See you teachers are quick on the uptake. Yep it definitely means insane.Originally Posted by tlkiwi
I presume that by "touched" you mean insane..? I hope so - it's definitely the category I fall into.
Being a little potty makes life more interesting I think.
PS for all the Americans Potty also means insane.

I thought potty was where my students forgot to go during recess.

Some of us colonials read English Lit and have managed to learn real English, even if we can't pronounce it properly. Originally Posted by Trekhawk

LOL - when we first got here one of the teachers asked my then five year old if he wanted to go potty. He got really excited because with the accent he thought she was saying paaaarrrtty. Disappointment quickly set in when he realized she was only offering a trip to the Loo. Originally Posted by Veronica

Hey Crazycanuck - just wanted to let you know that my jersey arrived today and I love it. I also scored a free ball cap and 3 temporary tattoos to boot (got to be happy with that). Originally Posted by crazycanuck

A few months ago I ordered their jersey and a water bottle. I really like them! They also sent a matching cycling cap and some temporary tattoos. The envelope I received in the mail was addressed by hand to "Komrade Cari". The guy doesn't even use a postage meter. I think it's pretty cool. Originally Posted by Trekhawk

WHY LOOK HERE?
YOUR DESTINY
AWAITS YOU
IN (sic) THE ROAD!
I hope all of you who got the jersey like it lots and wear it proudly.

Rats, no smalls or mediums left in the womens jerseys!
As to venting about work, I say have at it!! We all have bad days---if it isn't the deadlines, it's the politics or more often than not, OTHER PEOPLE (be they students, bosses, "customers," coworkers). At the risk of sounding like a dinosaur, I would love to be a stay-at-home wife and spend my days riding my bike, hiking, reading, volunteering, playing with my golden retrievers, etc. I've been a "professional" for 18 years, and am counting down the 13 years and two months I have left until I can retire at full pension.
I like my job and my paycheck, but my outside interests are how I'd much rather spend my time.

Ooops sorry mickchick I got the last medium they had. You should email them though maybe if they have enough interest they will get some more womens jerseys. Originally Posted by mickchick

Im with you on the outside interests before I started cycling I was thinking of returning to work when my kids were all at school. Now I have been bitten by the cycling bug I just think who needs work when I will be able to ride every day. Yipee now I just have to get my youngest off to school and my dream will be realized.

Don't look at me..............my goal is to find a rich man that wants a woman to keep!!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
