BTW for Barb and GG- Lake Ella was flooded almost to Meridian!
Doooooooooooooooood.
I'm seriously boggled.
Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
"Thanks to Fay, we are wet!!"
Okay, everyone in the thread change tags before the next time she logs in.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I have never, NEVER been treated so rudely as this class. And there are some good kids in there, but seriously? THis class made me want to walk out of the building and never go back. I am still furious. What parent raises their children to think that this is appropriate?
Oh, Erin, I am so sorry. I had a clas like that last year. I ended up kicking kids out of class repeatedly, sending them to the Dean, and letting the Dean suspend them. It's all I could do.
This year, I have already had to fuss at 1 class about non-participation and how that affects their grade. Dudes. It's a game where you introduce yourself. Say 2 fucking words. Seriously.
And, I'm doing the tough teacher bit right now to get my 6th graders in line. One girl already hates me because I made her move seats so she wouldn't talk to her friend. After I asked her to be quiet 3 time. Poor dear. I'm such a bitch.

Well, I got inspected (passed), and now have Texas license plates. They would not honor the CA handicap plates until I get "recertified" by a Texas Doctor. Thankfully my CA hanging placard doesn't expire until June of next year. I just need to remember to hang the damn thing. I went to the 3rd location to get the Drivers License taken care of, and alas, I was thwarted by not having: Social Security Card, Birth Certificate, and/or Passport handy. But, I got the form that I can fill out, and I learned I will *NOT* have to take any tests to get said license. Progress! So next week when I have a day off, I'll take care of that. Now I gotta find a screwdriver to get the old plates off and the new ones on. Wheee!
But first. Dinner. I'm starving!

Can you send them someplace else for the class time? We have this system where it's (1) verbal redirect (1) Think sheet (3) safe seat (4) buddy room.
Problem? It's all hedged in with superspecific lang., and the kids take it not seriously at all, so if you want a kids out, you get the "Have you gone through The Process?" questions.
My choices in answering
(A) I have tried to process with this student, but s/he is unamenable to participating.
(b) No, I haven't. I can't shut him up long enough to send him to the fucking safe seat,
(c) No, I have concussed the unamenable child with the safe seat, and I am going to the Buddy Room. Where I devoutly hope you keep lawyers and vodka.
(d)Fuck the fucking process; take this brat out to the woodshed; I hear there's something nasty there. I hope it's hungry and a messy eater.

I like options c & d. Preferably at the same time.

Erin, I hope the class is better for you tomorrow. Maybe hand out doses of something to calm them down. (joking)
Are you allowed to throw chalk pieces in their general direction? Not that that ever happened to me in high school bio class or anything. "Oops, it slipped out of my hand"

Me, too. Le sigh.
I need a cattle prod, and some restraints. Ooh, and some of those BDSM ball-gags. About a crate of those, actually.
