mac has a failing grade on a class assignment for basically not writing full sentence when the assignment was to write sentences using vocabulary words. So I have been sitting here feeding him the definitions of various science vocabulary words, making them into sentences. I just got the completed paper to check spelling and HEADDESK. He wrote 1 or two as sentences, the rest he just wrote out a definition and not a complete sentence. same damn thing he did at school. So now we start over. Also he does not capitalize consistently. And weird mis-spellings: oceon for ocean, were for where, couses for causes. He wrote 2 for two...in a sentence in schoolwork! I do not get it.

I'd say you have a tomato allergy like I do.
That exists??!!?? I had a good reason for kicking up a fuss over raw tomatoes, other than just being "difficult"???
"But you can eat tomato sauce! You're just being difficult!"
Wanting to resurrect your mother in order to yell "I told you so!" is not a helpful reaction, is it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
What I need now is a safety. Not holding my breath.
How frustrating, msbelle!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Plenty of my students write 2 for to. At least 2 for two is the correct usage.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Oh, mac. What's the deal?
I'm watching the Superb Owl, mostly for the commercials. My sister is rooting for Tom Brady, therefore I'm rooting for the Seahawks. I don't even understand what's going on. (Please don't explain it. I don't care.)

That domestic violence commercial was powerful.

Why do I have to share?
OK. Just share them with me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
