I'd bet folding money that brenda's right about the parents tormenting the guy, back in their day. It's like Boo Radley, only with a bad ending.

Timelies.

I love the white dog and getting to take it home for the night would have been my sole goal if I'd been in Miss Fay's class.

{{{Sean and S}} ~ma to you both.

the place is still deserted.

I was sleeping. Aidan decided not to sleep until 5:30 this morning. Needless to say, he's missed his second day of school. Hopefully things will be better by Monday.

I get my hair cut at 4!!! Excited!!!

Again, generally speaking, I think it's not just the news coverage that favors good-looking cheerleader/football player types. Parents, teachers, cops, principals, etc., are all inclined to give 'em a pass on behavior they might not ignore in other, less Norman Rockwell kids.

Pug dogs dressed as famous people.

Me too! That cut's going to look so hot on you.

Yay! I get mine cut at 5. Which, since I misremember where you are, may be the same as your 4.

Yep. Some of the kids who gave me significant grief in elementary school were photogenic, ain't-we-just-too-cute types. When you're hitting me with rocks then no, you ain't just too cute. No one believed that the bruises came from "such nice kids".

Yay! I get mine cut at 5.

Right on! It's haircut day. Emmett's getting his hair cut today too.

We're doing prep work for Halloween at Universal Studios. We are having breakfast before heading to the warehouse. I just ordered huevos rancheros again.

Jealous. Of Halloween, and actual work, and huevos rancheros.

I'm debating whether to volunteer for the embassy Halloween party. The past two years would indicate that the community's idea of a good Halloween party and mine differ somewhat.

Fay, it all sounds great! What if the kid doesn't bring the dog back the next day, though? You might want to get another one (or two) just in case.

Another difference between Thailand and Malaysia, I guess: In Malaysia, common people were prohibited from wearing yellow, a la sumptuary laws. Not that anyone would support the royalty in Malaysia anyway. (And of course the big Malaysia news right now is that a Malay woman who has converted to Christianity is receiving death threats, because all Malays are Muslim by law).

I have new color, just need a cut.

Hey Hec, I am coming into the City tomorrow and I do need to stop by your place (surprise)...
