Files are finally sent. I'm shutting down my work stuff. Hopefully I can just fall asleep.
Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet
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.
fb freaks me out. Via the postings of a former college acquaintance who lives here and with whom I just reconnected, I deduced the reason that the neighbor 3 doors down walked away from his house a couple years ago. Smalltimore!
That ice cream does sound delicious. Though mostly because anything cold sounds delicious to my currently fevered skin. Despite aloe and NSAIDs.
Also sadly, though the pizza was delicious when we finally tracked the guy down (directions of "turn right after the hair salon and left after the horses" apparently weren't clear enough) the DVD player is broken, so no more Justified for us--I think we watched the first three episodes the other night?
Congrats to CJ! That's tremendous.
meara, are you still vacationing?
Guinness ice cream sounds yum! Wish I had some.
I got a text message from a former student today. She told me she was accepted into Teach for America and is going to be teaching at a middle school in San Jose. Then she told me she wanted to go into teaching because of me. It was super sweet. She was in my first AP class and was super awesome. Her students will be lucky. It's the first student I know of who is going into teaching.
Also, I really love that the IRS has a website called "Where's My Refund?" and that they update it frequently. I always imagine it being called, "Where's My Refund, Beyotch!"
Congrats to CJ!
Sunburn and broken DVD players aside, I hope you are having a great trip meara and Brenda!
I wasted today again, apart from a trip to Costco for work snacks (there are $235 worth in the trunk of my car). I really need to stop doing that.
Guinness ice cream sounds yum!
It is!
Congratulations to CJ! A major achievement. Which he's racking up this year.
Aw. I love stuff like that.
Turns out my office-neighbor's son is just finishing up his freshman year at Guilco (how'd I miss that?) Anyway, I then told him about Taylor getting accepted, and he totally volunteered his son to talk to her if she wants. Of course there was also a pleading "Does she have a car? Cause then they could come back home together rather than trekking to pick him up all the time." (She does not. But I told him if she goes, he can totally pick her up too!)
Random question,
Are the twins too young for Pippi Longstocking? Because I'm on book 21 of Magic Tree House and I'm getting a little tired of Annie and Jack.
