    False, I had evil bosses 'don't poke the bear!'

    TPBM likes to throw paper clips at the person dozing off in meetings
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    False.

    TPBM was giving a presentation earlier today and for the first time in three years of giving this presentation every month, saw one of the new employees pull out a smartphone and start typing. So TPBM stopped talking, walked over to where the new employee was sitting, and said in a pleasant tone loud enough for everyone to hear, "Are you texting me?" And the new employee hurredly put the phone back in their pocket and said, "Sorry, sorry."

  • Sounds like you would make a good teacher...only our students are aloud to have phones, just every other distraction in the world.

    tpbm likes being the center of attention.

    not really, even though my astrological sign says that I do....

    TPBM is the 'favorite teacher' at school....

  • Well, for all the wrong reasons. I have two guinea pigs and an aquarium. In the spring we hatch chicken eggs and the kids get to take home a chicken if they have permission. You get the picture...

    tpbm remembers school being rather boring.

    well, mostly...now that I know the kids don't get recess, I'm glad that I got recess. (In 6th grade we studied rats and I couldn't take home a rat :cry: )

    TPBM likes fresh eggs for breakfast....(well, only if they are un-fertilized)

  • no recess? That is terrible...we still get recess. Thank bejesus.

    Yes, I do like fresh eggs.

    tpbm likes eggs over easy.

    yes, actually I do

    yeah, they axed recess because it 'took up too much valuable teaching time' ...ok those people should try to teach a group of 30 antsy elementary kids ALL day with only a lunch break! :lol:

    TPBM hardly buys produce at the store because she grows her own

  • not lately. No time for a garden :( though in the past I have gardened. I do by locally from a farmers market.

    tpbm really likes fresh okra from the garden in the summer.

    TPBM likes wild mountain blueberries

  • Are they the same as store bought blueberries? I am sure not. :? Blueberries don't grow wild in these parts.

    tpbm will tell me what vegetable is their favorite from the garden.

    oh...darn! Mountain blueberries are smaller and a little tarter than the ones in the store...almost like huckleberries

    I like all the veggies...prob cucumber is my favorite

    TPBM is gonna tell me their favorite fresh veggie....

    False, I had both tonight.

    TPBM will tell me why Smarchee has a sudden aversion to beer and chicken wings.

    Smarchee possibly had a bad experience that involves sitting on the throne all night?

    TPBM will find out the truth

    tpbm knows they should be getting ready for bed but then again also knows it will be some time know before their head actually hits the pillow.

    TPBM will fight the sleepy urge because they are consumed by the board at the moment

  • so true, always get sucked in and once I am here I never get anything else accomplished until my grouchy husband starts in. If you know what I mean...

    tpbm has a significant other that has an equal obsession of pj.
