I think so? That is the term used for the hangout portion of the conference, is that what you mean?
Natter 69: Practically names itself.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Jezebel is bitching about it being a boozy male-dominated part of the job interview.
You're not trying to imply they're being overwrought, are you?
(Let's not mention that I think the correlation of late nights and alcohol with male-dominated is a bit wack, but there you go--it seems to be an institution you could bash as Old Guys' Club, but because it runs late and there's alcohol? Kinda weak)
Timelies all!
Another crappy night of sleep. Woke up during the night feeling overheated a few times. Even kicking off all the covers didn't help. Maybe its the nightgown.(I think I was wearing it the last time I had this problem)
Today's discovery: the babycats really don't like the sound of the KitchenAid mixer. Sorry, babycats, but I need to make rose and violet marshmallows.
so, in Beau's class a student had to go home unexpectedly last week. He knew the student had an issue with family, but he also thought it might be end of the term stress.
Come to find out, Beau's student's father was deported! Damn. The student's mother is not taking this well. He insisted that the student take an incomplete even though the student didn't want to.
Damn damn damn.
I... Really don't like Jezebel. I'm sure it's partly founded in truth, partly hysterical.
I know! And I'm pretty sure that Siouxsie either has made a pact with the Devil, or has a magical portrait hidden in an attic somewhere.
As I've mentioned, I saw her live in 1991. Outdoors, daylight, and she looked her age and then some. So, really, I think it's more pact with a good plastic surgeon.
I'm sure it's partly founded in truth, partly hysterical.
It took most of the fibres in my being to substitute "overwrought" for "hysterical" in my post. Which might mean I've been spending too much time on Jezebel...who knows?
I enjoy reading Jezebel, but I do think they're 75% hypocritical and full of crap. I'm stunned by how seriously some of the posters take them, given you don't have to peel back much of the covers to get to page-view whoring. I do worry, now that stars seem to be cross-network, that I'll say something on Jezebel and get destarred on IO9.
He insisted that the student take an incomplete even though the student didn't want to.
OMG, not a time to get principled. Take the incomplete and pay attention to your family!
Take the incomplete and pay attention to your family!
Seriously. Poor student! Poor student's dad! Yikes.
Having read it now, I think the complaint is generalizable to every work function ever. On the other hand, philosophers aren't the most socially adjusted people; jobs aren't reserved for people who are fun at parties. If so, I'd be living in Cambridge.
