Peanut's class did the cereal necklace thing, too, but with Froot Loops only every 10, with Cheerios as the rest. It was something, hearing all the kids go, "Teacher, I ate my cereal!"

I actually just did a huge project using word tables. What I really hate is when people design their class in a word table and I have to put it in Blackboard, because the formatting is so screwy and when they use it for numbers, like budgets, and then use a calculator. I still like excel for tables better, but it is more about the right tool for the job.

Ah, the days of "too much candy"....candy necklaces...sharing.

Can anyone recommend some supportive indoor shoes? My feet are telling me to be barefoot less, but all the supportive shoes I have are large and clunky. I want easy to slip on and off. Don't have to be warm, particularly, but not crocs because my feet would sweat.

meara - I use these SAS sandals for my indoor shoes. They have good arch support and I can wear them year-round with socks. I do switch to lined Crocs in the worst of winter.

I used to have some Crocs flip flops that were pretty good.

My friend swears by these for her plantar pain.

My Birks give me the best support, followed by Halflinger clogs. I expect them both to last me forever, because they are the only two pair of expensive (to me) shoes that I own... except for ones that were gifted to me, that is. They did wonders for my knee issues. Wonders.

Oh, and a pair of New Balance with upgraded inserts, but I don't wear those inside; they're a surprisingly annoying pair to get on.

My dance teacher swears by Toms

Y’all, I have to tell someone about this because I cannot believe how stupid I am sometimes. We are having an issue with one of our new items fir one of my accounts and have been throwing around ideas fir how to resolve it in email. So today somebody said we should have a meeting. I get the invite for the meeting and think vaguely “I wonder why we are waiting until next week for that?” but figure it will be fine and say I’m coming. The meeting was, of course, today and I was not there. Sigh. I don’t think they needed me, actually, but what a weird mistake to make! And now I look like a total flake. And I kind of am, so I guess that shouldn’t bother me. Sigh.
