LOL. You know I'm just teasing you, right? But srsly, it's like crack.

btw, that pic of Noel all sweaty and prostrate on stage that I found is now my home computer desktop theme. Probably another reason I couldn't get to sleep last night.

Pfft. Frappacinos are just... study aids. IDK, go with me on this one. (Speaking of Frappacinos, I think I might just get me one in a bit.)

It sounds like you have good progress on your phD at least -- just don't let it get the work (or the man) getcha down. Maybe you should go to the Howl Fest. :) Sounds like fun and it'd probably be a good break, mental and physical.

(Also, WORD on the 'being able to sleep anywhere' bit. I'm usually like that.)

Ok, first of all? ICON LOVE!

I am constantly beating myself up for how little work I've gotten done. So it's nice to hear doing anything at all was good. But that's my inner Hermione speaking.

Frappucinnos are TOTALLY STUDY AIDS. If only I got some studying done afterward!

No question, I will be going to the Howl Festival. I am having this weird craving to buy a top hat and put on my Rose wig and some weird scary eye makeup. Do you ever get a craving to dress up for no reason at all? LOL

... ... ... OH HELL YES. XD Are you kidding? I was all about the random HP cosplay for a while there (and even some pseudo Who whilst in England). And once I get my Ten suit no power on Earth will get me out of it. Well, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration as I reckon it'll have to be washed from time to time. But! Still... I'll be dressing up all the freaking time. XD

And thanks for the icon love. You've got some spiffy ones yourself. :)

Duuuude, if I could pull off wearing a Ten suit like you do in the pics you have up on FB, I'd never step out of it either!

I used to have more Ten icons, but for some reason I took them down when Eleven started cuz I thought I should. I should put them back. Right now my icons look like they've been infected by a Boosh virus. LOL

:snort: So what are your favorite fics/authors?

I've heard tales of people hiding from their advisors. But yeah, I was crying out for help because I need a push. Being held responsible works for me because I have that sense of duty to others more than to myself. Not sure if that's a good trait or not!

I will post about my class. It was fine. I had two iced teas today and ate before teaching. Plus, it's material I know backwards and forwards. But thanks! I too have spaced out in the middle of a thought. :o)
