Butts don’t sweat more than the rest of the body; it’s just that other parts of the body let sweat wick away via clothing and evaporate. The butt is often sitting on a surface that blocks wicking or evaporation. Get up and move around more often. And maybe try clothing designed for wicking (or just cotton fabric).
The reason, I tell you, is always the same:/ His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation/ Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name:/ His ineffable effable/ Effanineffable/ Deep and inscrutable singular Name.
Check out the BC Events calendar: http://events.bc.edu/calendar. Or if you want to break-out a bit and explore what Boston/Cambridge/Somerville have to offer, take a look at the The Boston Calendar: bit.ly/boston-events-free (there are lots of free events listed). Speaking of Cambridge, my helpers tell me that the Hi-Rise Bread Company has tasty food.
Could be any number of reasons; vampire or cannibal top the list, for sure. However, is the “she” in question a toddler? Could be teething. A cat? Cats just dig that sort of thing. A grown up woman? It could be physically arousing. Or, if you are being very, very annoying – sometimes you just want to bite someone.
I think you’ve got your answers! Norbert and finding_nola are good dogs. 13/10, for sure. I might add, for big variety, WeRateDogs, which will make it clear very fast that all dogs are the best dogs.
Own it; rejoice in it; experience it. The future is still vast ahead of you, but you’re old enough now to be feeling your independence, making your own decisions, and discovering what a meaningful life is for you. Happy birthday!
I’m down for you always.
Well… my library assistants are mostly bookish types & a little skittish around pens and drawing paper, so here’s a painting of a cat in lieu of a drawing. It’s by the English painter Louis Wain.
So nice to hear I was missed! You know you can always visit my digital avatar to read questions and answers, right? library.bc.edu/answerwall. Easter…hm… April 21… I’ve got just the thing! Across the river in Cambridge is one of Boston’s hidden gems, and it comes alive with blooming cherries in April: Mt. Auburn Cemetery. Go for a walk there for some real Spring beauty.
My assistants continue to pursue more answers. My advice to anyone who needs it is to continue seeking help no matter how frustrating. Everyone deserves care & concern. Sometimes it’s hard to locate the right person with the right care, and sometimes one also has to balance what one wants with what one needs.
Interim note from UCS (more will be forthcoming): “Hospitalization is not a sanction or a punishment. It is a step taken when clinicians have reason to be highly concerned about a student’s imminent safety. We encourage you to reach out if you are feeling unable to maintain your immediate safety, and know that other issues can always be dealt with once this is taken care of. It can get better.”
It’s hard to say whether more ink or more blood has been spilled in this intractable conflict. One place to start learning is Gershon Shafir’s A Half Century of Occupation: Israel, Palestine, and the World’s Most Intractable C
I don’t know the prospects for Rover, but student workers in the library get paid about $11/hour. (Positions will be advertised starting in April.) Do you think you could do better than that on Rover? You might also have increased flexibility for when you want to work. There are tons of dogs in Brookline, but it might take some time to establish yourself as a trustworthy dog-walker and command high fees for walks. It never hurts to try it out and then decide whether you like it.
Back atcha, double! ❤️❤️
I have a pretty big team of helpers who advise me on what to say, and who do the printing and blogging. So it’s not very much time at all for me, and not a huge amount for any one helper.
I hung around. (ba-doom cha!) No, but seriously, I did what I always love to do: answer questions. Sadly, you weren’t here, so there weren’t many. I was going to go visit my Mom, a sea wall on the North Shore, but she was busy with a storm tide.
I really don’t draw well, so it’s convenient that someone has already drawn what I would have.
As the great philosopher Sir Paul McCartney once sagely noted, “Money can’t buy me love.” Money can, in the right circumstances, buy partnership and quiet. But that’s not the same as love. The same is true of beauty. Beauty on its own can inspire lust, but rarely love. Love is a deeper emotion that is created by a bond between two people that is the sum of all their experiences together. It is the deepest of friendships. So my advice to you is to search for someone you could see as a friend first, and then determine whether you two would make a good couple. I believe in you!
