Maybe it's cause I'm listening to old MJ tunes (ie. "Ben"), that I am feeling optimistic...and perhaps a little gullible. But supposedly if I get a few people (they never really specify the #) to go to this link, I win a free Ipod! And since my last Blog was so synical...perhaps this will reinstitute my faith in humanity...or the corporation.
So check it out!

Being a Grown Up Sucks!
I work with kids.
Kids complain.
A LOT.
But these are the sort of things they complain about.
" I'm tiiiiiiired...."
When asked why they are so insanely tired.
"Ugh. BeCAUSE....last night I stayed up til 11:30 watching The Princess Diaries, and I had my friend Savannah over and she wanted to build a fort, and then my brother was barfing cause he ate way too much pizza....and...and.."
or better still....
"My life is so terrible!"
Why is your life SO terrible?
"Well cause I really wanted to go to the Sunshine Coast, to our cabin, and now I have to go to Art Camp, and my sister has to go to Riding Camp, and my Grandma isn't coming to visit until the end of July, and I have to wait until mt sister finishes the new Harry Potter, and I know she's going to wreck it for me."
OH YEAH?! Well...I'm worried my friend is going to die from breast cancer, that my brother's marriage is falling apart, that most of my friends' parents are dying, that I am going to jail for not paying my student loan, that I can't cover rent, that I am going to live my life as a nothing, and raise a bunch of kids that will hate me, and end up dead when they are 14 from huffing lysol!
And at least you HAVE A GRANDMA!!
Trade ya.
