<---tells Robin that if her hair is controlling, then <---'s hair must be planning to take over the world

<---LOL at "nappy" coffee
<---thought she felt a very strong pull from the top of Liann's head during the RT
<---thinks maybe wearing a tightly knit cap would work better then foil
<---says the evil hair rays would get tangled in the weave and protect the wearer from both incoming and personal hair rays
<---adds that the resulting hat hair from wearing such a hat would further subdue evil hair
<---waves to Beth and tells her to enjoy the quiet time alone
<---missed that Nancy was having back problems and sends strong healing vibes (but not from the top of my head)

<---or maybe's Shelley's hair

<---maybe just needs a good stylist and all <---'s problems will go away
<---a good stylist and some chocolate :9
<---tells Michele that <--- likes cardio more than weights... looks like we're both being forced out of our element by injury - BOOOO!

<---is going to have bulging biceps, huge pectoral muscles, and scrawny little legs :p

<--totally agrees with robin's HCT theory
<--realizes that <--'s hair is the real reason <--can't get back on the clean eating train!
<--did iTread #7 (a favorite) today then continued for 15 more minutes to make a total of 8.3 miles in 75 minutes...woo-hoo!!!
<--is serioulsy addicted to iTread
<--may need to go to iTread Anonymous
<--have only done HIIT twice but thinks there is a difference in running performance and efficiency
<--will tell dissertation drama in non-<-- speak:
i had to turn in a methodology form which basically outlines my entire study, the purpose of the study, the rationale for the study, the sample characteristics, the statistics i am going to use, etc., etc., etc. i sent it to my mentor at the beginning of the semester and never heard back so i thought all was good. i sent another email about it about three weeks later. didn't hear anything and thought i should at least get some notice that my methodology form and topic was approved. i emailed again only to have her tell me she never got my first two emails!!! crap-ola! so, i emailed it again. she reviewed it and then proceeded to tell me she didn't think i had a good enough study because i wasn't really adding anything "new" to the literature as she thought my study had unequivocally been proven (it hasn't). mind you, i have been working on various parts of my dissertation for at least the past 6 months and have already written chapters one, two, and three. anyway...i had to go back and redo my methodology form and make a case as to why this is a good study. basically, i showed that while a lot of the data agrees with what i am trying to find (positive correlation), there is also a great deal of conflicting data that shows no correlation or even a negative correlation. so, i made the case that i was going to try and "clear up" the confusion brought about by the conflicting results of previous studies. i turned that in on friday and had to wait THE WHOLE WEEKEND x( to see if all the work i had previously done was for crap and i would have to start all over. i got an email from her last night that all was good and she sent in my form. whew!!! if i had to start all over, i swear i might have just quit then. i have put in so much time and done so much work already. a lot of stress i didn't need. glad all is good now.
<--is very relieved dissertation drama is over for now
<--is just waiting to see what the next drama will be because <--is convinced there will be more x(

ETA:
<--thinks evily's piriformis problems are a result of the HCT
 
<---is :O at Lorie's dissertation drama story
<---is relieved that everything worked out in the end
<---knows <--- would have been wetting her pants in a similar situation especially after having done all that work!!!

ETA:
<---waves hi to Melissa!
<---was sorry to hear that she was in the hospital! :(
<---is glad that she is back
 
<---would have gone crazy waiting over the weekend for dissertation OK
<---is relieved that it came eventually
<---thinks Lorie's hair must have been messing with the email
 
<--sneaks into thread to wave hello to everyone
<--has not read ^^^^
<--was hit with tons of files and calls to return as soon as <--got to office
<--should be happy she is busy but it is making her cranky!!!
<--hopes to bbl with personals
<--tells everyone to have a wonderful day
<--sneaks back out of thread before she gets caught playing instead of returning phone calls!!!
 
<--- says x( to Lorie's dissertation problems
<--- says ;( to Emily's piriwotsit problems
<--- says :p to HCT problems
<--- has finished saying things!
<--- is off to pick DD up from first day of year 2 (sorry, can't translate that!!!)
<--- may not bbl
 
<---is ROFLMAO here at work:

A coworker was at the dollar store and found sets of pirate hats with either a hook or a sword. She is taking orders for TLAP Day and all the girls requested a hook, while the two guys want swords. How phallic is that?!??!?
