Er, what was happening there? No, don't. Never mind.

Edit: Lookie what I just bought ya MsG! For your choice of uses: bad parents that don't take responsibility or evil administrators that lose important papers!

I bet she'd tell you Jonny LOL

Anyone ever wonder why people have kids they have no intention of caring for? 'Cause birth control is cheap and readily available so if you didn't want them, why did you have them? Sorry long day and just had a parent say her kid was a success because he's not been sent to jail.

JQ, do you really want to know? OK, I know the answer to that.

MsG, I've often felt that there should be requirements for being a parent. It drives me crazy sometimes.

Ooops, I gotta go. I need to work with my students.

Beats me on the parent thing, MSG.

I'm just about to teach a three hour class and my hands have decided that now is the *perfect* time to explode into a rash. I don't even know what brought it on. They're all red and cracked and even bleeding a bit on one side. Ew!

Perfect. Just perfect. Would it look weird if I wore gloves to class?

Wear the gloves (thin ones) and tell them that you are having trouble keeping your hands warm.

Does it have anything to do with your sig avatar?
Otherwise, "I really can't know that."

Oooh... pretty...

No dice on the gloves. It's freezing here, so I only have thick fleece ones. *sigh* At least my hands seem to be getting better.

And she probably wonders why her kid is always getting suspended. Can you say "lack of parenting?" I knew you could. How parents think their kids don't know exactly how disinterested in them they are is beyond me. And that they think it's not going to effect the kids in the short and long run is even more beyond me.

If you don't want kids, don't have them. If you didn't realize what it meant to be a parent and now it's too late? Seek help. But don't think that your fed up behaviour isn't shaping the adults they are going to become.

Phew...end rant. Howdy everyone!
