So I was driving to JoAnns this morning and while stopped at a traffic light, the car next to me, in the left turn lane, decided to go straight rather than turn left. But, see, I was driving straight in my lane and was in her way. So she honked at me. Honked. At me. Part of me wishes she'd have hit me so I would have had the opportunity to talk to her. So there I was, beginning my day with an idiot. Sigh.
But then later when I was at JoAnns, the lady at the register next to me told this story. Her daughter, who has a male gym teacher, had been coming home from school saying, "My gym teacher loves quilting!" and "He's really into quilting!" for the last couple of weeks. This week was Teacher Appreciation day so she bought a quilting-related gift for him with a card that said, "Don't quilt your day job" which we all agreed was clever. Many other students brought in gifts that had something to do with quilting as well. It turned out that he didn't love quilting. Another teacher had started the rumor as a prank. And we all laughed.
So now I'm bummed that the kids are no longer in Elementary school because I would totally tell all the kids that Mrs. Schnarr loooooooves cat plates and in fact collects them. Somebody, please, do this for me!
