I'd totally teach summer school if it were only 4 weeks. My program is 11 weeks, what a dud.

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.
Oh! Just saw photos from China. So upsetting. The buildings just crumbled, it must have been terrifying.
I am once again up too late, but I just got some next winter shopping done. calf length down coat for $70, 2 shirts and 2 skirts for $65 more - free shipping. YAY!
I was getting mac next year's school pants too, but the online store for them shows them $10 on the page, then $13 at checkout. um, no. I'll be calling the 800# in the morning.
btw people who may have needs to buy kids clothes - you can use code S2A58 to get 15% at The Children Place online.
ION, I will never climb Everest.

ION, I will never climb Everest.
I remember telling someone I had just read Into Thin Air (about that climb). And they were like "Wouldn't climbing Everest be so amazing?"
Um, no.
"Wouldn't climbing Everest be so amazing?"
Sure, the first five hundred times.
Now its just a way to risk peoples lives needlessly. If you want that kind of adrenaline rush go to the well with 12 year old girls dodging the Janjaweed, you know?
Quick question--is livejournal down?
It's working fine for me, ita, though I haven't tried ot post, just read.
LJ is working for me.
"Wouldn't climbing Everest be so amazing?"
If by, "amazing," you mean, "killer blizzards, pulmonary edema, oxygen deprivation, physical exhaustion, and temperatures similar to those in Antarctica," then yes, I suppose climbing Everest would indeed be "amazing."
