Happy birthday to [livejournal.com profile] xaeon!

Hello to new readers [livejournal.com profile] rockstarjesus and [livejournal.com profile] ximianmonkey!

All you need is just a little patience...
I've noticed a rash of New Kids friending me then unfriending me a few days/week later because I didn't friend them back. Y'all, I say this every so often... it's going to take me a while to go through all of y'all's journals. And if you don't eventually get the addback, please do not take it personally; my friends page is kinda out of control as it is, so much so that I'm considering making reading filters, which I'd never wanted to do - but may have to, reading one filter at work and the rest at home. So it's not "you suck", it's "can't...do...any...more..."

Also I'm not going to add people who only do quizzes. Some of you do 'em every so often, and that's cool. But if your journal doesn't have actual CONTENT, I'm not missing anything by not reading you, y'know? Not being snotty. Just sayin'.

Today's Mission
Got to correct the spring schedule to reflect the last-minute changes. And write up all of the upcoming seminars. And file recommendation letters. And copy evaluations. And... yah. Busy bee.

Moose
I now have the moose my parents bought me in the office. He's straddling the stapler. His name is Zeus the Moose. All hail Zeus the Moose!

Sleep-Dep
Day three. Gyah. I MUST get to bed early tonight. My brain is all floopy.

And now I must catch up with my friendspage from 5:00 PM onward. Which will likely be skip-400. Gyah.

Awesome stuff on [livejournal.com profile] metaquotes regarding the silliness of hatred & obsession. Rock on.

Thanks for linking to that, [livejournal.com profile] lots42!

It's Friending Frenzy #3! This is how it works:

Looking for more LJ friends? People who want to be added, leave a comment on this post telling why people should read you. People who are looking for cool new people to read: go shopping in the comments!

This was [livejournal.com profile] foxmagic's idea originally - credit where credit's due. But I view it as almost a public service to host it, since I think I have the most kickass friends list on LJ, and all of you kickass people could benefit from getting to know each other. Share the love!


Go for it!

"['song], those schedules are posted a little low on the board - can you put them up higher?"

"Can you get me a ladder?"

How do people forget that I'm 4'11"?

But [livejournal.com profile] ashlupa seduced me away from my desk, naughty vixen that she is.

There was much giggling. A new word was coined - jackassery. I wasn't sure if it was a word, but we have agreed that it is now, and that we are acquainted with the biggest jackass in Atlanta. La!

And I had a meal that included soy and did not suffer anaphylaxis. La!

And one of the more interesting exchanges:

Me: "The Clie is my new favorite toy! Well, Besides the iVibe."
Ash: "Well, if we could merge them somehow... you know, all we need is a vibrator with a firewire port. I bet we could manage that..."
Me: "I am not being your product tester."

Right, then. Back to work. And I'm glad y'all are having fun with the Friending Frenzy.

*looks at e-mail*
*blink* *blink*
*cocks head to one side*
*blink* *blink*

That is without a doubt the oddest and most off-base misspelling of my last name EVER.

I mean, the professor is Czech and my last name is Russian. So there's some culture clash there, I guess. But I think he stuck some Polish in there too, just for good measure.

*blink* *blink* WTF?

At least he spelled my first name right.

The Day My Butt Went Psycho has a gloassary. (EDIT: A typo pointed out by [livejournal.com profile] mfree. Which I'm not correcting.)

In that glossary is the word "butt-plug".

Oh dear elvis on a popsicle stick. My child is not reading a book with butt-plugs in it til at least high school, okay? Just... no.

Comment Of The Day, from [livejournal.com profile] rune1275:

2004's Christmas Craze! Tiny cloned zombie Elvises that sit on your monitor strumming miniature guitars. (available, of course, as both Fat Elvis and Young Elvis) Left to their own devices, they'll just periodically pipe up with vaguely lewd nonsequiturs, fragments of song, or a half-hearted "BRAINS!", but hook up the supplied mini-USB cable, install the winAmp plugin, and Elvis sings along to all your favorite MP3's!

Hee!

In other news, I was too busy at work to read my friends page. And then I fell asleep. Damn sleep-dep. So I have not read my friendspage in a long time. I'll go do that now.

In other other news, I have a cat on my lap. The good cat.

I'm currently AIMing with Dom Boy and Sub Boy simultaneously. That feels weird.

EDIT: And now Switch Boy. I need a scorecard.

I have given up on BellSouth allowing me to AIM tonight. Connection keeps getting dropped.

I thing this is The Internet's way of telling me to go to bed.
