That was classic. So good. <BR/><BR/>Also, in other Meg is a Dork news, when I read your sentence "A home is not a home without a CAT", I immediately thought of forklifts and construction vehicles. The thought of it actually being about a cat didn't even cross my mind.<BR/><BR/>In unrelated but weird news, I ran into schmuckie at Bushwakker's tonight, and we actually had a pleasant conversation. However, he was apparently drunk and high on paint fumes (from painting his girlfriend's apartment), so it's not exactly like I dazzled him with my wits. Sadly, he told me that Lyn had been in the hospital this past week because of problems with her oxygen, but she's home now. I told him to send her our regards.<BR/><BR/>Finally, in more unrelated news, I have "Paperback Writer" playing in my head. It's been there for a few days. Please make it stop. Please?<BR/><BR/>Love you! Miss you! I should have just written this in an email and not wasted so much space on your blog. Oh well.

I loved TAs, and was thrilled to become one. (I'm such a nerd.)<BR/><BR/>And I know that I don't need to sacrifice my professionalism, and I really don't, but I just feel so awkward and unaware of how to behave at times, when I get in front of a crowd. Sometimes I'm okay, and I'm really driven and excited, but then I'm also likely to say something I'll regret later. Okay, usually I regret most of what I say later.
