Well, we got our ‘report cards’ at work today. According to them, I’m doing a really fine job. I even got exceptional marks in the ‘Ethics’ categories (ironic…I know).
Funny, all those terrible marks I got back in Elementary School for Penmanship don’t seem to matter now that I use a keyboard more than a pen. I feel like sending this ‘report card’ to Mrs. B from 4th grade:
“See, you really can amount to something and do a good job, even if people can’t read a damn word you write.”
[Aside: I wonder how many other “kids” remember things Mrs. B said to them.]

My fourth grade teacher was Sister Mary Stigmata from the Sisters of Perpetual Menstruation.
We called her Sister "B".

We had Mrs P.Creek and her daughter-in-law Mrs J. Creek. Also known as Old Creek and New Creek.
They conspired together to outlaw the practice of dotting our I’s with circles, hearts, stars, smileys or anything else a 6th grade girl could like.
Those tyrants!
