'War Stories'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I don't think I had any idea how big it had become, or how much girls her age liked it. It felt to me like it opened in our local mall and closed only two years later (and it's already been closed for two or more years), so it's not exactly an age-old institution.
Then again, Sara referred to something that happened in 2018 as "a long time ago" just now, so...perspective.
It is surely my fault since I never shopped there.
I did work and then I stopped to eat and now I'm supposed to work again?

It's something the human body was not designed to do.

UNACCEPTABLE.
I have a cold and my brain is too congested to focus properly. Bleargh.
Had my first day of Spanish class! The lady was like "per the test you took you're somewhere between these four levels" and put me in the lowest one. Not sure that's right based on the other folks in the class—it's not that I'm learning this for the first time, just being reminded/repeating it? But oh well.
How long are you there for, meara? I thought this was a tour-type trip, but is this one with a residency for a while?! If so, cool!
The Big Bus still makes me a bit nervous. I set my phone alarm so that I wouldn't miss going back in for a scheduled trip, and when it went off, I immediately thought it was something Going Wrong with the bus itself.
(Note that it has a LOUD backup beeping, which is nervous-making in itself.)
Theo, I was on a tour the first week and now I have two weeks where I'm on my own and signed up for classes
Neat! I wish I could do something like that, but I'd probably need at least a month before I'd really start to retain enough. I keep plugging away with Duolingo Spanish so at least I can say I recognize words.
There's a tour group bus that I see driving around Boston that I'm quite envious of -- Don Quixote Tours, which give Spanish tours of Boston. I'd give my eye teeth to be able to talk about local history in a foreign language.
Timelies all!
Sigh...today was not a great day for Mr. S. There was no PEP, because the county schools were closed, but his preschool was open. We had the aide take him to school and stay with him, but he acted up and she had to take him out of school. Tomorrow there is PEP, so hopefully the familiar routine will help.
