Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Panera for lunch.
In my head I think I would be fine to retire now, but I realize that in reality, without some structure from an outside source, my days become wasted days and depression begins, I would really like 1 week off a month - that I would love.
Oh and of course money-wise I could not retire now.

Because books.
Holli, I'm SW of Philly. But I could pay for shipping.

I need to send Holli pictures of several Vintage items of clothing. I have several pairs of gloves and some hats too that need to find new homes.

Holli, where in DC is your shop?
Down the street from me!

Punishingly Intricate
I am thinking of sending an email to all student about the missing item, detailing the amount of money it is, and hopefully flushing out Student A to actually tell me what is going on, and not Student B.
That sounds like a good plan.

Really, Sparky? I didn't realize!

Fuck. One of the kids in Matilda's class has a pinworm infection.
(If you don't know what it is don't look it up because it's gross.)

Really, Sparky? I didn't realize!
Yes. Walk about 1/2 mile towards the co-op . . .

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
What sort of condition are they in?
Holli, they are intact, but have some stains, from being so old and kept in a trunk for so long. I think we have some women's underthings and some of my great-uncle John Martin's clothes and shoes. He was a snappy dresser. He went to Florida and ended up managing a swanky hotel and hobnobbing with celebrities. He never married and we're pretty sure he was gay.
I work there Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 11-2.

Oh, vintage jewelry too? I have that. *sigh*

This is me. I had to adjust to working at home, because that built-in structure wasn't there. But instead of not working enough, I tend to just keep on working until it gets dark and then I think whoops, where did the whole day go?!
Sophia, what a crappy situation. Hopefully Student B will have a guilt attack and return the costume as sneakily as he took it, so no confrontation will be necessary. He might, if he realizes he's not as sneaky as he thought.
