Better be careful. Some people don't like those cites because they don't like thinking about one of the major sources of aluminum in the average person's environment. You could accidentally step into a violently politicized debate without even realizing it.

That would never happen here.

What's making me happy today? Not much!

eta: I just won a war of wills with Max, so that's improved things a bit for me.

I may have my brain in the gutter today, but that sounded awfully naughty, right there.

God save me if he teaches 6 year olds or something.

Less than 60 hours and I'm back in school.

monster · 02-26-2011, 05:48 PM

Today had a shitload of potential to go horribly, horribly wrong..... and it didn't. In fact it went very, very right. But I was on the edge of my nerves the whole bloody day. And now I'm drinking beer when I shouldn't. ho hum

University, thank goodness, and regarding some of the students, I wish! Not this particular one, though.

Sundae · 03-01-2011, 12:51 PM

Had my nails painted today, my treat to myself for being a good girl.
And I go back Thursday afternoon to get a "free" airbrush (it's included in the price I paid today). I'm going to have hearts for my Queen of Hearts costume, but I didn't want to have them done today or it will lose impact.

Oh and I didn't spend any money in town today, apart from getting my nails done.
Oh. Yes I did. But only in the supermarket. And it wasn't on booze.

overheard:

A sales manager is in my office looking for a deal package, and a salesperson comes in and says, "John, there is a lady here for you, and I believe she is wasted. She's shitty drunk."

Sundae · 03-03-2011, 03:35 PM

(and some other things)

I didn't get my free airbrush.

Basically the family-run salon have both scheduled and drop-in clients.
I was advised to book. I did.
It worked fine last time, with the same guy I booked this appointment with.
When I arrived I was told "Five, ten minute."
Nope.
Thirty minutes later I just walked out.
All three technicians were still engaged in Deluxe Foot treatments and I had to get home to feed Diz. I will not go back there.

Happiness?
My session with the Tiger Cub today was observed not only by the Speech Therapist, but also with my class Teacher. Added together their qualifications probably equal twelve years in education if not more.
Me, off-the-street-no-training have managed to establish a rapport with him, and really draw him in.

No, I'm not boasting.
Anyone in this position would have the same result.
I'm just glad I'm not screwing up.
I am very well supported and I work from information gathered by professionals and his parents.
I'm just so very happy that what I am doing, in following their plans, is working in the way they hoped.

My alternative to airbrushing is below.
My hearts have a sideways slant.
Whatever, the kids are going to be more interested in their own costumes than mione!

Hebe is at last happy about her high school choice. Seems like a few of her buddies are making the same choice, so she will have friends there and she'll have no problem making friends with the swim team, I'm sure.

glatt · 03-03-2011, 07:43 PM

Good news! Its nice though to have had the "problem" of being able to choose between various good schools.
