Doyle ,'Life of the Party'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Where I went to school some of us diagrammed and some of us did not. I was in classes where we did not.
My ancient stick to itself ace bandage is not sticking to itself very well. I don't think my leg is wrapped as tightly as it ought to be.
Plus, my shoulder and neck still hurt.
If I were in charge of the world, everyone would have to diagram sentences for at least a semester. Of course, many people have expressed their gratitude that I'm not in charge of the world.
Ouch. Poor sumi. Do you have cold packs around?
sumi, do you have some tape or a safety pin to secure the ace bandage? Have you taken any painkillers of the anti-inflammatory variety?
I would like Ginger's world.
Poor sumi!
Ouch, Sumi.
My new TV comes today! Whoot!
Maybe I should think about cleaning around here. Oh, and crap - do I have to tip? I don't have any cash, I don't think. Well, I won't have them set it up or anything.
I've never diagrammed a sentence, though I'm vaguely aware of how it's done.
And yet I make a living as an editor. Revel in the irony.
The return of grammar:
I'm earwormed with "SexyBack," only now it's "I'm bringing grammar back...."
Sumi, can you use safety pins on the bandage? I find stick to itself Ace bandages disappointing even when new.
My moose looks like this, except he also has a striped T-shirt on underneath the overalls. He's named Tooth.
I (born 1972) have never diagrammed a sentence. I know what it is from reading Laura Ingalls Wilder, though.
flea is almost me. I was born in 1973, and was so fascinated by the sentance diagramming in Laura Ingalls Wilder that I actually got a turn of the century textbook and diagrammed on my own time.
I never diagrammed a sentence, either, and I did learn some grammar in Spanish class that had never been covered in English. The really funny thing in the more advanced Spanish classes was the kids who were native speakers (or, at least, had learned it at home) with bad grammar arguing with the teacher. It was the equivalent of a kid arguing that "me and her went to the store" must be right, because that's how they've always said it.
ION, I don't feel good! I came to work because I don't think I'm actually sick, but I feel yucky in my tummy and have a headache. Bah.
