Network

Hello, everyone. I've just moved to the area. I'm from California, actually, but I've never spent much time in Orange County.

And I'm starting to see why.

My name is Loras. I fence and it keeps me quite busy, though I hope this network will help me meet more people around here.

I bored. Anyone wanna entertain me?

I found this thing in a stream today.

I think I'll call him Wrex.

And here I thought babysitting my sisters kid was a royal pain in the ass. At least I'm never stuck with that one for more than a couple of hours at a time. Probably because her husband still hates my guts.

I really hope that wasn't tied to no ones dreams, because if it was, dude, I feel sorry for you.

So I watched the new season of Halloween Baking Championship premiere tonight, and other than really really not liking the dude who was talking about his pet cockroaches, the only complaint was just the first challenge having so many bugs in it. I don't think I'm going to be making any sweets for a while.

I never knew it was possible to be banned from parent teacher conferences, but I have been. Apparently the girls teacher didn’t appreciate being called an idiotic twat for failing Madison on a spelling test just because she had capitalized the first letter of each word. Well, that and telling me she didn’t understand why I was so upset that she’d mixed the girls names up since ‘they’re identical’.

First off - I’m upset because you don’t seem to understand that, while they are identical twins, they are separate individuals with distinct personalities. Which anyone with half a brain would see if they paid attention for five damn minutes while in the room with them. And you, their teacher, are trying to behave and treat them as if they’re interchangeable. Secondly - you made my daughter feel like she was stupid over some arbitrary spelling rule that you yourself admitted not having told the kids beforehand. And the final reason I’m upset with? As an educator the teacher didn’t see any problem with either of those two things. So yes I called her an idiotic twat, and I don’t regret it and absolutely would again.

I guess it’s a good thing my fiance can go to these meetings for them. Although I do hope their teacher isn’t expecting him to go any easier on her than I did if he doesn’t like how she’s treating our girls.

There’s probably no way that we can have them moved to a different class, is there? Or is this where you’re going to tell me it’s early in the year and I should give it some more time to see if it gets any better?
