Let's reject them! <BR/><BR/>Dear Department I'd Rather Die than Teach In:<BR/><BR/>I hearby reject you. The fact that I have heard nothing from you yay or nay suggests a level of unconcern for common politeness that I find shocking -- and totally undesirable in colleagues who I will see every day and who will vote on my tenure.

(Jealous? I'm sure.) The line at the bar in the aftermath was impressive.<BR/><BR/>I should really get to the dentist as often as possible, as this will be the one year I have dental insurance, in between the previous four years of not having it and what-I'm-sure-will-be-more-than-four-years of not having it in the future.<BR/><BR/>Your blogger present came in the mail on Wednesday and is absolutely lovely. I've already made use of it.

I am getting them all filled (AND a cleaning) next friday under sedation; it's the only way to get me to do it at all. Then I won't go for another half decade or so *grin*Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12344627954381434696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7366909960546184927.post-11573148077955189802007-12-14T22:09:00.000-08:002007-12-14T22:09:00.000-08:00I know!

You should go get that toothbrush with the remote control thinga-ma-jiggy that tells you how long you've brushed, when you're pushing too hard, etc. That way you kill two birds with one stone: You make your dentist happy and you spend the entire weekend trying to figure out how to work the damn thing and wondering why you spent so much money on something like a toothbrush. Way more fun that worrying about the wiki! ;) <BR/>--SarahLoose Baggy Monsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03538653635672644780noreply@blogger.com
