But teacher! AOL ate my entry!

Stupid AOL!  At least, now I've learned to copy my text, before hitting "save."  That way, when AOL craps out, I can "paste" it in later.  PHEW!  OK, here goes:

Tonight was Tiger Night at school.  We met the girls' teachers (Natalie has the same teach for 4th grade that Monica had) and dropped off their supplies.  I also brought home a stack of papers to fill out and send back with them tomorrow.  I hate paperwork.

They're excited to start school.  Their lunches have been packed, their clothes are laid out, and they're talking non-stop about school.  I'm glad they enjoy it.  Monica will do 23 book reports this year.  Sheesh!  Both must read at least 20 minutes each night, 5 nights per week.  Even with all of that, they're ready.

My day was a typical Monday.  Anyone seen "Office Space"?  "Someone's got a case of the MONDAYS!"  Bah, Humbug.  I was just glad to get it over with.  Even with the hot, horribly humid ride home, I was glad to get out of work.  It was just one of those days.

Closing thoughts: It's hard to believe school starts tomorrow, and Monica will be in Jr. High next year.  Sixth grade will be tough, but she's ready.  Why do I always have tons of homework on the first few days of school?  I graduated 20 years ago!  I wish it would rain, or stop with the muggies.  I was quite moist when I got home.  Probably smelly, too.  I like frozen pizza.  Wine is good, too.  So is Diet Coke.  And beer.  And Doritos.  I want to see Mars, but the clouds will have to clear.  August 27 will be the best time.  Are you ready? Where is the telescope?  Crap, I gotta find the telescope.  I better go get ready for Super Nanny.  That show makes me appreciate my good girls.  Ciao.
