Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I have so much work that I now need TWO MONITORS to do it all.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

It took me half a minute to get that.

It's a rare kind of geek that thinks 'lizard' before 'computer screen'. And that right there is the difference between me and -- um, humanity.

What's interesting is if you look at the literature on sleep patterns, it really ought to be more that way. Young kids are mentally and physically alert early in the morning, yet in many place they start school late. Teenagers, no matter how much sleep they get, are mentally more alert mid-morning. School starting even at nine or nine thirty would be better for them, and for the poor folks who have to go in to teach them.

The status is NOT quo.

Fay's story made me giggle a lot.

Now tagless for your comfort.

DH wishes they had a third shift for actuaries. He's most active from about midnight to 2 a.m. Mornings, he hates.

Oh, Brenda, don't get me started. My first hour class was so sleepy and unmotivated. However, since I stumbled into work at 7:31 every morning, clutching a venti coffee and growling like Godzilla with roid rage, we got along well. They didn't talk to me till the 8 a.m. bell rang, and knew that my temper was...uncertain...till I'd had 1/2 a cup of coffee. In fact, after they got comfortable with me, they'd often say "Ms. G., do you need more coffee?"

(Of course. after they got TOO comfortable with me, they'd ask things like "Did you drink too much last night? Did you party all night?" And since I HADN'T, this made me grumpier, knowing my gronk came from nothing like fun.)

yes! The biggest drawback about teaching for me is the hours. I honestly don't know how I'm going to handle having to be at work at 7:30am.

This, too, was my biggest fear, and remains my greatest challenge. Aropund the end of October, though, I started waking up at 6:45.

My greatest teaching tip? Never teach with a hangover. I did this ONCE. I generally never went out on school nights, but I stayed out WAY too late on a date and vodka took me amiss, and oh, god, just DON'T.

Now tagless for your comfort.

My senior year in high school I had English first period. It's a good thing it was my favorite subject and I learned a lot from the reading because there's only so much you can learn staring out of one bloodshot eye.

There are at least three pictures of me sleeping in that class and the second period study hall, where I could mercifully sack out on a sofa in the journalism office (where I managed to get assigned thanks to a fantastic teacher.)

Yikes. If I skipped more classes instead of sleeping in them, I'd be Ferris Bueller.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I am a complete idiot. I left the house today without my purse. No license, no money, no credit cards, no medicine, nothing. I didn't even realize it until I was an hour away at therapy. Thank God Mom was around to give me money to get gas to get home again. Why am I allowed to run my own life? The best part was I remember to bring books with me. I need more sleep.

Jack and Zoe are so adorable and with such pinchable cheeks!

Congratulations on the house, amych!!!

Yay, vw!!!

If my world would accomodate it, I would sleep from 3am to 11am. But, my world is not accomodating.

Me too.

That is the cutest dress that Em is wearing. Good job, vw!!!
