magidI got email from the alumni association, telling me how much dues are for the year: "$30 dues ($50 dual-member married/unioned household)".
And for the life of me my first thought was why would they care if one person was a union member?
Hairless fishnuts! Hairless fishnuts! Hairless fishnuts!
This has been a test of the emergency LJ system. In case of a real emergency, there would be no hairless fishnuts.
In two weekends, I'm going to Philly for a friend's party, celebrating his wedding in Israel (yesterday), and staying with some college friends while I'm there. This is good. However, the weekend has a higher opportunity cost than I'd thought. I'll miss a going-away party, a birthday gathering, and likely an equinox celebration, too. Phooey. Why didn't anyone read the rules? No one is allowed to have gatherings that I want to go to before checking with me!
I'm going to Africa, and I'm bringing an aquarium.
I'm going to Africa, and I'm bringing a belted beluga and an aquarium.
I'm going to Africa, and I'm bringing a chantry, a belted beluga, and an aquarium.
...
I'm going to get some work done.

Date: 2003-09-08 01:01 pm (UTC)So how sad is it that my first thought upon reading this was "Just cough up some dough, Mac!"
(OK, so that was "hairy fishnuts," but still)

Maybe we could do dinner and you could tell me about all I missed?
