His response "But I asked security and the principal before I wore it and they all said I'd be in trouble if I didn't".

But kid, I told you NOT TO TAKE IT in the first place.

(It is hat day at school but this is a mask, not a hat).

Not sure I'll have free time, Connie, but if I do I'll let you know since I'll be in your area.

What part of Utah will you be in?

ION, I dreamed a hurricane hit the town I lived in. For some reason, Polter lived in the basement of my house. When I went to check the damages--moderate but lots of water, and I had to salvage books and papers--Sunil and his mom were in the lower floor doing the same. Sunil, is your mother shorter than you, or was I just inputting Random Indian Lady for the part?

mac's response for not correcting the homework as he was instructed while I was at choir, "But the teacher says we don't have to (Blah blah blah stuff I couldn't hear due to blood rising)"

OF COURSE my response was " BUT I told you to due it, and right now, we are not at school and I am the one who decides what gets done."

MY parents were there for that exchange and I am sure there was a bit of, OMG never thought we hear all that from her. Still, they had it easy peasy lemon squeezy with me as a student.

If things are not put into my phone/computer calendar they do not happen.

Yep. I've even started booking appointments for myself to do things. I've got "pack suitcase" on my calendar tonight, because I keep losing track of Easter. I also use lists on a daily basis. Man, I was such a failboat before I had the option to manage my life electronically.

My sister laughed at me last week when she picked up my ipad while we were getting ready for the Blackhawks game and an alert popped up that said "Dranking: 15 minutes overdue"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Right? Why I was a relatively early adopter of PDAs: I need that external brain.

ETA: That is an awesome alert.

Because books.

I'm still on pencil and paper. I love my lists, and my datebook.

Our wings are not tired.

Man, I was such a failboat before I had the option to manage my life electronically.

I used paper back in the day, but I love my pop up reminders and text and so forth. Need that.

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

I am as one with Tim, at least in this aspect: I also have a paper calendar hanging in the kitchen, but it doesn't help if I don't look at it. I would really benefit from having it all electronic, but I haven't been able to make that happen, somehow.
