I know many a drinking teacher... though I think I would need to be sedated if friends, family, or teachers read my blog. Um, hello -- it is my substitute for therapy!! <BR/><BR/>I'm myself in real life, but on my blog you see all sides and the vulnerabilities that are not apparent. I admire bloggers who are known to blog by their "real life" associates... I would not have the courage to be this naked in front of everyone.<BR/><BR/>Okay, a 2nd toast -- to courage!! YAY for you Carrie! Perhaps you could meet up with that teacher for a drink in addition to parent teacher conferences?Grim Reality Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02080844233014641611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17605816.post-11969007412326743252008-09-22T18:47:00.000-07:002008-09-22T18:47:00.000-07:00Christy,It was *MY* 2nd grade teacher!

Wow! Blown away.<BR/><BR/>As for the drink, I am with you. I do talk about cocktails a lot, but only fall into a stupor of my own drool and miss family events when CG makes his lemon drops.<BR/><BR/>Ma huzband keeps thinking if he gets me sloshed, he'll get lucky. Last time he got lucky enough to take the kids to some friends' BBQ on his lonesome, while I napped it off.<BR/><BR/>I now view his Saturday afternoon cocktails with an arched brow and suspicion. No worries, I still drink 'em. Waste not, want not and all. I just sip slowly and don't take the silver bullet of "leftovers."<BR/><BR/>Heh! Good luck with the teacher readers. Heh!
