Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm trying to get everything around and in order for tomorrow morning since a sitter will be getting the kids ready for school.

I haven't had time to get nervous about surgery. But there is magic marker on my boobs.

My friend's son refused to speak in Farsi, even though his dad always tried to speak to him in that language. I'm sure he picked some up even if he didn't want to.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Dr. Google says inhalents - paint, glue that sort of thing.

Nah, whip-its is huffing the compressed gas from a whipped cream charger (or, if you're as sophisticated about these things as I was in HS, a can of cool whip). Inhalants, yes; sniffing glue, nsm.

I have no comment on whippits. *cough*

Did I say "when I was in HS"? I mean, umm, when someone who once met my sister was in HS.

NOT THAT I EVER DID THAT.

hahahaha. Now we know the truth about Amy.

Then again, how else would I know that the kid twitching and cowering the elevator corner with the can of spray air (you know? the keyboard cleaning stuff) was really doing drugs?

This may be why I'd never be a good hs teacher: I never was a properly normal hs-er.

Did I mention I saw all the Twihards camped out in front of the theatre in the pouring rain this morning waiting for tonight's show? They were so cute.

You know if one of my HS friends was acting like that in an elevator, there would have been a 50% chance that they were high. They could have been just acting.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

My friend's son refused to speak in Farsi, even though his dad always tried to speak to him in that language. I'm sure he picked some up even if he didn't want to.

My lecturer, apropos of nothing, is married to an Iranian woman. Farsi is apparently a nemesis of his; more precisely, although his wife and his MiL both speak English perfectly well, they will still speak in Farsi even if he's around, thus excluding him from the conversation. That does strike me as rude. (I'm largely excluded from Wallybee's intrafamily conversations too, but her parents have limited English. Someone's going to be excluded, I'm fine with it being me. I can tell, however, that her dad's had a lot to say about Obama's visit to China.)
