Ok folks, so today I have an interview for a part time weekend gig as a barista in a cafe for mammas and their toddlers. Mamma in law (who is the Sweetie of the Year) is driving me there. My best friend told me this would be hell for me due to my apparently barren condition, but we'll see how it goes. I think he might be right though .... seeing mommies with their babes might be too much; but I'll give it a shot. Extra $$$$$ is needed and apparently I'm too old to hook anymore

Wish me luck amigos, and I'll come report later today!!!

Bonne chance, amiga! I predict that it will be hell working in a place for mommies and babies. But in a I-can't-stand-to-hear-another-kid-screaming type way as opposed to I-wish-I-was-one-of-those-moms-listening-to-my-very-own-screaming-kid-but-I've-got-to-take-it-home-with-me type way.

You go chica!!!! ¡Buena suerte! When dealing with kids it's frequently not their fault, de tal palo, tal astilla.

As for Lady Heather:

Wherever there's high school freshman looking to be riden like a farm animal, she'll be there...Wherever there's a student who needs discipline to concentrate on his studies in sex ed, she'll be there...And when ignorance makes grown men forget to fear the power of their wives, she'll be there too.

Hubby and I are meeting a friend from Canada at Foxwood Casino today!! YIPEE!! She's going to gamble, we're going to eat!

I realize I'm not Canadian, and my SO is German (but they like to drink too!) but it's much calmer here than OT, and I don't speak German fluently enough to fully understand the German thread.

May I play here occasionally? I'm tired of people being pissy to me in OT for having an opinion

But of course you can, Jun!!

See, how can anyone say the Canadian forum is hostile to outsiders?

I wanna be an honorary Canadian too. Yesterday a girl from Vancouver told me that she considers basically Canadian, since I have a similar accent and grew up with Canadian TV in Minneapolis. "You're so close anyway," she said.

You are most welcome to be here Alex. Now let me think....somewhere one of us has the Honourary Canadian thingie. Charles has it and so does a few others. I myself am an honourary Canuck too!

I agree! Anyone who gets Canadian TV is Canadian! Hurray for Canadian TV!

Trailmix, I love the individualized honourary Canuck badge with the CBC logo. You're hilarious.

I'm not sure I understand it myself, Alex. I find the Canadian Forum people so nice and a lot of fun. My personal feeling is that some people in this life are unhappy and naturally defensive, and that colours their thinking when they read posts. The other unfortunate thing is that this media of communication has its drawbacks. There isn't the auditory tone of voice, facial expressions, and body language available to convey the subtle nuances which assist in understanding meaning as there is in person. So those who are quick to judge will do so without questioning whether they are transferring their own state of mind, mood, or mental outlook into their interpretation of what's being said.

Phew. Okay. I SO didn't mean to write all that. For those who didn't get to church to hear a sermon today.... so ends today's lesson. Go in peace. *makes sign of cross*

Thank you! What an honour!
