I'm beginning to think I do.

Today, at Webster Schroeder High School, I was stopped on the way out of the parking lot, the attendant gave me a hard time, because she thought I was a SENIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL.  I had to show her my license to prove to her that, in fact, I am a TEACHER at the school, and I am TWENTY FOUR years of age.  I know its only a ( Read more... )

At some point, we should head out for coffee (in a platonic straight guy way...) or when I move into my new place, you (and guy if he's in the area) should come to the housewarming.

I'm free sporadically, due to my four jobs (I'll be available more often in two weeks, when school lets out)

I'll be free tomorrow night, Thursday night, Friday night, and Monday night of next week. Its been a while since I've been to Starry Nights on the corner of University and Atlantic.

I'm moving to Park Ave July 1, the housewarming party should follow shortly. I found your AIM screen name on your profile-- I'll drop you a line there to say hi =)

Don't feel so bad--when I was observing at Irondequoit HS, the lunch lady would charge me for student lunches every day. I thought it was hilarous, given I was 27... but I wasn't about to say anything.

I get that from people on the phone-- I guess my voice sounds young. After all I've been through to get where I am, it's quite irritating to hear "Can I talk to a pharmacist?" (spoken in the tone of "Honey, can I talk to your mother?")
