Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Weekend:

Tonight, write letters to people I'm sending GCS ARCS to.

Tomorrow: Tickybox birthday party!

Sunday: Oh god, a road trip to Forks, because a friend has a baby cousin in town who is a Twilight fan.

We're going to try kite flying tomorrow. Hubby bought a big multi-level kite a couple of years ago, and we've never been able to take it out.

Sounds like fun, I hope you get good winds.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Kat, I think it's totally appropriate to have the school paper write about the cheating valedictorian, otherwise the take home message is consequences are only there for some students. But it occurs to me that the teacher who called you a vigilante might have felt exposed too.

Unrelatedly, my weekend is going to consist of much grading, plus some stretch class. And a princess party. Who could forget about that?

My daughter's teacher was really impressed by one of my daughter's poems. She's actually written several poems and I think a number of them are really good.

This one was about our beagle Fenris.

Time to play.

Chase Thor. Fight Thor.

Play with toy. Chase toy.

Chew on toy.

Rest.

Ask for a belly rub.

Relax.

Outside? Let's go!

Bark. Howl. Run.

What fun!

Sunbathe.

Food! Eat.Eat.

Sniff.

Inside! Get feet wiped.

Polish off plates when no one looks.

Belly rub, please?

Add some photos and that's a illustrated children's book waiting to happen.

We framed the poem alongside a picture of her hugging Fenris.

Actually that would be a terrific project for her. She has a camera and I could help her put it together on the computer.
