So you're saying that they're now graded and marked?

I think I avoided THAT, but those quizzes and summaries are certainly traumatized...

watch out for knives, erin.

even though I didn't see the boy.

Tep's boy meets both beth and Matt's approval.

DH is on codine ( emergency root canal) and he is makeing me type "breasts can be described by a 4th order equation, 5th if yo include the movement ( and who doesn't) " Now he is claiming that this was a college assignment.

congradulations debetease and windsparrow.

and the fabric was cute, vw.

That's some good shit they gave Matt, isn't it, beth?

Wanna hear something scandalous? I forgot the papers I graded were on the bed.

That's right. I know. I KNOW.

Erin, please excuse me while I collapse in hopeless laughter over here. Love it. LOVE it.

if you're looking at a pretty conservative investment strategy, returns well into the double digits should be a warning sign you've taken a wrong turning.

So it's not just high school students? I gave a question on a quiz that said, it costs $30 to tile a 15 x 10 floor, how much does it cost to tile a 12x8 floor? I got a range of answers, none less than the correct answer, going all the way up to $3,870.

The what now?? How does it not occur to you that that's wrong?

Not in any way paying attention, Emily? At all?

I just woke up. This doesn't seem like a good idea. Unless I go right back to sleep, which seems unlikely as I ... haven't.

I was going to sleep in. That didn't work so much. Oh, well...maybe I'll nap later.

My mathy friend is constantly agog that his daughter never looks at her answers and tries to put them in rational perspective to the question. I keep trying to explain that doing the work is all S-type behaviour, and to step back and look at it is N-type behaviour, and it's hard for kids (and many adults) to transition between the two.

Of course, I always tried to guess the answer with my Super N Skillz in lieu of memorizing the equations.

Speaking of multiplying and such, I've been told that my savings for retirement should be (10% of my age) x (my average yearly salary). I've been contributing the maximum allowable by law to my retirement plan since I entered the workforce, and by this reckoning I'm dead in the middle. How does that work?

Medical ~ma to you, Maria. And YAY for job-having Andi! Woot!

And, I slept!

And, the my online bank account now shows just the one charge for my weekend food that I was whining about last night! (For two days it showed the second charge as pending but now it's gone!) Yay!

Bitches is pornalicious, as it should be!

It's like a whole new world! A beautiful new world!

(I'm not really as perky as I sound.) Off to shower now. Unfortunately, I still have to work in this new world.

I need to leave soon to go meet with my adviser and register for Fall classes. I'm being a lazy butt and don't want to go anywhere. But, I'm excited about the classes I've chosen. So, must get butt moving.
