I surrender.
I've been watching MST3K episodes, so I'm filtering everything through an obscure and disquieting lens.
Wash: Don't fall asleep now. Sleepiness is weakness of character. Ask anyone. You're acting captain. Know what happens you fall asleep now? Zoe: Jayne slits my throat, and takes over. Wash: That's right. Zoe: And we can't stop it.

I so need a nap. I need three naps. I need All of the Naps.
Moooooommm!! Cass is bogarting all the naps!!!!!
I need one, too. Really, really badly. Because I am still at work, even though I wanted to leave 45 minutes ago. Instead, I am staying so I could deal with an email from a group manager who was complaining that he didn't get an update email three weeks ago, and he cc'd both my boss's boss and my boss's boss's boss, but not my boss, and after looking it up, I find out that he should have gotten the email and more than likely did, unless there was a problem with the email system, because the damn thing was generated in Lotus Notes. So, I forwarded him the registry of the actual html-filled newsletter that was emailed to him. I hope this satisfies his stress over missing future newsletters and puts the blame on the software or email server and not on me if he didn't get the darn thing.
And I still have to go home and work on my final for school. Ugh.
ETA: And now I'm stress-eating a piece of office cake, which is a total sugar bomb. Double-ugh.
ETA2: And when going over my PTO for the week with my boss, I teared up when saying that I've had one hell of a day. I really hate tearing up on my boss over simple stress.

I'm grading a student paper. Question: do most people consider pornography use a form of infidelity? I don't see it that way, but if it's a commonly held belief, I don't want to quash her.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I have certainly heard it phrased that way.

do most people consider pornography use a form of infidelity?
I don't know about most, but in my neck of the religiously conservative woods, it's a bare couple of steps away from adultery. Oh, and it's something men do, and it wrecks families, and they have earnest conferences about keep the scourge out of your home.

I've heard it called that as well, but I think most is overstating the case by a fair bit.
