Rumors and other stuff

You know it's not about the entertainment when your son takes a girl to see a movie at the Levee and they decide when they get there that they don't want to see a movie, so they walk around for an hour deciding what to do and they end up walking across the Purple People Bridge and into the ballgame.

I just wish that the oldest one would end up doing something like that. If he'd take notice of Michelle...but alas. As I've said before, Poor Dumb Baby. =)

School rumors and possible verification for the week of May 17:

1) Carrie H. wants one of the counseling positions. Duh. That's a given. Will she get it? Not if Tony H. and some of the rest of us have anything to do with it--and I possibly do now, dependent upon when they decide to post and hire.

2) Karen D. wants one of the counseling positions. Considering she spent yesterday afternoon in the library listening to the two male administrators discussing antifreeze with the (cough,cough) school resource officer and the soon-to-be-leaving-hallelujah health teacher when they all should have been patrolling halls and working other areas as she policed 5 nasty little girls, I would say that's pretty astute. Another clue is that she came over to me and asked me if I ever learned anything from those discussions and then she actually made a comment like, "What about patrolling the halls, etc.?" For Karen, that's unheard of.

3) Mrs. Reid has lost her mind. No need for discussion there, really, but this time of year always makes me a lunatic--as if none of the others do.

4) Tony D. wants Karen's position should she leave it. OK, I admit I'm kind of the source for this one, but I believe I'm accurate in thinking it. And I haven't actually spread it around as a rumor. I've just said, "Wonder if..." a few times.

5) O.W. has lost at least 75 lbs. This one is true. Saw him yesterday. He looks great. His clothes are hanging from his body. That's a good sign.

6) Carver is looking. We can only hope.
