I got out. There was a fight between 8th grade armenian boys and one 6th grade black girl. The boys took off, called their parents who were pissed and the dads came down, invited their relatives to "take care of it."

There was a huge police presence.

What is wrong with these people?

I have no idea. I just had to deal with a phantom toilet-plugger. Glad you are out.

I think I'm going to be dusting for months. Every surface I did earlier? Still gritty. Target tomorrow to arm myself with every dusting gimmick known to man. HATE PINE POLLEN. It's actually enough I may ask one of my neighbors if she knows any housecleaners (she used to be one.) I can deal with one go-round. More than that as stuff settles? Makes me want to cry.

DH just came home from the store with a cake. With 1860 on it. For K-Bug. She couldn't figure out the number until we said we were going to call the SAT folks and have them revolk some points.

So sweet!

glad you are free,Kat.

I like a combination of pledge /orange sheets for wood and multipurpose sheets for other surfaces. Not environmentally friendliest - but captures and disposes of dust/pollen

An 11-year-old Alabama boy used a pistol to kill a wild hog his father says weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9-feet-4 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail.

That's SOME pig! (c.f., Zuckerman's famous, etc.)

I finally crawled out of bed to forage for food, and made an omelet out of random crap I had left in the refrigerator. It's an exceedingly odd omelet, but tasty.

I just had to explain to my 8th-graders today what Armenian means so we could watch a bit about tensions between Armenian and Hispanic students in, I think, LA.

Only three more hours for me.

The next time someone in a tank top and cutoff shorts tell me it is too cold in the theatre I am going to give them a sweater out of the lost and found.

Anyone about?

I just got back from the kitty emergency hospital place....
