We made it above freezing today for the first time in over a week. It was +3F when I woke up Tuesday morning - I couldn't sleep because my nose was too cold. This is not a small problem, as any photo of me will prove! This getting old thing has its odd moments, yes it does.<br /><br />3. Oh no - no hyperbole at all, sadly enough. All of those numbers come straight from reputable sources, and the fuck you to the guy in the wheelchair was done proudly by those twits.<br /><br />6. I could definitely use a rest. Remember when politics was dull and you could go days without even thinking about it? Good times, man.<br /><br />7. It's up to 40,000 now - the guy who shared it a couple weeks ago is apparently quite the center of attention. Every so often I do a Google image search, and it's now up on a bunch of meme-generator sites too. I like this. It was meant to be shared.<br /><br />8. And so I did (thanks!). But never with a red pen. I put too many comments on student papers and if I use red they just get intimidated. Blue. Black. Something a bit more low key. So much of teaching is just psy-ops.<br /><br />9. "Not all men..."<br /><br />10. I would welcome our new robot overlords except I know that they were programmed by the same people who brought us Windows 8 and PeopleSoft anything. They'll still kill us, but mostly by malfunctioning and taking us with them.<br /><br />Copyright 2019. All rights reserved until you get to know them better - then they loosen up.

Presently.<br /><br />3. Man, I thought the mormons were Blatantly Corrupt™ - I see, however, that someone over there has been reading over their shoulders and copying their work. I presume you are not engaging in hyperbole.<br /><br />4. Sponge Boob’s Square Thingy happens next. Unfortunately.<br /><br />5. Pass. I’ve had more than my fair share of exercise, thankyouverymuch for your suggestion. May suggest some anatomically difficult things for you to attempt in return? <br /><br />I will take the ‘rest’, though. I think I may have actually earned it. Maybe.<br /><br />6. Your anonymity is safe with me. Mostly ‘cause I won’t go near the Facethingynook.<br /><br />7. So, are you referring to the traditional War on Crustymass or the more recently declared War on Thinksgiving?<br /><br />8. Yes. you should be grading. You are very good at it. And it would appear that you’re running short on excuses for putting it off further. Grab a Hostess Cupcake™ and your red pen get back to work!<br /><br />9. “Not all Boomers…” What, precisely <i>was</i> the point? Or the <i>subject</i>, as far as that goes? Something tells me I probably don’t want to know… forget I asked, K?<br /><br />10. This would make a wonderful RightFart conspiracy theory if it weren’t for the obvious & indisputable evidence of its absolute truth.<br /><br />Lucy<br /><br />* It should be noted that I have carefully proofread this comment, and I ran it through Grammarly.
