Spend my life at Alterra with lines of 20+ ppl for 8 hrs straight?  Sounds great!

Congrats!

I was sitting in Alterra, lurking myspace.  (suprised??)  

A grandpa aged man walked up to me and stood about two feet away and stared at me.

I thought he was going to ask me why I kept looking at him earlier, which was because I was trying to figure out if he had a lazy eye...seriously.

Instead he says:

GM: "I'd like to congratulate you on having jeans without any rips or tears or holes or anything in them."

me: "My pants?"

GM: "Yea."

me: laughs "Thanks"  (thinking: was that old dude checking out my ass?!)

more prepared

You'd think after years of living in WI, the people of Wisconsin would be a little more prepared when it came to winter/snow.

Ridiculous things I've seen this winter:

-people thinking a hooded sweatshirt is a sufficient winter coat (myself included)

-girls in heels with more than a foot of snow on the ground

-using a license plate/cd as a snow/ice scraper for your car

-wiping off only driver side portion of windshield, leaving side windows and back window covered in snow. As well as leaving at least a foot of snow on hood/roof/trunk of car.

"you shouldn't be a teacher"

today one of my students told me i shouldn't be a teacher.

she said i'm not a "people person"

she may have been reacting to my statement earlier when i told her 

"if she wants to keep talking she can go to the office and talk to the administrators the rest of the hour"

maybe.....

then she came up to me after class and apologized for talking and being mean.

reason #12 i will never eat meat

i was trying to think of things i'm sure of in life.

and i came up with a small list of people i'm sure i'll always love.

but really the only thing i can be sure of in life is that i will never eat meat.  and this is reason #12 i'll never eat meat again the rest of my life.  i'll never have a tape worm.
