Maybe I&#8217;ll be lucky and only catch the edges of postmodern sleaze. Cross fingers, knock on wood. I am more than satisfied with pictures of such events. I&#8217;m sure they&#8217;re fun, but as I don&#8217;t drink, there would be nothing to take the edge off my awareness. I think I would need that.<\/p>\n<p>I think&#8230;.. Actually&#8230;. I think it&#8217;s the kids today. They&#8217;re far worse than usual. Two of the girls have discovered that saying they&#8217;re bleeding all over thier keyboards from cutting gets them attention from the boys thought of as &#8220;cute&#8221; in the chatroom. (The deciding logic of who wants to date who escapes me). Particularly annoying to me is that the head &#8220;cute&#8221; boy is a severe fundie. So chat runs mainly today between the cutters and the fundies interspersed with the usual mind scraping talk about teen celebraties, pokemon, and in-chat dating. I&#8217;m tongue tied. If I say even one of the things that occurs to me in such a situation, I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll lose my job. <\/p>\n<p>Bring me gelati before I die.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh dear god.
