CJ learned the downside of his summer pool job. If a kid poops in the pool, it is shut down for 24 hours. This happened about an hour before the end of his shift today.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I had a student who was a Balasubramanian
BAH-lah-sue-BRA-man-yan? I'm actually working with an author named that and I'd like to say it right!
ita !, I'm glad the hospital is treating you better.
Strix, healing ~ma to your bionic hand! Which is better than evil hand.
Does a kidney stone count?
ALWAYS.
Today is the day before travel, so of course I am a bundle of jangly nerves. I like traveling, I hate preparing for travel.

I answer to anyone looking at a piece of paper and making K sounds.

Someone smashed one of the (thankfully not-roll-down) windows on my car last night.
While I am unpleased at the expense to repair it, I'm vaguely gleeful that they probably pretty quickly realized they'd hit a dud. Only things missing? Lighters. HAHAHAHAH! They didn't even take the change in the ashtray. Or the cigs. Dumbasses.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Both my first and last names are about the WASPiest names ever, super common, and incredibly easy to pronounce. I have had very few issues with that in my life.
sarameg, I'm so glad they didn't get anything of value! The fixing part sucks, though.
3 1/2 more days of school. I cannot wait.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My car isn't great at pronouncing things correctly. It pronounced Touhy (the street) as TAU-hee (rhymes with COW-hee). It's actually pronounced TOO-ee.
Since I installed the software update for my car, it now pronounces it T'hee, as if it were a Vulcan name.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Can't decide if that's good (she's hot!) or bad (I still don't know her!)
That made me laugh.

Booooo!
I need to take some time off this summer so I don't lose it, and I'm thinking about just random days. I wonder if I can get my boss to OK my doing it without much notice, so I can judge if it's going to be a nice day out and I'm not too busy.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My GPS unit is hilarious when it comes to pronouncing place names, especially if there's an abbreviation involved. It cracks me up every time she tells me to take the exit towards Verazzano Branch.

I really wish I could afford a trip somewhere. I was longing to go to NYC this AM.
I need to get away from work and routine and I need some inspiration. I am pretty much money in and money out lately, and can't fathom putting an entire trip on the CC.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yeah, mine doesn't do too well either. It still pronounces "Lemnos" as "VROOM".
