Morning, Jimi.

How come our whole world is so quiet this week? Seems like hours between every post.

Morning all:)

Jonny now be nice...he meant that teasingly Rugbug( which I'm sure you knew, but after the recent ickiness I felt compelled to point out)

Ok I realized I forgot to put up my salad

1-spinach or dark greens
2- tomatos
3-hearts of palm
4-artichoke hearts
5-pickled beets
6- cucumber
7- mushrooms
8- garbanzo beans
9- blue cheese crumbles
10- fresh shrimp or grilled steak/chicken
11- balsamic vinegar dressing

Ok well the field trip yesterday was fine ( actually got a decent tour of the college and all) and then we took the kids to a beach at a reservoir ( all I could think was OMG not this anything but more sand in my shoes and sunburn)

Hmm yeah I'm with you on the don't touch my hair. Mine's sort of silky and I've actually had kids "pet it" which caused me to step back and remind them of personl space, but secretly I wanted to yell" what kind of freak are you petting a teachers hair??"

A teacher's pet-ter, of course...

Heh...they call me arrogant, too. Some other names that I probably shouldn't post here.

Good debate is about give and take. No side is completely right and nor are they completely wrong. If you can't concede to the 'right' points of the opposition, why even discuss anything?

Chatzy has been weird on me the past few weeks. I am the moderator for the 76th Chatzy, though I cannot get in to either it or Haven with my preferred name, SFC Alexander. It tells me that the name is reserved, and if I am that person, to log in. I click log in, but there is no obvious way to do so. Meh. Haven't had a lot of time to visit everyone in there recently anyhow...

I like playing with hair, but only when it is invited and/or desired. Myself, I haven't had enough to really play with in a long time, though it doesn't bother me too much if someone touches it. If they want to risk geting nargle bites, that's their own choice.

I wouldn't mind if I had any hair. You growin' yours out yet? I've started to (want some for D*C) but I could probably get by with one more cut before then.

Speaking of Nargles, did anyone else here about this guy? (MsQ brings it to my attention whilst retching; thanks baby...)
