Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Well, if I did the sponsor thing, I'd make practices before school, which would be fine as our school day doesn't start until 8:30 (BRILLIANT). It's, I think, the hassle of the ordering of stuff like uniforms and the having to sit through bad high school basketball that I'm really enh on.

What you do is get a "Team Parent" to do this stuff for you.

That's how we do it in Little League, so the coaches don't have to do all the administrativa as well as run all the practices.

I'd love for that to work. But at the high school I'm at, I'm afraid it would be more like get a senior girl who wants to be on the team to run it because the parents aren't real engaged in the school.

I hope it can work out with a minimum amount of more work for you, Kat. Cause I can see how it is a good thing for the kids, but there are so many hours in your day, and you've got to watch out for you & yours.

My mom got an awesome americorps guy working for her this year and it's made her life so much better, she can do so much more. He's not planning on being a teacher (child psych) but he'd excel at it. She's trying to tease him into it.

I actually really, really like Kathy Griffiths' dress. Huh.

Her wig, not so much.

“Not dead yet!”

The dress I've been lusting after is Marcia Cross's. It's the bane of the short woman's existence, because it would swallow me whole.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is it because it's the TV show TV show that they're so frantic about ending on time? I wonder.

lori, you should know: the picture you took of me with the Rover last year? My brother is using it in his defense presentation- part of the dedication. I railed at him for not using a more recent (30lbs lighter) picture of me (ah, vanity) but he told me he was gonna claim I was gonna throw the rock at the rover and exploit his NASA ties. So I gave in.

Because books.

The chick who plays ... Betty? On Mad Men?

Loved her dress, too. And the chick who was once Saffron. A redhead in a green dress is never wrong.
