Bit of Ivory

A lot of my flist has been posting these, and since I’ve been having similar feelings myself, it seemed like a good idea to follow suit.

And since I have to work today (having skipped work on Tuesday because of my paper, not to mention the short hours last week, and we’ve got a deadline that we’re already [...]

Today’s Foxtrot? Hilarious:

Am sorely tempted to put this on my Christmas cards, even though I am SO not a math person. (That is, if I manage to get Christmas cards out at all. . .)
In other news, have been insanely busy. I finally made my survey inactive after recieving 3,366 responses. o.O. Needless to say, [...]
