neck to unspasm.
But I'm headed to bed.

Sleep well! I'm not betting on whether my nephews are asleep. Their schedule got all ferwonked Xmas day when they and PJ took a 6 hour nap. D's isn't so bad, but T? Oy. Child would be wide awake from 6 until 1 am and utterly immoveable before 9. And that's changing tomorrow.
Loki is lying on the suitcase like it's his royal throne. And I'm discovering his shredded paper stores....

Okay, I just got an email from a student. We submitted midterm report cards a week before winter break. The kid had been in class 3 days of the 20 classes we had during that marking period. Final grades won't be submitted until February.
He asked me if he had any chance of passing. He's missed half the semester, the half where we do much of the work, as a matter of fact. If I say no he doesn't, he won't attend school. If I say he does, then I am either lying or willing to give him make up work.
What should I do?
