    Also, and I'm sure I'm not telling genuinegirly anything she doesn't already know, but you have to be careful with infants around loud theaters and/or that exceptionally loud organ, unless they have hearing protection. Unfortunately too many very young patients at my wife's office are tested for (and found to have) hearing damage from being exposed as an infant. The threshold of "dangerously loud" is significantly lower at that age. What may seem only a bit loud to an adult can induce permanent damage to a baby. My wife says it is surprising the number of patients' parents who didn't know this.

    Spent all day performing various injections into smelly latex faux-flesh. Being checked-off on those in two weeks and I'm all like, 'pish, no problem.'

    Now I will change into something nicer and go out for a cocktail with a nice young man. Whom I won't be having sex with later. I swear.

    We know you swear but many of us question you when you state you're not getting laid.

    Seriously, Shirley, go enjoy a cocktail and maybe you'll change your mind. I know alcohol has always assisted my ability to decide whether or not to "put out." Well, alcohol and prison showers with "The Jazz and Baraka Guru." Hmm, that second example might have been a black out brought on by massive amounts of alcohol. I can't remember it's all kind of a haze.

    I have not stated that I am not getting laid in a long while, Tully. I am getting laid, chronic-like. I love typing that. :p

    My day was just made about an hour ago. Our student support guy came in and ripped one of my kids for not showing up for a detention I had assigned. The kid tried to play the "woe is me" card after the SS guy was gone, and I told him, "Tough. The period before you missed detention you were trying to talk me out of it, so you knew you had one. I'm DELIGHTED you have two." "Ms. J, you're SO CRUEL!" "Yes, yes I am, thank you for noticing."

    God, I love teaching middle school.

    Doing some quick cleaning before a couple of friends come over to play Munchkin. I've never played it. I've wanted to play it for a long time now.

    Now that I've found out there is a Conan version.... Man...

    You love that fact children find you cruel and there's someone you refer to as SS in this post? Please tell me you're not assigning "Mein Kampf"as a mandatory reading assignment.

    Might teach them to be less dramatic.

    Besides, Mein Kampf is terrible writing.

    I've never read it but if his authoring skills are anywhere near his art and painting skills I wouldn't expect much.

    BTW- figure out a way to middle school students to be less dramatic and you could retire from teaching a wealthy lady.

    Oh, I have some ideas, but they are for future action research projects and journal articles. Gotta pad that CV.
