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.
Backflung, Burrell.
And also? N-a-pppp. Just 20 minutes, Mom.
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.
I have certainly heard it phrased that way.

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.
I think the idea that pornography is adultery is an incredibly sheltered one, and now that I'm an accredited (what?) anthropology paper marker, I'd question the student.
"for all intensive purposes"
I do love this, and like to say it almost as much as "I dismember when". I have been corrected on the dismember thing, and it felt like Christmas.
Work has been...continually productive. And revelatory. And I need to not flirt. And I think a co-worker is disappointed with/pissed at me. I let something drop through the cracks? I don't even remember that that part of it even exists! Seriously! I feel so bad.
I know a smart early 20s woman (I am being all "make her unidentifiable on the internet" but if you know me, you likely know who she is) who does actually feel that pornography is cheating and thus adultery in marriage. I don't agree with her theologically, but I can see how she rationally and calmly came to her decision. And since she's upfront about it with men she dates, fair enough.
I've been watching MST3K episodes, so I'm filtering everything through an obscure and disquieting lens.
As is right and proper.
Awesome maintenance dude just stopped by and my light / ceiling fan contraption needs to be replaced - but it's not dangerous that the light flicks on then off, so until a new one comes in tomorrow or Wed, it's Studio 54 strobetastic here. Until I get bored. So maybe 90 seconds of strobetastic and then I use other lights that actually stay on.
Now I can actually nap. It might mess up my sleep but, gosh, I want a nap. It certainly can't make me less productive that not.
