's okay, smonster. I just get a little tetchy at the generality. Not--that I ever do anything like that. Right, sure, uh huh.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Kathy,
does this mean Blago is going to jail for a long time?

Sounds like the thinking is that he might get 8-10 years.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
When I was meeting with clients, I tried to dress like a professional because they were paying me and I wanted to show respect for that. When I met with the public (as a consultant), I tried not to dress too much better than anyone else in the room because it would make it look like my client was wasting their money.
When I taught middle school I used to dress up as a way of sort of honoring my students. Like they deserved the respect of someone choosing to be professional with them. I have gotten increasingly schlubby and am the worst dressed teacher on my wing (the other was a former lawyer who was all Talbots and the other other is a size 2 tiny who has no children and a lot of disposable income). Now I tend to costume dress depending on how I feel.
My mother has this issue with doing teacher training -- a suit is too much, but she does want to be dressed up to some degree.
HA! Especially because teachers can be super schlubby! When I do professional development, I always wear a skirt, heels, tights or hose and a nice top. Sometimes a jacket.
So, our principal is leaving and we are getting a new one. I'm choosing to optimistically view this as change is good.

I posted this in Premium Cable, but there's a new 11-minute promo for Torchwood out!
SO excited! It looks fun as hell.
I wonder if I can persuade my husband that Starz is a perfectly cromulent addition to our cable package...
