<p>Went to bed pretty much right at 10, alarm went off at 4:10 and I hit the snooze bar several times until just a few minutes ago.  DAMN!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Time to find the weather report, which will be warm and humid, get my garmin synched up and get out on the roads for 10 miles.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Later.</p>

<p>Morning.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Teacher got injured chasing down a student.  Ouch.  Workers Comp is making him take today off.</p>
<p>So I guess I get to work with a sub...again.</p>
<p>Hopefully the kid that he tried to chase down will not be here.  He was O.F.F. in a majorly way yesterday.  All year so far for that matter!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Looking forward to the end of the school day and a relaxing weekend.</p>

<p>No sleep.</p>
<p>Work is stressful, which already keeps me up...but the news from this past week has made my mommy heart cry:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>the 22 yr old son of one of my friends died yesterday due injuries from an assault</p>
<p> </p>
<p>{{So so sad for all involved}}</p>

<p>Aw, Karen, that is just tragic and so senseless.</p>
<p>My heart goes out to his parents and to you.</p>

<p>todd,</p>
<p>Sorry to hear about the staff member's injury. <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad5.gif" style="width:17px;height:16px;" title=""></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I agree about Brad's death being a tragic senseless event. Drinking, fighting, bullying, death.</p>
<p>Brad had always been a hot tempered kid [also a bully]...but had managed to keep his act together enough to move forward with his life.</p>
<p>He didn't deserve to die. And the other young men have fvcked up their lives.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>drinking, fighting, death</p>
<p> </p>
<p>yup. tragic.</p>

 

[grwcm]

<p>Good morning.</p>
<p>Sorry to hear about the tragic death of your son's friend, Porty.  It sounds terrible for all those involved.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I hope that you all have a good Friday and that the weekend will be even better.</p>

<p>G'morning. </p>
<p>Sorry to hear about your son's friend WTPJ.</p>
<p>My own son got jumped by 5 thugs leaving a bar near his base a few years ago.  The intervention of several people in an adjacent parking lot may have saved him from the same fate.  He still wound up with a concussion and severe bruising/lacerations to his face and head.  People are idiots.</p>

 

[torque]

<p>Morning all.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>WTPJ, take care of yourself today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Went for a *run* yesterday...what a spectacle.  I think I should be posting in the Newbie forum.</p>

 

[merigayle]

<p>Good morning. Porty, sorry to hear about that <img alt="" class="bbcode_smiley" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies//sad.gif" title=""> Just so unnecessary.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>No sleep for me last night. Zoe was not feeling well (little temperature) and was up from midnight on <img alt="" class="bbcode_smiley" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies//sad.gif" title=""> poor kid. Hope she feels better today. Luckily it is not a busy day at work, so i will muster thru ok.</p>

<p>'morning.  Working from home today.  I realized my son's room was going to get too hot today for the chinchilla, so I spent probably too much of my work day setting up a second cage down here by me where he will be nice and cool.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>porty, that is so tragic </p>

 

[merigayle]

<p>Altoids-- you are too funny with the chinchilla. You know you just wanted to hang out with it all day long <img alt="" class="bbcode_smiley" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies//biggrin.gif" title=""></p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am so sleepy. So glad I will be done work early today. Bad for the bank account, good for sleepy meri. It is hard to have Zoe sick for the first time, but i am glad she made it almost 16 months without being sick!</p>

 

[jebba]

<p>Good morning! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am sorry about your friend's son, porty.</p>

Last night we were letting it roll around the living room/kitchen in its exercise ball, and even my husband (who professes to dislike small rodent-y pets) was overcome by its cuteness and was baby-talking it!  <img alt="" class="bbcode_smiley" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies//biggrin.gif" title=""></p>

<p>Good morning.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One more day of 90 degree temps and then we should get into the high 80's this weekend with the possibility of some much needed rain coming in.</p>
