Tutoring

[gray_ghost]

Drama for today

Characters involved:

Myself

 Semi-hysterical math dept. office lady (who I really am not fond of)

Location (calculus tutoring room)

Her Corpulence:  Were you scheduled to be here at 3:00!?

Myself:  No.

Her Corpulence:  Who was scheduled?!?! No one WAS HERE.

Myself:  I don't know.  Why don't you check the sign-in sheet.

Her Corpulence:  Someone was supposed to be here.

Myself:  I got here at 4:05.  Actually I'm supposed to here at 4:00 but

Applied Math Seminar ran over and I had to speak a little with my adviser.

Her Corpulence:  You weren't here at 4:05. 

Myself:  Yes I was.

Her Corpulence:  No you weren't.  I was watching the clock.

Myself: Well my wristwatch is set to an atomic cesium clock in

Boulder, Colorado.  How do you set your clocks?

Her Corpulence:  grrrrrrr.....well all I know is someone has to

be here at 3 and no one was and you need to do something about

that.

Myself:  Talk to Dr. R....he's the coordinator for all of us.

Re: Her primary problem

you have to have some uploaded - that's the second set of stuff i needed to do for you (other than customize your colors). You now have the limit of icons you get with a free account (3). Now when you make a posting, you'll have the option to choose between them. To view them/rename them, go to Manage/User Pictures

and note, not a SINGLE Buffy - although you have to admit that icon i used was kind of cool, right?

Here she goes, hijacking again...

The face is so purty! *lusts*

I was going to comment in a different comment-y thing, but I'll conserve space and do so here:

Awk! Her Corpulence sounds exceedingly scary/insane. I just love it when people expect her to solve all their problems when you've made it perfectly clear that it is not in your control *rolls eyes*

~e!

Glad you like the face =) I'm a little apprehensive that it's too scary
and not representative of my real personality. But actually it must be representative of a part of me - because I picked it out! It's Dave McKean
artwork (http://www.mckean-art.co.uk/) and I love everything he does. I think he's most famous for doing the illustrations for the cover of Sandman and for Wizard and Glass - 4th in Stephen King's Dark Tower series.

Actually there is a cool pic in Wizard and Glass of a rose that he did which I really want to make into an icon. Couldn't find it last night though =(

She is kind of creepy. She looks a lot like my former boss at Infinlink (place I used to work at before I went back to school). He was pretty corpulent too. Actually - bloated might be a more fitting adjective.

actually, in my infinite wisdom, I totally lost the train of thought, and was speaking of this icon:



That said, I really do like the face, and I personally don't find it to be too scary. It's definitely eerie, tho', and I love the melty skin effect :) I'm definitely a fan of that sort of artwork...(also? I'm really not an art snob; I know nothing about it, so I apoligise if I sound all pretentious or as though I'm trying to sound pretentious...).
