Today, it's sports day at my school. Everybody is outside listening to announcements and other ceremonial stuff.

I am alone in the English office. I love being alone, away from any sign of life. I love to not take part in anything that involves human interaction (apart from various forums).

So glad, to be away from people who openly disrespect you, whenever you're with them.

Do you feel the same? Laughing

I dunno... Wario would probably be outside with all FOUR lacrosse sticks he took with him trying to get some kids to play catch.

Me? I have my puppy-wuppies keep me company all day and only do what I want with my time. Wink

I can top that. I just discovered a Tandorri restaurant walking distance from my school. I really hope they don't use that ghastly honey mustard.
I hope to check it out soon.

I spent the morning watching my kids do their synchronised dance with their classes. My son came in third in the race...not bad considering he's the smallest. I had fun chit chatting with the mothers and and drinking strawberry juice. My students always put me in a good mood. Now I have some time to prep for next week and then maybe I'll have lunch with my family (husband has the day off too) or maybe I'll eat with the teachers. The parents are buying the teachers lunch so should be good.

Genius... pure genius! Rolling Eyes

i love it when they do that work-out routine to the grunting sound song. the kids all look so annoyed and tired, just going through the motions, waiting for it to end.
i blew the whistle and raised the flag to start the grade 5 races. it was nice to get outside. no complaints here.

Look closely at the OP's description, I believe Wario is her child.

Cruise - We don't always get what we wish for (thankfully). Laughing

Thank you AussieGav, it's nice to be appreciated. Cool

Then why are you here?

Considering you don't respect or even like your co-workers did you really expect to be treated better than you are?

Yes, Wario is my 23 year old child. And Zant's mission is to kick his ass, for me. Twisted Evil

Look for the lax sticks, Zanto, the lax sticks. Wink

I know this sounds patronizing, but as a newbie you seem to have difficulty understanding the written word. Read all of my posts, and you'll see I am civil with everybody I meet.

I also respect people who respect me. If I am courteous to others and such civility is not reciprocated, then I don't respect or like such people. They deserve contempt. Would you like to be a doormat?

I am here to earn a living and enjoy the forthcoming hot weather. I like a free apartment and the absence of violent crime.

Why are you here?!! Laughing
