At some point I should turn this first post into a proper introduction of me but heck, you guys already know me. I initially wanted to have this just be the details on my pending trip to Scotland... which turned out quite lovely...
Feel free to post what ya' like... Here's the rest of my original post.
[I didn't quite feel right about posting this in Events and Gatherings since it will almost certainly degrade into conversations, insults, and probably me posting things like "Bluecat, where were you?! I waited for three hours?!?!" Also, it's a little cocky to represent myself as an Event.]
YES!!! It's TRUE all you beautiful people! I'll be in the UK this summer for TWO MONTHS! Start boiling the tea! Prepare your arms for BIG HUGS! Practice saying "I can't believe this guy has been spinning poi for three years and he still sucks that badly" in less offensive ways! (You guys didn't do so good last year.) And BY GOD hide all of the beautiful women!!!
...
NYC is COMING to TOWN!
Arriving in London:
Monday June 29th at 755AM on Flight 112
Driving to Edinburgh:
July 1st-???
Heading back to London:
???Maybe July 21-July 25???.
EJC in France:
July 25-August 1
BACK up to Edinburgh:
August 1 - August 21?
Back to London:
Aug 21? - Aug 25th
Home To New York City:
August 25th
Everything with a question mark is up for discussion and is greatly influenced by YOU!

I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.

Today I learned that you can tell exactly what a kid will be like in 30 seconds. It's only the 2nd week and I could already enter their grades in the computer for the end if the year if I wanted to.
And welcome to your new life Pounce. I know you've worked hard to get there.

Anyway, high school NYC? You're practically old enough to be my teacher as of... last year?
Yeah, but Chicago sucks, and is a horrible name too. Good thing you're from NYC which has a cool shorthand name unlike "Chi-town" which is just as long or longer than "chicago"...

Yeah, I've been teaching 18 year olds since I was 21.
My first day of school ever a cheerleader in the first row asked me how old I was, when I said 21 she replied "Oh cool, you're 3 years younger than my boyfriend!"
Yikes.

Wahh. I'm cranky. And if you can't bitch to your intro thread, who can you bitch to?
My readjustment to my beloved New York City has been rougher than I expected. I guess being gone for two months really killed any momentum I had here. Gotta start paddling from scratch again.
You ever have that time when you realize that you really only have very few freinds you actually like and then a whole bunch of people you really WISHED you liked more but just can't seem to?
And since the people you really like live in different parts of the planet the luckiest you'll ever get is to see ONE of them at a time.
Bah... It's past my bedtime and I clearly need a bottle and to be put into my crib.
Miss you guys Edinburgh. Miss you guys London. Miss you Molly.
