.... I mean really, it isn't a red flag when someone comes in to buy a $250 gift card with a credit card? I took it to the cops who informed me that they have a pretty good idea who did it. Apparently this scumbag is wanted all over the country and his MO is, I kid you not, taking a credit card or two out of a wallet in a gym locker room (picks the locks) then goes around and charges gift card after ...
... teacher who wrote them? Well, most of us would say that if you spend hours of unpaid labor doing work to make you better at your underpaid job, you get to own what you make then. And apparently some teachers would say so too, which is why you can buy teacher-made lesson plans online. (Of course, you could always buy lesson plans somewhere, but some teachers are cutting out the middle man and ...
...." Cue laughter from everyone around me and half the TSA agents. After they took the cheese out of my bag (and ran it through the bomb component sniffer thingy), it scanned through just fine. Apparently this happens pretty regularly here, but usually people don't have cheese wheels with their headphones and mp3 player on top. I can totally see how that would look suspicious. Anyway, my anecdote ...
I was out on the playground today during recess and one of the students came over and said to another student, "Rozakis and I, we're tight." Apparently, my students and I are "tight." Clearly, that means that I'm cool.
...he sat down was "LEAFS ARE LOWEST OF THE LOW". He remarked over the cackling laughter that he wished he had some "Leafs pwn the Habs" headlines to toss over to her, and she just laughed harder. (Poor Mr. Lim. Apparently he even named his son after Curtis Joseph... Poor Mr. Lim's son.) I asked her if her goal is to make him cry by the end of the year. "Pretty much, yeah." Second reason: On the way...
... and the difference between the "feel" of those set pics and the final outcome of the scene at the Grand Canyon. Then, if he's continuing to refer to the ep 12 scene in the second comment, apparently having seen what they did with the editing of the scene while he was looping it... hmm. I'm slightly worried, because damning with faint praise is definitely Adrian's style, and I get a whiff of that...
They were doing swine flu shots and the nose spray today. Most of the 5th grade got the nose spray thing. Apparently, when you get said nose spray, you become a zombie (according to my kids, and who better to believe?) But, I was saved. I didn't get the spray, I got the shot. So, I'm clearly not a zombie.
i'm bored. bored, bored, bored. and i so don't want to have to back to work on thursday. but mainly i'm bored. and the cure for boredom? dr.who dvd's, the internet (i need to sort out iPlayer), a walk down by the canal if weather permits, and of course choooooocolate. and crisps. and lots of tea.
Last night I was watching and mocking new moon by myself to cheer myself up, but then I thought about this fanfic that I had read when I was in my twilight phase, and I was wondering if it was finished by now. I went to ff.net in search of Twilight fanfiction before I regained my composure and stopped myself. Other then that I´m thinking more about the 8 days of fanfiction. Of course there ...
Would it be so tacky to post my actual wishlist (for the nieces, because I'm just like that... I'll admit it, I like picture books!), if I were to sign up for that? (And for the record, if I do get my act together and make a wishlist, not that I'm saying anything, but if I do, I prefer used books. You get more of them that way.)
