not to the hilt, no. Saturday night hanging with hosts. Sunday evening not scheduled yet, but Monday is an early morning, and want to be fresh for the interview.
'Conviction (1)'
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.
if you want to come over Sunday, call my cell.
what time? I have an afternoon thing already planned.
I'm free any time. We have Rock Band.
you don't have to bribe me to see ya! I'll call when I'm done at D&P's. Dunno when that will be, as we haven't seen each other in 2 years.
Askye, I got the same "don't react, the bullies only do it because..." bullshit as a kid too. Which I think is SHITTY advice for a seven year old. Adults should fucking do their jobs and stop the bullies and punish them and not expect superhuman feats of maturity when small children are being TORMENTED by their peers!
I got it too. In fourth grade, one of my teachers had the brilliant idea of sitting me next to the kid that was picking on me, so that we would have to get along.
ugh WS. That's horrible.
omnis if it turns out you have free time tomorrow we'll be hanging out at my brother's place and I'm sure everyone would love to see you.
When I was out in California being Uncle Buck for my brother's kids, my 6 or 7 year old niece Laura was being teased in second grade, and the teachers all said "Oh, they propbably just like you."
I told her yes, sometimes people tease you because they like you, but other kids are just plain mean. I also told her to watch how they act at other times, and try to figure out which ones are the good kind.
I always hated the dismissive "advice" that "they probably tease you because they like you" and wasn't going to let her be misled by that line.
If I ever have kids, I'll probably make the mistake of telling them that I don't care if they get suspended for it, but they have my permission to cockpunch bullies - verbally or physically.
It wasn't until jr high that a fellow student told me I had to stand up for myself. After that it got a little bit better.
