But seriously, the best was when you got to make a giant rainbow dome and run around until eventually it collapsed all over you. Being an adult would suck so much less if we got recess every day to play with parachutes.

I too, loved the PE parachute. It was the one thing we did that didn't involve projectile balls slamming into my head. Parachutes were a long forgotten fragment of my childhood until my daughter started preschool and lo and behold, they did the parachute thing, with the exact same routines you describe so well. Bliss. Ha, I love this. I too, loved the PE parachute. It was the one thing we did that didn’t involve projectile balls slamming into my head.

We owned one of those parachutes. Still miss it. Though mom is a saver. If it turns out she still has the parachute I should bring it to Blogher. Would make for a totally different vibe at the People's Party. My mom was a kids music teacher. We owned one of those parachutes. Still miss it. Though mom is a saver.

I remember the good old days when they would say to each other, ‘Hey. Do you have any idea what’s going on at all?’ and, ‘No. But I will see you at the virgin sacrifice later and hopefully the angry god living in the mountain yonder won’t eat us.’” INDEED. And, yeah, iPhone is just the latest in a series of things I have used to ignore people in public since I started going out in public, and I find it's way more effective than a book. “… I remember the good old days when they would say to each other, ‘Hey.

Sulfates are in pretty much every other toothpaste and they can contribute to any number of issues. I especially dislike Crest Pro-Health toothpaste. It makes my tissues slough, and it stains teeth. Not worth using imo. I probably recommend switching to Sensodyne or Tom’s of Maine to at least one patient/day.

In the event that you're out to dinner with me, or even choosing to sit in a room with me, I generally take that to mean that you like talking to me. So... put the phone down? Plz? As for a way to avoid people in public, I often commute with headphones on without actually listening to anything as they generally stop people from talking to me. It also gives me an obvious excuse to straight up ignore the people who straight up ignore my cue that I don't want to chat. Hmmphh.

My other two hits in my life have been deserved. One was your beloved husband (he told me to hit him, I did and then cried, I'm sure you've heard the story many times) and another was at an 8th grade graduation party after a friend I asked very nicely not to spray me with the hose (I was dressed up to go somewhere after) sprayed me with the hose anyway. And I hit him. And he deserved it. Whatever. I also shook my cat once after he knocked over several plants and a wine rack. I am not proud of that....
