(But what job? I didn't read anything about a job?) I thought she was complaining about boys and in my humble opinion, girls should ALWAYS complain about boys. That's the first rules of being a girl. Can I hear an AMEN from the choir? <BR/><BR/>hee hee. That should pull Eric out of the closet. He's such a masculinist. Did you guys know he can pump like 300 lbs. Or press, or whatever those guys at the gym call it. <BR/><BR/>So the back story is, my student started a blog. I tried to talk her out of it because I like to teach my students to do what I say and not what I do.

I enjoy your creativity, humor, and philosophy. I just had to comment on the other blog because I want that lovely girl to think that it's okay to go after what you want, even if it leads to rejection. I felt sad that she wanted the job, but didn't want to apply for the position. Of course when I reread it, it comes across tactless.

My son is about function more than presentation (as the true son of an engineer) so his display boards are usually the most thrown-together-looking ones in the room.

I'm sure Swirl will start visiting each of your blogs and telling you that I'm not really that beautiful in real life. ;) (Love YOU, Swirl, even though you're Kuter and Kraftier) <BR/><BR/>But SUDDENLY I remembered something the stupid smart girl said in one of her posts about annoying girls who can't take a compliment. <BR/><BR/>Sooooooooooo, just in case stupid smart girl is reading this, I'm going to say THANK YOU! THANK YOU ALL FOR THE SWEET COMPLIMENTS! THOSE WORDS WARM MY HEART, (except for the hating and crying and puking parts). <BR/><BR/>And some of you still don't seem to know what the gift is. I thought for sure I totally gave it away. It's already been said a few times. <BR/><BR/>I like the bobble head idea.
