sass and sensibility

"I don't see much sense in that," said Rabbit. "No," said Pooh humbly, "there isn't. But there was going to be when I began it. It's just that something happened to it along the way."

Where in the world is...

text received by a teacher over spring break:
"Ms. P, I'm sorry to bother you, but I have an important question to ask you."

(teacher declines to respond since she is on her honeymoon)

This week at school...
Ms. P: Drama Queen, I got your text while I was gone; what did you want to ask me?
DQ: Well, you know how you always see words in the dictionary that say, like, "derived from Latin"?
Ms P: Yes...
DQ: I just wanted to find out if Latin was a country.

Yep. Important question. Definitely.

me: Who do you think I am??
student 2: You act like she teaches at a public school or something!
