THINGS THAT SUCK:
Being a Delivery person for this job:

From Sevier Serpents

Other things that suck…
IBD, Star-gazing, Rat Bites, non-feeding snakes
“what’s wrong with my snake?” threads (these suck for the person posting…but we all learn from them)

New Florida Laws

I don’t know maybe it’s just me but I hate posts that do not have punctuation to separate sentences or complete thoughts if I am reading one of these posts I get a headache I have a hard time following maybe it’s my ADD maybe it’s just that the poster was in too much of a hurry to think about how it may sound if read aloud I hope when you read this you also find that it can be quite annoying but I don’t mean to be cruel it’s just one of those things that fits in the “Things that Suck” category lol

WELCOME NEWCOMERS and LURKERS:
Welcome Trey Schneller
Check out some of his collection pics:
Welcome First time poster to the forum – BoidaeAddiction

FINAL THOUGHTS:
Sorry to all those waiting for the WIR. I put this one together a little faster than the others.
I went auto shopping early Sat morning, got a 4x4 for future off road herp expeditions
Plus we got over a foot of snow in my area
Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed!

Great as always. Nice to read on a Sunday night when you want to take your mind off of having to go back to work in the a.m.

Can you believe that I work at one of the few schools that didn't have off today! HA! I was really hoping for a nice day home with my baby. We got over a foot easily and the roads were covered with ice. A few people fell in our school's parking lot and a ton of other teachers called out. I should have taken the day off. lol

michaelburton Feb 13, 2006 09:37 PM

What do you teach and what grade? I have a great respect for teachers, I don't know how you do it day after day. Tons of work and not enough pay. I teach hip hop and jazz for an urbans arts program in St. Louis City but I only work a total of five hours a week. Not nearly time and energy of a full time teacher. Thanks for the week in review and thanks for being a teacher.

10/11th grade biology....I love it most of the time and hate it some of the time. it is very stressful at times. i work my butt off too since i actually care about what i do...which makes it that much more difficult sometimes...but the best is the summer when i can spend 10 weeks with my daughter, who will be 1 yr old...nothing can beat that!
