esp. middle and high, since the schools in KC proper are...bad. Yes, I have applied for KCMO, but it is still, after what, 40 years? still a clusterfucked mess.
I used to pay more attention when I actually lived and worked in KCMO. I just remember lots of nasty politics and the superintendent revolving door.
I wouldn't be surprised, esp. as I see more people moving out to close suburbs as their kids get to be school age
I'm pure suburban, I live, work, and shop south of 435.
Does Goodwin's Law apply to earworms?
My only problem is that, after I moved up here so I'm only five miles from work, I don't really have an excuse for not coming into the office, even in the worst of weather!
I like going into the office. There are fewer distractions, I have better equipment, and if I need to talk to someone I can just walk over the physically talk to them. There are some technical network annoyances when working from home as well.
Oh, it is still pure evol.
As is the stupid GOAT song running through my head now!!
THANKS, DANA.
I was listening to my CD from the movie Once on the way into work this morning, so I'm currently earwormed with the song The Girl sings after getting her batteries at the corner store.
If you want me
Satisfy me
I work better from home, but the other people in the office work better if I am there.
Don't Worry, Be Happy, dooooo dood dododooo . . .
I'm sticking with Boom-De-Yada. All other earworms must
leave me ALONE.
If worst comes to worst, I can defeat any other earworm with "Rocky Top," but I think you have to be a lifetime SEC football fan for that one to work.
Just got an email from my post-college roommate, who was also one of my bridesmaids, telling me she and her husband are pregnant with twins, due in January. They've been married since 1996, and these are their first kids, so that'll be an adjustment!

Or just a Dolly Parton fan. Then again, I have ABBA more readily at my disposal to counteract most earworms. There's not much that can survive being hit with "Dancing Queen," "Knowing Me, Knowing You," and "Take a Chance on Me" in quick succession.
My friend told me that the way to get an earworm out of your head is to do math. I think I'd rather have the earworm.
