Good teachers are astute observers of those they teach, and are really they themselves the quintessential students. It is when a teacher stops being a student that they stop being teachers. (I have teachers in my family.)

So I'll sit back and you can teach us all something. The pressure is on. Enlighten us.

firsties?

edit: Squee! Firsty dance!


Teach something? Uh. Ok. Something from each of my lifetime's professions.

Books:
1. If the author's name begins with Mc or Mac, it is properly filed at the beginning of the "M" section.
2. Never shelve the Koran below waist height. It is disrespectful.

Spa Management:
1. Never apply retinoids (vitamin A creams) during the day. Sunlight robs them of their usefulness.

Furniture:
1. "Italian leather furniture" is false advertising. Almost all of the worlds' leather furniture is made in Brazil or China, where leather prices are ridiculously low and labor cheap.

There's something I like about Mav getting firsties. But I just can't put my finger on it.

Or my hand.

Cabinet pooh was from when I was working in medical records during college. We were the lowest of the low...stuck in a basement with 7 foot high ceilings and pooh filled cabinets.


At least the pooh wasn't 7 feet high.

I don't even qualify as tan on my darkest days. Maybe I'll be the one after that...

Whoa. Good filing system.

I almost forgot with all the brain searching and all. RIGHT ON MAVS! It'll be a while 'til the edgyness goes away (think I'm having a fit right now), but its so worth it. I highly suggest replacing the smoking minutes for active minutes. I found myself doing laps during the week inside Wal Mart due to the crappy weather. Seeing the progress time after time really builds the self esteem. Helped I got into PB when I did. Aside from being sick the last time every set of games gets easier and more fun happens all the time.

Hugs for ya Mavs.

Don't tell her that. If she gets wise, she just give us the brush off.

Glad to oblige. Hey while I have your attention (who else but a feces-throwing Browncoat asks for that kind of attention), been meaning to comment on the new ink. Shiny!

Thanks, NV. I've had two big reinforcements on my "I no longer smoke" quest.
1. Support from my friends online
2. The smell of my coworker when she returned from her smoke break. She walked in the office today and I nearly gagged. I thought "Sh*t, is that what I smelled like?"
*I'm going to treat myself to some new perfume!

JQ, I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that woman and her filing cabinets...
