what i am saying here is that if you ever find yourself in need of some fresh-faced screamo hardcore xxxtreme straight edge listening, i can totally hook you up.

uh... thanks?

susan, you inspire me. i think i will delete my ok cupid profile this weekend (i have been meaning to do this anyway).

I would delete my profile but then everyone would forget me. Oh wait.

Ned is one of the most unforgettable people I've never met!

John... oh my.

ned who?

starring Christina Applegate

^^^ would watch

argh, my friend just took me out for thai and I am uncomfortably stuffed.

Now my afternoon will move even slower than the morning as I just really want to lie down.

Okay I'm very dissapointed that in "Swagger Like Us" Jay-Z is saying his "knots" don't fit skinny jeans rather than "nads". My brother has ruined my day.

I don't even know how to interpret that...

As for the Thai food, YUM. I'm going to eat a piece of leftover sausage pizza. If you're uncomfortably full, maybe try to walk around if you can - helps digestion and will keep you a bit more awake. (After a big meal I always just feel sooooooo sleeeepy, especially if it's lunch for some reason).

omg, Susan, happy birthday!!!!

gracias. :) I'm using that as a reason for being so slow today although that doesn't explain every other day.

I've gotten *some* work done today but damn do I just want to go home.

oh hey, happy birthday

tbh, it's your birthday, so I think you should go as slow as you damn well please.

I've gotten some work done today (turned in my l&d clinical prep work) and now am supposed to be working on my latest Giant Paper, about my patients from last Saturday. I have zero motivation and am being massively distracted by odd aspects of it such as the fact that for some reason our prof has set up part of the template so that a whole section of our paper will be written in purple rather than black. I must be tired because the question of whether she wants to read ten pages in purple really seems pressing to me.

thank you. :)
make it black then redo it in purple before you turn it in.

I have a mtg at three then another at five. the latter is over beers with students but, still, i'd rather be at home on my couch by then.

Hey, meeting with students over beers sounds like it could wind up being okay...

Maybe our prof would be amused if the people who took care of female babies switched to pink and the people who took care of male babies used blue. I just don't know what she was thinking. Tomorrow night we are going out w/ profs after the seniors' "pinning ceremony," so I may ask her then.

i think it's ok to write a paper in purple because i really like purple.

Hey, I like purple, too!

It's just one section of the paper (empirical data) that is purple. Everything else appears (personal knowing, aesthetic knowing, ethical knowing, nursing diagnoses... a zillion other sections) to be in black. Maybe she was making some kind of statement making empirical data purple.

I'd rather consider all of this than actually write anything, btw.

call it a hunch, but i bet she is making the empirical section purple so she knows what section not to bother to read.

Sadly, that's probably the most important (also longest and most deadening to write) section.

Personally, I would skip the "aesthetic knowing" section. (i.e. "how is your nursing care a work of art?" - actual quote from one of our profs from last spring)

Did you answer "Because all of my patients end up looking like Venus de Milo"?

hahaha NO

The idea seems to be to explain how you weren't a jerk when you interacted with your patient.

(admittedly some nurses I've met could really use some extra help in that area)

Susan I just del-teted my Myspace too. Buh.

Oh you people and your proactive personalities...

happy birthday susan! i hope this is a great year for you.

you have inspired me! i am going to go delete okcupid now!

done!

Way to go, tehresa!

Hi estela!

Having said those things, I'm going to bed now. I actually made a bit of progress on my TNC (mostly because A. told me that I had to write a certain amount - apparently I am so unmotivated that I need someone to boss me around at this point). Anyway, I'm happy to have gotten something on paper. Or on the computer screen. Whatever.

i am also going to bed now.

Good night, tza!

And everyone!!!

boss is out. press director out. so quiet.
i don't feel like working!

haha, I sparked a deletion revolution! The only person who cared when I was off MySp was my brother who im'ed me saying "I went to leave a happy birthday on your page, what happened?" haha.

I'm glad you're having a quiet friday, tza. I'm at home and really shouldn't be online at all. But I'm im'ing with my brother. Maybe we should just go back to phones. . .

i would like to be at home working on my finals since it is so dead here today. i'm sure i could just go if i wanted to, but then i'd lose $$$, so no. wah wah.

I like phones, but somehow have grown to prefer computer communication more. Hmmmmm.

tza - I have been using youtube to watch MST3K silliness for procrastination purposes this week. And reading ILX. And basically doing everything I can to not write my paper. So if you don't have something to do... now you do.

gah, money sucks.

i think i will use this opportunity to peruse design sites and choose fabrics/swatches for my theater plans.

^^^You are a better person than I am. CLEARLY

I have been watching clips on YouTube of Lil' Wayne at his last Austin show. I didn't go b/c just didn't feel I could justify $60 a ticket. Glad I didn't as I can practically see the entire show, from various seats, via people's cellphones. And I think the sound quality is as good as it would've been live.

I'm going to eat some birthday cake and read.

Happy birthday!

MPLSTPLHSTNGS, am home from 17th. Drinks!

Yay! Glad you're coming home to MN for the holidays, suzy.

aw i wanna drink w/ suzy!

argh someone who does not understand finance/budgeting is trying to tell me how she wants this budget/expense tracking thing i'm doing set up and she does not realize that it is fiscally irresponsible to ONLY track one aspect of production costs...

Wow, that seems kind of intuitive. Can you explain it to her?

sigh.

Yeah, I take your point.
