YSK I really need to change my cell number just so my family can not call and interrupt my energy flow.

YSAK they are very persistent and when I do not answer call back for like ten minutes and it is very annoying on a Saturday night when I am trying to relax

YSK that I am determined to start doing my work ahead of time. I gotta stop stressing myself out with school.

YSK I'm so thankful for my BSF (best school friend). She has drug me kicking and screaming through grad school. Sometimes I return the favor.

Talking

I never get tired of walks with my dog. Strangers stop in their tracks to greet her -- she always succeeds in putting a smile on everyone's face (including hers -- yes, she's a smilin' kind o' dog).

YSK: I can hear everything you say in your foghorn voice over that thin divider wall.
YSK: Being included on the United Way scavenger hunt list (Hint 5: Find the girl with the gap-toothed smile in {division}) was alternately completely thrilling (as was posing cheesily for many phone pictures) and slightly insulting (people NOTICE? Oh God. Braces. I need braces now.)
YSK: You save my butt on a daily basis by stepping up and being my technical lead without any accolades but the steady stream of "thank you thank you thank you" you get from me. This is worth a commendation to the company president.
YSK: I keep putting the toonie I owe you in my wallet every day you're not there. Where should I leave it so you find it when I'm not there and you are?
YSK: I couldn't live a day without you, Mom.
YSK: Thank you for the balloon... I wrote HOORAY FOR EVERYTHING on it and carefully pinned it to my cupboard. Best. Boss. Ever.
YSK: If you keep feeding me bacon at this alarming yet delightful rate, you will soon not be able to get your arms all the way around me. If that doesn't matter... *points to bacon hole/mouth*
YSAK: To the above... I love you. Thank you for loving me.

YSK if you keep putting it off, it will be new years.
YSAK I'm sure Maddie would be glad to tell you exactly where she wants the lights, if you'll only let her be in charge.

YSK I already received a phone call from Miss Maddie informing me that I'm not allowed to put the lights up without her proper supervision.
YSK I got another phone call checking to make sure I wasn't putting the lights up today. lol

YSK I learned something today:

The construction "from whence" has been criticized as redundant since the 18th century. It is true that whence incorporates the sense of from: a remote village, whence little news reached the wider world. But "from whence" has been used steadily by reputable writers since the 14th century, most notably in the King James Bible: "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help" (Psalms). Such a respectable precedent makes it difficult to label the construction as incorrect.
Still, it may be observed that whence (like thence) is most often used nowadays to impart an archaic or highly formal tone to a passage, and that this effect is probably better realized if the archaic syntax of the word without "from" is preserved as well.


The things you learn while you write papers. Now, that's taken up some space in my brain that was probably occupied by something useful. Dammit.
