My students have their final exams today. So I'm administering those, and then grading, and then the other class's exam, and then more grading.
We knocked 'em deader!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
My fingers hovered over my computer wanting to refresh and not wanting to refresh at the same time.
Maria, you are kick ass and your presentation will be nothing less.
My personal experience with hospice is that some of the kindest people work in that industry and they do everything possible to ease any pain and make the final days as comfortable as possible.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen
Go Maria! Woo!
I'm at work, because I still have loose ends to tie up before my surgery on Friday, but I called the surgeon's scheduler to see if they can take me sooner, because I'm in a ton of pain. Like, I don't even know how much is "too much" anymore. So I'm crying at my desk for Ginger, and for myself, because I'm hurting like a mofo. And trying to get shit done, which I'm doing only a fair job of, at best.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Good luck, Maria! We are in your corner.
You too, Sparky. Yikes.
And you, JZ. I hope you have some easy and carefree days before too long.

Go Maria!

Because books.
Kick it in the ass, Maria.
Fingers crossed for good outcomes, Sparky.
I am going to pull up my socks and do things that need done today. I think "pulling up my socks" could become a new way to think about spoons, too.

Because books.
Oh, Amy, gallbladder pain is not fun. I hope they can take you sooner. Soonest, really. ::gentle hugs::

And Hil.
And oh no, amyth! Come on, surgeon, be available. Or whatever is needed. Or chill out gallbladder. Something. Gah.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I am going to pull up my socks and do things that need done today.
I am exhausted (I just dozed off in front of the computer for about 20 minutes instead of working) from sadness and being awake at 3 a.m. with a horrible IBS flare that I had to drug into submission. I think I'm going to write "Pull Up Your Socks" on a post-it and stick it on the TV.
