Awkward First Day Of School Pictures
A collection of the most uncomfortable, miserable back to school pictures I could find.
I dunno - in some of the pictures the kids were happy. What's up with that? I was promised misery!

I totally zoned out at the burger place today and didn't notice them call my order. Luckily the guy beside me knew what I'd ordered, and gave me a heads up.
Wait, hello? Why do you know what I ordered? Weird much?
Dustin Brown continues to be lovely.
Just bought my books for the fall. Three textbooks, totalling $185. Ugh.
I like small spaces (hiding under a desk has often looked like a very comforting idea) but only if tree is a large space outside. So as a ki I read about these cupboard beds some scandanavian types used to have, and thought it was awesome, but caves would not work.
Sorry to everyone here who just received a spam message from my old hotmail account. Argh.
Take a look at this Google Trends page for "bed bugs". [link] Damn, there's been a huge jump just in the last few months.
Somewhat relatedly, Google's New York office has bed bugs.
It's so weird -- I couldn't read the Times article last week or whenever about bedbugs, but apparently they ("They") have no idea why they suddenly had this huge resurgence over the past few years? Bananas.
My nice coworker gave me a nice ride home! Too bad we only decided on the way to the T which I thought would be more convenient for her, so we went a stupid way and it kind of took forever. But nice! And good to talk.
The thing about bedbugs that amazes me is the stigma. They don't cause disease, they are not associated with uncleanliness - they are itchy and annoying, but so are mosquitoes and there is no stigma about those!

Really? I've always looked askance at them, what with the whole stagnant water requirement.
Which, in Jamaica, is pissing against the wind, but I can't help but think if we were doing something right we wouldn't have that problem.
Mosquitoes can breed in tiny tiny puddles. Unless you live in a desert, they are very common. If you live somewhere humid, they are guaranteed.
