Of course they don't need them. Was there anyone out there that thought their 8 year old playing AYSO soccer NEEDED a Gatorade or he might die from dehydration? Gatorade for me was like a treat - same as the granola bars brought by parents after the game.

Shirts like these are a godsend for me if I have to do button down + pencil skirt.

I am now going back for seconds. I hope that makes you hungrier!

Seriously, you are me two years ago.

Mmmm, dinner. Multigrain spaghetti with pesto (not homemade, 'cause I'm lazy), Mediterranean spice blend, red peppers, grated mozzarella and parmesan and a smidge of butter. YUMMY and took 15 minutes to make.

I think you can say, "I love you, and it doesn't sound like this is about me" and then just don't respond if she keeps going. I can see both sides here since I wouldn't be surprised if I gave my sister the same advice in that situation because of my own likely craziness if the biological clock starts a-ticking.

Sometimes putting the crate in your room helps so that the pup can see you. In the exact opposite direction, putting a blanket over the crate can make it feel more den like. Has the dog been crate trained before?

Thanks so much! I feel safer now, haha.

Yeah I actually think my undergrad was fairly flexible in that regard - while the information was a part of the disciplinary record, disciplinary records were destroyed upon graduation in good standing. So while it was a punishment during college, the hope was that if you had matured enough as an individual that the…

Oops, there was supposed to be a picture. The window looks like this

Pictures pictures pictures!!!!!

I did it! But thanks to your contractor husband for offering :-)

I just tried it and I did it!!!!! You're right, I was poorly equipped to try and do it myself and its not ideal but it is secure. At least, as secure as itw as last summer when someone helped me install it.

Just posted in GT but I'll put it here:

I had a friend who was in college and studying abroad in Asia. He fell off a hotel balcony while drinking with friends and died.

Very cool protest concept, not knowing much about the politics involved.

Not a prof (ha, I wish) but I served on my undergrad's highest student misconduct committee through all four years of college and then stayed on an extra year as an admin, to do the aforementioned research project and policy revamp. And I agree with your assessment - at my school, expulsion was only ever once on the…

I apologize, then, for my error. I hope if you didn't plagiarize that you appealed the sentence, and I am sorry about your rape experience, especially as it sounds like your previous school was not supportive.

Happened to me at work once. I'm not sure what causes it - I thought maybe I was having a miscarriage (you know how they say almost all women have miscarriages but they mistake them for heavy periods?) All I know is I spent an hour of my two hours at work mopping up myself and the bathroom.

If you didn't plagiarize, did you appeal your sentence? I say that as someone who served on judicial boards at a high ranked institution, that there is always an appeals process if you were unfairly convicted, but I'm not joking when I say expulsion at top schools due to plagiarism is very, very rare - on the order of…
