Hey Jeff, you forgot to mention that you met Stacy through your classmate/her son that has an unhealthy/unrequited crush on you!

and, of course, Stacy’s other six kids!

just kidding.
In fact, I did find out from an ex today that one of her 11yo twins (not mine) is into cutting after a recent spate of fights and whatnot. This, of course, after he slips out after an argument, then calls at 4:30am because he wrecked his bike and is bleeding, but he still walked the mile home! oy.

She was SO glad school started back up today!

Heh. I wish I had thought of that back when I was in school. Might have saved me from some big blowups with my dad.

There are times, though, I do feel a bit guilty when I get crazy trying to find a figure. Some folks can’t afford proper food & medicine, so it’s a good reminder of priorities. The whole, ‘appreciate what you have’ idea.

Yeah, but what if it’s an action figure that’s really, really cool or hard to come by?

Aha! Didn’t count on that, did you? Check-mate.

Have a good day.

Funny, I read it and didn’t get “there are so many worse things in the world than not finding an action figure” so much as “here’s a lame excuse for why my lousy report card doesn’t matter”.

LOL! I’ve read that a hundred times yet still crack up laughing every time I read it.

So true, Erik…action figures are a luxury that many in the world cannot even fathom.

We are the lucky ones.

Peace,

Chip
