Well, I don't know about CANNOT. But I'm pretty sure that'd be a special request.
Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

I'm still mad at "The Vagina Monologues" too. If you're going to have a whole damned show celebrating the pussy, get yer anatomical language down right.
The vag is one INSIDE part of the whole she-bang (hee). It's NOT the entire area.
This may be a slight pet peeve of mine.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So I'm guessing the term vajazzling gets your goat too, Erin?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
msbelle, I wholeheartedly agree with everything Erin said above Erin "Natter 66: Get Your Kicks." Aug 30, 2010 1:20:53 pm PDT
We work with our students on using their assignment notebook every day. It is totally an organizational skill that they need to learn. I used to give stickers to my advisory class on Fridays if they had filled out their notebook for every class each day. Even as 8th graders, they loved it. And, like Erin, if I had a student falling behind, I would work with the parent to have them do home checks of the notebook every day.
It's not a trust thing, it's an organizational skill that will help the student succeed in school.

They had different varieties, but I didn't look to see what they were. I went for the color I'm used to.

Strangely enough, the whole idea is so ridonkulous that I can't muster up enough spleen.
(Although, really, it should be "VULjazzling."

things are better. thanks for all the good thoughts and wishes.
Erin - a standard reward board, like stickers tends not to work with mac, much like a standard punishment structure won't either. He has a homework notebook provided by the school and a specific homework folder in his binder, it's just that I do not think the teachers check it, so no idea if he really writes down everything and then there are random worksheet pages in his folder that he has done no work on, but that also do not have a due date on them. My feeling is if a worksheet is handed out, it should be done, he just freaks the fuck out and says they did not say it was due or homework.

Because books.
Vajazzling is one of those things that makes me feel like a total fogey. Why, world?
My feeling is if a worksheet is handed out, it should be done, he just freaks the fuck out and says they did not say it was due or homework.
At that age, though, unless some big letter comes home about a project due in the future, papers sent home that day are generally homework due the next day.
I have no idea how you make him understand that it's an understood rule, though.
