Sometimes it takes in-depth conversation to suss out a true level of speaking ability.

I guess, if you're going to go ahead and assume someone's an idiot you may need more effort to shake that perception.

But I've never heard him give a lummoxy interview. I keep thinking the next one might be the one where he lives down to that facet of public perception.

It disappoints me that I am provided the incentive to bother.

I feel like hell. I barely slept and just feel generally wrecked.

Clearly, you should not be aggravating yourself by trying to understand the Public. Honestly, with Vin I think it's about how he looks and sounds, not about what he says. He doesn't talk fast, he's got that voice, etc. The Rock (for example) just has a way about him that indicates "clever," regardless of what he's actually saying.

ita, can you stay home today, by any chance?

I swear, half of what I'm trying to get at is about the shape of his jaw.

The Public sucks. Especially since I've engaged with more than one of their number that should Know Better.

I wish there were some simple test I could take for a sick day. If nothing hurts but I really feel like crap ... is it worth a sick day?

Oh. Right.

Pre-migraine. Why does it always take me so long to recognise the feeling?

Ugh, ita. Imitrex yourself, now.

Laura, is dh going to talk to the coach, about approaching the officials regarding your son being targeted because he's the big kid?

Dad, son, and coach have all rejected this. They say it is only a few rotten kids and everyone already knows who they are. Then they get into this macho talk about how my son needs to elbow and knee in kind so they will stop messing with him. This kind of talk is crazy making to me. I'm just grateful that we are all on the same page for limiting playing time while he is in pain.

Stay home, ita!

Oh yuck, do what you must to stop it dead in its tracks.

Kat, what menonite mob?

I didn't see it, Cindy. But apparently Mennonites were having a hard time making ends meet so they "turned from Bibles to Bullets" and began running drugs. Violence ensued and the are no under investigation by the FBI.

All gleaned from the commercial.

Morning folks.

I'd like to acknowledge that Robin is a goddess.
