I never said I thought you made it up! I said I'd never heard it before and it sounded funny. But I figured you got it from somewhere.
(Also, I thought you were saying "kittywompus". Or maybe "cattywompus". Which are both even funnier.)
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

I'm so sorry, Nora. Anything we can do?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry June isn't over yet, Nora.
I've heard caddywompus, but I don't know what it means. That link is blocked by the office netnanny, which surprises me.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Caddywompus, yep.
As in "That car is parked all caddywompus."
Kristin, I have the Burke English Teacher's Companion; it was the text in my English Methods class, and about the only useful text. Plus, I used stuff from his webpage just about every day while student teaching.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
vw, you are not the only person who uses that word. I have never before thought about how to spell it, though, and every way looks, well, caddywompus...kattywompus...kaddy....

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
So no tweaking? Damn. I see little things that I want to go back and fix in the news story, the press release is fine, but the paper I really want to make into something to show off. But, I will let it go.
At least you didn't find them *in* the toilet
Wait until Lily's older. Actually, that reminds me of a Trout Fishing song, "Baby's Got the Car Keys"

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?
I've been thinking about starting an English teacher LJ just for my English teaching friends...
Could future English teachers lurk and hork ideas??

What is even happening?
My car is dead. I went out to start it at just before I had to take Julia to school (within walking distance) and pick Chris up (so not within walking distance).
I can't find my AAA card.
I snarked at my husband.
I have a headache.
I have to go to a meeting tonight that is only going to increase my headache.
I haven't started supper.
Ben is being a PITA about his homework.
Oh. Great. Now Julia's annoying him and he's yelling about it.
Chris is currently being parented by the TV.
I have no money.
I'm too fat.
I still have a great haircut, but what's that worth, if I pull all my hair out of my head in frustration? Bueller? Anyone?

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
I'm sorry June isn't over yet, Nora.
We're not even HALF THROUGH. Jeeeeezus.
My usual onsite professional attitude is a bit... well, less professional than usual. I am just so.... done.
