This can’t be right.
*Take This Test!*
I was supposed to be a chocolate glazed donut. Or a Boston cream filled donut. I don’t even like jelly donuts.

It was the Day from Hell at work yesterday. Today promises a little relief, though not as much as I’d like. To compound things, it’s hot out there! The thermometer outside my office door registered 94 yesterday afternoon at around 4:00. Blegh. Recolored my hair Tuesday night. I think I might have left it on…

There was no Valentine’s dinner last night. When I got home, The Professor was asleep in bed. I woke him up to let him know I was home (per standing orders that I shouldn’t be afraid to wake him up to let him know I’m back/going out) and he said he’d be getting up shortly….
Not much of anything.

It’s been rain, rain and more rain here in the Land O’ Salamander. This morning, briefly, the sun managed to find a cleft in the clouds. While I can’t say that the sun actually made an appearance, it was finally possible to see shadows outside. I opened the slats of the blinds by the deck…
I hope those know-it-alls don’t make learning latin even less fun :o)~
And if I don’t actually see a car, then it can be anything I want it to be.
Remind the know-it-alls that the Latin language, and its pronunciation, evolved, so there is no one "proper" method. Furthermore, while we have some ideas how it was spoken in the Classical period, we have no definitive answers. All any of us can do is adopt the best guess. As the good folks at UPenn say, "The so-called Roman Pronunciation of Latin aims to represent approximately the pronunciation of classical times." If you want to see how they do it, try http://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/jod/AG/allgre.8.html.
I think I’d have rather had your teacher than the first one I had, a Jesuit whose only goal seemed to be to make his students cry. He was a humiliation-teaches-best kind of guy. 😛 Not that singing mnemonic songs isn’t humiliating. Hmmm. Maybe they’d both suck.
Hope class gets better. 🙂
your latin class sounds like a scene out of waiting for guffman. lol.
and, as luck would have it…slithers behind nearest large tree branch…the boy and i bought two wicker papasans last night. sadly, when we got them to the apartment, we found that they’d given us the wrong cushion for mine. now we have to go all the way back and get the right one.
The egg is cracking!!!!!!

It sounds like class is fun.
The couple sound obnoxious and rude.

Vini vidi vici. Or something.
Both dogs are doing alright… Hooray!! What a nasty week we had last week but now everything seems better. I think the Dachshund had some problems with her anal glands yesterday (she’s been to vet because of them before), but my mum emptied them. It seemed painful for her, though. I’m thinking they didn’t empty themselves last week because she didn’t poop. LOL I know, a bit too much info.
And dammit, I took the past life test too! AND the doughnut test!
There is always "one" in any class, you are lucky, you have two know-it-alls in your Latin class (which sounds like it is going to be hard!). Feel sorry for the teacher having students that undermine him behind his back.

The whizbang people hit my website 515 times this week!! Good lord!!!
LOL!
It’s good to know I’m appreciated =)
Those tests are dangerous…I know!
Do you think you could translate something for me into latin if I asked really nice like?
I thought you already knew what you were in a past life, or are sherpas not interesting enough for you?
