No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Because books.

It's such an apt visual metaphor for parenting.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That was funny as shit! Poor kittymama.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, Theresa. Sorry so sucky!

I feel like the Facebook privacy shit should bother me more than it does.

Me too! Similarly, I still bank with Citi, even though they are evil.

Amy - I'm not a high school teacher but, as the mother of the child who set the school record for the number of days spent in in-school suspension, I know that at our suburban high school of 3,000 students, skipping school always meant in-school suspension - 1 day for each missed class, five days if you skipped an entire day - even for the first offense.
