My fall progress reports for my students are due *tomorrow*, and I haven't started them yet.
My students haven't been able to go outside for recess for two days because the air quality index is too high. They can't wrap their brains around it "because it's sunny and it's not raining out".
Aaaand I had a little girl get dropped off sick as a dog yesterday, throwing up *everywhere*. Her mom tried to say "Oh, she was just complaining about her breakfast."
"Did it have black sesame paste in it?"
"Yes! How... oh."
I'm glad I know what black sesame paste is, or I seriously would have suspected the girl of having PICA.But on the bright side, I was finally able to run our family Legacy of Fire game for the first time on Monday after a two-month hiatus. And we might even play again (gasp!) this weekend!
What's wrong with black sesame paste?
(Serious question here, all I could find was that it was blackened mushed sesame seeds)Edit: this IS in fact the sort of question one should ask while naked.

How f!#%ing long has Sonic been paying its employees on based on tipped wages?
What's amusing is that I use Sonic, the ISP, and have never eaten at Sonic, the restaurant.
So I had a serious WTF moment there...

Its currently my opinion that there are three basic dog personalities.
Aggressive
Shy
and Never-met-a-stranger.
There are as many personalities of dogs as there in people.
Point of fact: Dogs and people share the same meaning for somewhere around 95% of their facial expressions.

Ours howls along with the ambulances that drive by, and gets super excited if you ask him "What happened boy! Did Timmy fall down the old well!"We’ve got a puggle, and she makes a valiant effort at howling with sirens.
Now Impus Major HAS to visit you. He is obsessed with pugs. Pug calendar on his wall, went as a pug inspector for Halloween last year, pug wool had, pug undies...

We'd enjoy the visit!
However, Coraline is more beagle than pug. She's got the big pug eyes and a pug-like nose, and her tail curls a bit, but that's all she's got going for her pug-wise. So, IM might be disappointed.

Impus Minor was complaining that he's had to play Twister at P.E. for 3 days straight. And he's VERY sore...

Oh, and "real" fire news: NobodysWife's aunt and uncle were allowed to return to their undamaged home yesterday, so apparently in spite of the headlines firefighters are making progress...

It was a joke based on the fact that when people introduce their dogs they always use one of those three words to describe them.

I just say "don't worry, he's super friendly"
Honestly though, he doesn't notice actual people unless they enter his sniffing radius, or they scratch his back, he loves a good back scratching.

Sissyl!
If I remember correctly, I think some of your family had problems with schizophrenia (at least at one time), and, though taking anything like advice from a weirdo on the internet is a bad idea, I literally just saw this today and wondered what, if anything, it might be able to do to help?
Sorry if I'm a moron!
meh. It's invega. Invega is the new hotness, sorta kinda. Crazymeds.us might have more info. I havent run a medication group since even before my promotion, so my info is out of date.

The Spheres of Might .pdf has been released!! Yours truly's eponymous character has been published!!! The art is good, but it ain't quite Syrus. The mechanics are just about right where I'd want 'em, though.
Fun stuff!

Undies made of pug?
"Yes, this is Skwootchi, that's right. We loved him; he went to a better place, but at least we have something to remember him by, with a little flap at the back for Emergency Situations"

Ah, Global Megacorpation, will you never cease to amaze and frustrate me?
I did a handoff to my manager yesterday. She kept complaining that my files weren't up-to-date. I kept insisting they were. We started comparing files.
And apparently our official fileserver has a major hiccup in it right now: If you upload an updated version of a file, it updates the timestamp, but not the file itself.
So I'm sitting here telling my manager, "No; they should be fine, the timestamps are all OK!"
"But I told you to fix this!"
"I DID!"
"%^&%*#&!"

Sorry, nope. I was an '80s punker from roughly 1984-1992. That would be... 30 years ago.That's perfect, because (since I've never seen pictures) I was going to suggest "N.H. 30 years ago in his serious punk phase".20 years ago.
Also, huh, Joakim is my age. I am not sure if I should feel old or young...
I'm late 80s and early 90s onward.
Absolutely love California punk.
30 years ago I was 8.

It's 60 degrees, so no hat.
It's drizzling though, which evidently is cause to wear jackets... Oh come on, umbrellas now!
Damn parents today, can't handle inclement weather, why back in my day...
I'm wearing shorts and my Pac Man back in the day T-shirt, I'm not cold in the slightest and the drizzle isn't even enough to make my clothes wet.

Another cool drizzly day! Woo! I got to wear my new sweatshirt today. It says yay on the front in sparkly letters, and thanks to the good weather it isn't a totally sarcastic yay today. Just mostly sarcastic. Parent teacher conferences this evening mean there is definitely a good deal of sarcasm to that yay. Indubitably more as the evening goes on.

As an ingredient, nothing; it's delicious in mochi dumplings or in ice cream.
As the primary component in kindergartner hurlage, it's... not pretty.

They will once I buy next month's airtime. It's just that my hotspot burns through the 4G first. Wish I knew how to save the 4G for the things that matter, like downloading.All the 4G speed on my Hotspot is gone. Posting is a pain, right now. And downloading something I just bought is impossible. I'll try to download from the library, tomorrow. I guess I'm done for the night. Good night, everyone.:/
Hope things go better!
I'll ask Hi, since at the moment he's living out of his car and using prepaid mobile for his internet connection. He's extremely tech-savvy, and may know a trick or two.
(And don't worry, lisamarlene, it's by choice, not by necessity. Hi's an odd duck. He can get a hotel room whenever he needs one, and our studio is always open to him. He just chooses not to own a home, nor rent from a landlord.)

May I ask who is Shiro? I've seen this name come up a lot all over the place, often related to poor food choices xD

Hmm... there's the whole "privacy" thing, where I don't post information about my friends unless they've given me explicit permission to do so.
So I believe that I can say that:
(a) Shiro underwent planned surgery today
(b) His life is not in any immediate danger
I happen to know that he's OK because his son has already made sure he's settled in for his stay at the hospital and said son is coming up to do Bowl'd with us tonight.
And yes, Hi is weird. It's why he and I get along so well.
