I wonder if any Amish families would ever go on family feud. I randomly thought of that when I flipped on family feud last night. HHmm.
ExH grew up Amish. I feel confident that none of his family would actually go on the show, but at almost every family reunion we went to they played a version of this.
State testing continues today, and since I'm not scheduled to proctor I'm just hanging out in the department office to grade and whatnot. It would be heavenly except that a colleague who is in deep BEC territory with me is also here and keeps singing the Mr Rogers theme song. KILL.
^o) Depending on my mood, I might very well say, "could you please stop doing that?" God, why are people so fucking annoying?
Do you have earbuds you can put in immediately after giving coworker a death stare?

So many questions. We surveyed one hundred Amish lassies, what is the one item the English buy the most of?
I had a new kind of xrays at the dentist yesterday that I don't remember ever getting before (of the front teeth) and the hygienist noted that I have a something-something that made it difficult to get the sensor in. She was referring to the fact that the roof of my mouth has, like, a hill on it. I don't know how to explain it and I can't remember what she called it, but she said it's a genetic thing. And now my mind is blown that not everyone's palate is shaped the same. I know bodies are different, blah, blah, blah, but still. After googling it sounds like maybe it's a "torus"?

ETA: OMFG don't just google "torus palate" though because holy fuck some of those images are terrifying and not at all what my mouth is like.
Haha. Tori are pretty common in India. I don't have a palate torus but I two tiny lingual ones that almost seem normal but I know they are not. They are just abnormal enough to hurt during x rays.

Yeah it's called a torus, they're totally normal to have or not to have. Some are huge and some are tiny. I saw one that was penis-shaped once, that was fun.

Mine just seems really symmetrical and like it's totally supposed to be there. It never occurred to me that some people's mouths are just all concave.
I really need to stop fb creeping when I'm buzzed. LOL. I always start to panic when I think about "omg what if I accidentally "liked" something?! What if I accidentally sent a friend request?!"
And people are weird. I was at the store with the kids and someone asked to take a picture of Ilya on my back. I was so shocked, so I was like uh sure?... then she took the pic, said a quick thanks, and walked away.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The steps of the nations nation's capital were the sight of an unusual
ceremony today as Secretary of State Horatio Lanier addressed the imminent eminent new members
of the diplomatic core.
"Its It's a pleasure to welcome you," said Lanier, a former U.S. Senator from Jacksonville, North
Carolina.
Despite the vary cold whether, which didn't seam seem to phase them, the dignitaries gave free
reign rein to their applause.
Between thirty to and forty diplomats listened with ?in? rapped wrapt attention, standing stationery stationary like
gripped in a vice, under the watchful eyes of the Secret Service, their there to guard them. Hardly never Never at a loss for words, but and looking a bit pail pale, Laneir said he hoped his listeners had become
use used to the bitter cold, the worst the city had scene seen in years.
The Secretary then told the tail tale of a racetrack better bettor who lost all his money and, out of shear
sheer hunger, had commited committed a minor theft, steeling a stealing an apple from a street vender vendor. On advise advice of
council counsel the man waved waived a jury trial and through threw himself on the mercy of the court Court. The juge
judge denied bale bail, meeted meted out a sentence of thirty days in jail, and leveed levied a fine of one hundred dollars.
"The man took his punishment pretty good well ," said Lanier, "but it was a hard way to learn a
lessen lesson we all can prophet profit from: As we sew sow, so shall we reap, whether we are individuals or
nation's nations. Let us not seak seek vengeance, Instead, let us saver savor the blessings of piece peace!"
Only grammar/spelling? Because there were some stylistic things I might change, too (I did change a couple. Hardly never? No. Cannot be.) ETA: OMG I can't believe how many I missed!

Oh jeez. I just called a VP back at a company who wants to make a corporate donation to us and somehow he answered his phone while he was already on a call (probably on a different phone). He was talking about layoffs and some other company's CEO and blah blah blah private stuff. So I hung up. Now I have to figure out how long to wait to call back.
One more since I'm apparently feeling chatty, lol.
The kids are watching toy unboxing videos on youtube and I'm too tired to even care. These videos are weird as fuck. Like, we are literally sitting in a room full of toys, and they'd rather watch some grown ass woman open up a box of paints and give her toys a bath.
I woke up to my period and the worst cramps ever. Also my eyes are practically swollen shut from crying so much yesterday. It's gonna be a long day. I may need to stuff my feeling into a Chipotle burrito bowl.

My grammar course for my journalism minor was my lowest grade since I was 13. He had a list of "deadly sins" that if you missed one once it was an automatic fail (like missing a misspelling of a last name). It was all so subtly hidden. I hated it lol.
I feel like I could do fine on that one, but I get a little overwhelmed with things like when to use "that" or "which."

We had one candidate who was otherwise awesome who totally freaked out and made up two new words.

Lol! My desperate attempt would be to try to totally rephrase to avoid words I'm unsure about but pretty sure I wouldn't try and invent any new vocabulary.
The thing almost everyone misses is that on third reference, the senator's (lower case if not in a title) name is misspelled and that he is referred to as "secretary."
I had a 2+ hour meeting with the clinical director on Tuesday. And have a meeting scheduled with her next Tuesday, that will be just her and D.
I'm not sure what impression I left on her. I know people don't generally like me, so I kind of wish it wasn't me in the driver seat on all of this stuff.
I'm crossing my fingers that all the important pieces of this IEE come together, with only three weeks of school left, I am anxious.
I've been super tired lately and feeling kind of overwhelmed.
My in-laws are coming to visit today and staying through Memorial Day. I really need to relax, but that's not going to happen.
