Many happy returns, Sophia!
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Happy birthday, super pretty Sophia!
Hey, look at Jessica's flippin' baby.
Glad it sounds like Emmett has a good teacher.
She's small and hobbitty. Kind of post-hippie hobbit.
Eleven years definitely sounds like an experienced teacher to me, Kristin. In fact, if I was a parent of one of your students I'd probably consider that to be ideal. Very capable but not burned out and coasting.

While I was in a four hour committee meeting online last night, I discovered that Tilex fumes are fierce. Like 'I can no longer feel my nose' fierce. Totally murderized all the mold in my bathroom, though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Ah, for the good old days, when x-raying stuff could solve all life's problems....
Grocer Builds “X-ray” to Sell Customers Flawless Spuds (Nov, 1932)
WHAT is more embarrassing to a housewife who boasts of her cooking than to have her mashed potatoes turn out black, or to have her guest slice into a deliriously baked cobbler and find it with a black cavity?
Confronted with complaints from housewives on bad potatoes, an Ames, Iowa, groceryman rigged up a potato X-ray, or candling device to inspect choice potatoes before they go to the fastidious customer.
Oddly enough, the groceryman died of cancer 6 months after inventing this.
OK, that's just a guess....

...I'm sorry, but she must be making mashed potatoes in some strange Great Depression way, because I always thought you peeled them first and therefore could tell if they were rotten before you boiled them.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Happy Birthday Sophia!
