I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Do only people named Kat get to go to the British Isles? That doesn't seem fair.

Where does cash cab air?

Discovery.

OMG! So much fun! How does one get on this show? Just random dumb luck? How much can you win? Are the questions closer to Jeopardy or Supermarket Sweep?

Yes, dumb luck! I just saw a pair of women win like $1300. The questions are possibly exactly halfway between Jeopardy and Supermarket Sweep -- regular person trivia.

kat, it's totally different. I don't plan! For the Pop culture class, I NEVER plan. Isn't that awful?

Also, I coteach both classes.

And it's different because I don't assign things or grade etc. It's all pass fail and if you come and participate it's a pass.

Jesse is going to have to take more cabs to up her odds.

I must find a way to get on this show! Pop culture, random chance and money. Sounds like a little slice 'o heaven.

And I don't know how the British Isles will survive all the Kat-tasticness.

Seriously. I want free money so bad! It must be time to do a focus group.

No planning! Now the pop culture in the classroom class sounds better than ever. How do y'all decide on the topics for each week, or is it just a free flowing conversation? Sorry to be all up in the Kool-Aid. It just sounds like a lot of fun.

It is fun. We read pieces about culture-- my fave was part of Everything Bad Is Good for You which is awesome and discuss and now we're producing some lessons and a bibliography of sorts. It's good. mellow.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Supposed to go to a friend's for the evening. To hang, chat, sip wine and oh yeah, rip out an old presumed dead power supply and replace with a replacement.

Tummy decided about an hour and a half ago to crumple me with IBS pain. I took the MakeCassStupid meds and it seems to be working okay but this is with minimal movement.

To go there, I need to shower and drive about 25 miles. What do I do?

Poll:
a. Shower and go, it'll be fun. Or, at least, fine.
b. Reschedule.
c. Push the time back an hour or so and don't crack open a computer tower until the woozy drugs wear off.
d. The hell? Where is the tickybox?

Mmmm. Mellow. Mellow is good. And now I have a new book to add to my list. Just in the nick of time cause I finished my last "new" book on Tuesday.
