nice surprises, weird-ass dream
Advisor: This chapter seems very nicely thought out, the way you've outlined it to me.
aesc: It does?
.the dream: In the waking world, I have this very adorable quilt I got at a quilting fair this summer. Some of the patches in it have cows and horses on them. Adorable, as I said. Anyway, last night I dreamed that the woman who made the quilt made her quilts out of fabric stolen from the graves of dead children, and the ghosts of said children were haunting the unfortunate buyers of her wares.
Sadly, Sam and Dean did not show up to rescue me... I woke up before that :(
*SIGH*
In other news: BOOOOOOOONES OMG I LOVE IT! I seriously wish I could put the assload of work I have on hold so I can catch up, but life, like dreams, is cruelly unfair.
Now, I'm going to go do work and be severely overcaffeinated.
.eta: Oh hai person who does not understand the premise of copyediting! Fixing your stupid spelling and attribution errors is not optional and I am not doing it for you *stabbity*

And that is a totally awesome C&H strip; I think I actually still have a photocopy of that from when I taught freshman comp... I used it to illustrate the importance of clarity and avoiding specialist jargon :D

2) BOOOOONES I LOOOOOVE IT (now you should watch Psych, it's awesome)
3) I had a dream the other day that me and my supervisor were trying to crack a drugs cartel, and then he was given an overdose, and I rescued him from the drugs cartel and was sort of half-carrying him along the street (which was hard, because he's very tall and I am teeny), pleading people to help me call an ambulance for him because he was dying! And nobody would help! It was very dramatic, and when I woke up I felt like a hero.

2) I need to figure out another way to get to all the shows I should be watching... the current method is being endangered by my Bones mainlining :D
3) You and your advisor kick ass! That should totally be the next procedural drama... medievalists who fight crime on the side! There's the dating expert and codicologist, the literary critic and historian who tag team (and bicker... they are the UST pairing, totally) on profiling and crime scene interpretation, the whiz kid linguist who is fluent in fifteen languages, and of course the local/state/federal law enforcement representative who has to keep them in line.
He's played by Joe Flanigan.
I SMELL A PILOT!

2) Yaaaaaaaay Bones-ness! I got S1 for my birthday and it is so cute to see them at the beginning; the dynamics of the first two seasons are some of my favorite, especially after Bones and Booth become BFF.
3) Aw, cat macro for the win! And it prompts me to use this icon as opposed to a Bones one, for great hilarity and appropriateness.

2) BONES YAY! I keep asking myself why I didn't start watching it earlier. So far I have no satisfactory answer :D
3) I would love to include that macro in emails to students/people whose work I copyedit who don't make the corrections I very very strongly suggest that they make. Perhaps a cat would get through where a human would fail :D
