A moral question: should complementing a child's photo get you off the hook from very recent rude-ish behavior? Of the "So, how are you?... actually, that was just a conversational nicety - can you do this for me right now?" variety of rude... As in, should I email back, "Thanks!" or just sit here and glare?
Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie
I think I've mentioned the dorky school tradition we have here--as the students leave for the major vacations (winter, spring, summer), all the teachers gather in the front lawn and wave goodbye as the busses drive off. It's totally silly, but I love it. What I usually love the most about it, though, is that "the wave" marks the beginning of our vacation, too.
This time, nsm. We have to be here tomorrow unless we have turned in all of our grades, and I am nowhere near done. I've been working hard, but I still have...let's see...26 Lord of the Flies literary analysis final drafts, 4 creative writing portfolios, and 58 9th grade exams. Dammit. Why couldn't I have taught PE or something??

Shit's all sorts of different now.
OH MY GAWRSH! I totally forgot to post about this!
My uncle had a home video that my mom and dad and us kids had never seen so she showed it to us the night before my sister's wedding. I was about 9 at the time.
At one point, my brother (2 at the time) was playing with my FisherPrice castle people. He kept calling them "guys". I took them from him one at a time and said, "These aren't guys - THIS is Queen Elizabeth. THIS is Prince Phillip. THIS is Prince Charles. THIS is Princess Diana."
Joe's snapped around toward me so fast, I swear he broke the sound barrier. Then, he just gaped at me.
I *told* him my Royals obsession was long lived.
