Congrats, bt and family!
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

I just set up the password to a group site to be 48F10172A. I wonder if anybody will get the reference. I'm guessing probably not.
It's my stuff and not at all sensitive, hence the lack of concern about the posting the password.

It would be awfully hard to get, I'd be really impressed.

Dude, just because you can sponge paint, doesn't mean you should.

It is if I bring a crossbow.
I think Ann Coulter is really the Other Mother from Coraline....
That is a distinct possibility. Maybe the real mother is Daryl Hannah.
He was such a sweet little boy for his grandparents this afternoon. (On which note, it's so good having them here right now. When I got home from the hospital around 8:30, there was a home-cooked meal awaiting me.)
My first thought? "Ooh! Chineese food!"
Which makes me think I should find a Chinese man to marry and have his parents come live with us because I would never not have that reaction.

I don't at all.
I am really frustrated at my student worker right now, but I know it is because she is a senior, she is in finals, and she just does not care anymore.
Also, have any of you encountered people with a complete inability to read bad handwriting? We do a lot of data entry from handwritten forms, and almost every student I have every had doing this messes up people's names. Like "Tomeau" instead of "Torneau". But they do not do it consistantly-- the email address will be listed as "ctourneau". I am trying to entangle this right now because it has caused these students to have somehow 2 identities in our student system and they can't access the on-line portions of the classes, and we have all these high level IT people spending time figuring it out. Grrr.

Bizarrely, we were just talking on my trip about how students like my niece don't learn cursive anymore, so they often can't read it.

Huh, I didn't realize that teaching cursive wasn't pretty much universal. They start it in 3rd grade here.

Because books.
Weirdly, I volunteered in Sara's kindergarten class this morning, and one of the little girls wrote her name in cursive on her paper. Her name is Samantha, too.
In PA, my kids learned the D'Nealian method from kindergarten on, which is supposed to make cursive easier, but they don't use it here.
