I did see a "Casita Serenada". So maybe it's FATE!
You can't mess with that message. That's like god talking to you, right there.
Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
le n, can you speak to something like her work ethic? When I can't praise a student's writing or overall academic chops, I look for things I can praise, like their improvement over the semester.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
no Burrell.
I cannot WAIT for this student to finish her degree. Seriously. I think I will be 1000 times happier for her to finish than she will be.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
2000 times.

I once wrote a letter of recommendation for lackluster student to get a newspaper internship in which I said, "I can't think of anyone who would benefit more from an internship."

Ugh, that's hard le n. I like Ginger's solution.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Good luck with the letter, Le N.
Hey, it's Friday! What are people doing this weekend? How many people get three days?
I'll be running a few errands, but mostly housebound as I get the new cat settled in. Maybe I can get some more unpacking done.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Three days, whoot!
Today I am being ineffective, apparently.
But tomorrow we're going to a house concert, one of Dave's buddies is playing in the neighborhood before he heads out on tour.
And it's possible I might be spending all three days trying to make demi-glace. Gulp.
The SO's birthday is at the end of next month, and I want to make a fancy dinner for him, but I want to try the demi-glace well in advance so that I can fail beforehand.
But actually it occurs to me that I can't do both, because the house concert falls right in the middle of when I'd be cooking. Hm.
Anyway, the boy and the dog are going camping and I am probably just going to loll around the house.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I cannot shake the tired today, which is weird since I slept.
I went out to do some weeding to see if a little exertion would help, but it didn't. I just want to go back to bed.
Anyway. I thought you all should know that I input the task, "Weed" into Astrid, but I probably should have phrased it differently, because now Astrid periodically pipes up, "It's time for Weed!" cheerily. Which might be awkward if noticed in certain educational environments.
The weed in question is, in fact, horehound, and while it smells nice and is actually ingestable, that's not really the same vibe I'm going for.

Because books.

Oh god, I love this. Heh.
