There wasn't much else out there. Bummer.
Might I suggest this? Fascinating suggestion! Just in time for Christmas giving, too. If you're thinking of me, I got it as a holiday gift last year. But, thanks for the thought. On edit: Hey! I just noticed they've got videos of some of the stuff! Awesome! |

Your professors were probably afraid of your galactic genius and did everything they could (behind the scenes) to thwart your hedginess. Hedgie loves to read. |

I'm tired of doing revisions!
I want to be on the PWP thread!
Where's the "I'm a nerd working on a Friday night" thread?
Ugh, back to work.

I'm such a nerd I'm teaching all day on Saturday. I don't think there's a thread for that, so here I am!
HoOt!

I'm with you OctoProf. At a conference and when I'm not in a session, I'm trying to get the reading for a lit review done. Treated myself to a KitKat but better to treat myself to a CHE cruise. |

Now that is a treat! TM is nakey! :o) I don't mind doing this Saturday class which is mostly just running the equipment and such. I do not have to lecture, though I do work problems with the students periodically. However, today, one of the usually very attentive students is a disinterested nuisance. I'd like to strangle her. |

'Tis early, and yet here I hoot. Porch light is on, but it's already full dark and not a single trick-or-treater yet. My feelings aren't too hurt as it's also raining and cold (for this area); I suspect most kids went to parties or just hung out in nearby neighborhoods.
I don't mind. I will if I don't stop snacking on the candy, however.

Hey there Conjugate. I'm back, too, early though it is. Presentation went well but the hotel room is boring. However, the downside of spending too much time on the fora is overexposing my views. I got fussed at on another thread (dating a younger man) after inadvertently offending another poster. Sheesh. Night owls are at least civil. Hoot.

I thought you'd referred to a Mrs. Thundering Marshmallow at some point. If so, no wonder you got fussed at for dating a younger man. Really, too much information here, TM. And speaking of "overexposing," I should point out that you have no icon and therefore are posting naked. Should I presume that the TM of your moniker is part of TMI? |

You know what would be an interesting thread, Conjugate? verbs that have become nouned and nouns that have become verbed. |

Yes, that would! Do you want to start it, or should I? Where will we put it? I can't see anything more appropriate than Meet and Greet (though We Speak Volumes comes close). |
