Hi there. First class of the last day was strangely shitty. Students (as I might have expected) didn't want to talk about A Modest Proposal, or their favorite texts from the term, or how much they love me. They just wanted to get it over with and back to their LIVES. Can't blame 'em, I suppose.
I'm hoping (and guessing) that the other class (which, is, it must be said, usually the 'good' class) will be a lot better.

(though man, what a stiff bunch they are if they can't even be wound up by such a wind-up.)

No, I knew which thread I was posting on. Isn't this for random work-related venting (yes yes and DDBs and pointy-nosed boys).
Sigh.

I have just got back from raiding Borders for my grandmother's Christmas present, a rather oversize book of maps of the world from the Middle Ages. And it's now a month until I fly away to America for the New Year...these happy thoughts are fighting away the ickyness of being covered from head to foot in water from a passing lorry earlier this morning. At least I'm dry now!

Is that why it's traditional at baby showers in China to give bottles and soy sauce or mustard?
(ewww)

Haha, she's still quite spry! And if she takes a swing at you with it, well, I'm thinking a light concussion at the least! I do like a book that can be used as an effective weapon if needs require...

Worms, worms, worms...
Are you telling me I couldn't nick a book from a grannie? Next you'll be telling me I couldn't take candy from a baby. OK, I probably couldn't, but there's no reason to rub it in.

And it's one of those sounds I couldn't tell if it was guitar or piano or what, which I kinda like. Those instrument hybrids you can make in sequencers.

After Pride and Prejudice, you should read Thackeray's Vanity Fair, Ed. It is the dark, evil, hillarious Julie Burchill side of Austen's world.

In the past few months, I've seen a few people. And all those relationships have involved me travelling off long distances to meet people.
I've got a date, of sorts, tonight. And for the first time ever, someone is willing to travel a fair way to meet *me*.

Morning everybodypeeps! Is the person coming to see you the person you went to visit recently, FP? If so, I hope that all continues to work out well for you both :)
I am looking forward to the weekend too - my husband is taking me off to Bath for a dirty weekend to do some Christmas shopping on Friday and Saturday. Two whole days without kids!
