My university just banned all tobacco today. :roll: As if they weren't wasting enough time trying to enforce pointless paternalistic policies and spending taxpayer dollars to do it, now we have one more. They couldn't even manage to enforce the 20 foot from the door rule, and now they want to have the cops walking around to keep people from smoking on the way to class. Frak having them patrol to keep vandalism and theft down, now they have to be out to keep people from smoking. :mad:

They're talking about doing that at my school. And I just wish they'd focus and enforce the 30-foot rule they already have.

But you see, they can't keep the schools safe. But they can't admit that can they?

So they have to do SOMETHING that they can claim as a victory over the forces of evil. And this at least is semi-somewhat-enforceable if they don't look too hard.

*hopeful look*


Unfortunately, I didn't bring any back-- we took my sister's boyfriend to a port wine "house" for a tour and tasting, so he got my dad a pack with three bottles. I don't drink, so I just gave my totally uneducated opinion of which bottles to buy :D . But I did bring back a few months worth (with rationing) of cookies and cereal :D . If the airport hadn't been so packed today, I might have gotten some in duty free for my boss and skating coach, but as it is... well, I'm going to scramble now for gifts (tip: never wait for the last minute!)

I'm baack in the US. No return to France, so I got to hop on the plane this morning and, an 8 hr flight later... I'm here. whew. Dunno if I have to head back to France in the next few weeks, but it's doubtful. (S'Okay. I've had my fill for the next month or so)

Our flight from Lisbon was delayed because the toilets were broken. Now, that was amusing to watch as people kept trooping in and trying different things.

And I'm faaaaaaaat. Too much good food + limited exercise= fat Emberchyld. We had lots of walking this past week in Portugal, but it wasn't enough to make up for a week of French goodies. Back to the elliptical and salads tommorrow....

That was one of the beautiful things about TOS. Symbolism abounded. :)

At the risk of sounding like a 39 year old mother of three...

I would say save yourself for someone you love. Save yourself for someone who cherishes and respects you. You deserve that.

Nah, besides, I have plastered ceilings.

The mystery continues...

Don't give up hope, TPoptarts, there'll be someone, just wait. :)
