stuff that you don't know, that you should know

1) first, and completely off topic, grown women should absolutely not wear pigtails. particularly not women over 55. are we clear on that?

2) would you rather
be dating someone who insists that every electric device in both of your homes be controlled by those 'clap on, clap off' devices
-OR-
that every piece of furniture have plastic covers?

that's easy. having clappers everywhere would be AWESOME.

3) grading 2000+ english papers, even with a ton of people helping, takes a long time. i mean, a really freakin' long time.

4) it was totally worth it to get up up at 6.30 in order to not have to watch w today. plus i made about 6 times as much as i would have if i stayed home.

5. dg is completely freaked out ('lalalalala, i can't hear you!') by conversations revolving around pumping breastmilk. :D

6. high school english departments are politic-y and goissip-y and fantastical.

7. free bagels! fruit salad! brownies!

8. how is it possible that it's cooled down 30 degrees in 5 days?

9. miss p is doing SO well at school. i'm terribly thrilled to be working in the classroom on friday.

10.where the fuck is the melanger?

11. the kettlebell is working. after only a week and a half my pants are already fitting better. yeah. seriously.

12. if d and i had children ('dear GOD woman, don't talk that way!') we'd be mr. and mrs. bigbuttserson and the bigbuttserson clan. heather w? danielle i w? ya'll feelin' me?
