*two minutes pass

I saw a butterfly lift into the air and I felt the presence of all the loveliness and I have deep feelings of love for all creatures great and small (sniffs into handkerchief then looks around to see if anyone's watching...sniff sniff) and I am a retired butterfly.

It's Boehner style posting.

Pulled the muscles from my tits down to my belly by coughing extensively.
Now even sneezing - one of my favourite pastimes - hurts. As does everything else.

And my parents' cat has been playing silly buggers all day, not complying with our usual schedule. So as I'm typing this I am hearing Diz swearing in cat-language at the top of his (loud) voice at Mia. To be fair to her she is probably shattered and wants to come in to bed. But the last couple of times I tried to sort that she ran away, and not from Diz just from me.

The thing I really came here for though... I wanted some fast food!
I've hardly eaten a thing in the last week.
Honestly.
Today I've had a Snack-A-Mug (cross between soup & pasta) because I knew it would slip down easily.
So as I really really fancy some chicken I thought, why not?
The rents are gone for two hours, I can order on my card and get delivery.
But it's a minimum of £10. And that's both too much money and too much food.
BOOOOOO!
I'm sure when I used to order for Grandad it was £6. Because his would be 4-5 and something for myself would tip it over into free delivery.
Oh hang on, that was cash on delivery via the take-out menus, not on the internet.

Ah well.
Probably better for me.
Just disappointed.

Fried chicken, or kebab, or fries, or burger.... mmmmmmmmmmm.

Did you know that the GRE is now a computerized, adaptive test? This means that the difficulty of your next question is determined by whether you got the last one right, thus pinpointing your exact skill level more precisely in fewer questions.

Which is cool and all, except when it fucks you over after a later question in the math portion inadvertently makes it clear what theorem you misused in a previous question. Used to be, subtle test-taking skills like using later questions to answer previous questions could be used to your advantage. Now all you can do is sit there and grit your teeth.

There are paper tests still available. But only at certain locations, and usually only in the more rural areas that haven't gotten the money to update yet.

But either way you can't just "walk in" anywhere, the popular time slots at the testing centers (i.e., summer) all fill up 9-12 months in advance, and the least-popular time slots (i.e., now, in the middle of finals at the end of the semester) fill up shortly after that. I registered in January, thinking I could take it anytime before October, and happened to get one of the very last appointments anywhere in the city during my time frame.

I'm not upset about it, I still scored plenty high enough to get into my program. Just mildly irritated.

I never, ever doubted you, CF.

My hearty congratulations to you, and "rub some dirt on it nancy" for your minor irritation.

My back hurts and I'm in danger of it getting all fucked up again, so I need to try and sit properly (not hooking on foot under the other knee etc.....) but everytime I stop thinking about it, the damn leg does as it pleases, sneaking up onto the seat and twisting my back all six ways from hell without me even noticing.....

My esophagus, I was up most of the night. I think there is food hung up in there.
