My Dog Ate My Homework

...and other excuses of our day.

I'm hugely busy for another 48 hours. Please stay on the line and GreenTuna will be with your shortly. To tide you over with a quick tale from the front, I will tell you that last night I got to enjoy TinyTuna's graduation from D.A.R.E., which is the "Drugs are bad, Mmmkay?" program put on by the local law enforcement agency in conjunction with (not "conjugation" you stupid spell checker) with the school district. She got a Tshirt, a certificate, and a blue tongue from the cake frosting. I got a gym full of fidgety kids, parents who talk on their cell phones during the program, and ten (10!!) fifth-grade student speeches about what they learned from Office Mark.

My favorite was the speech that told of the evils of Marry-Anna.

So class, repeat after me:
Marry-Anna is bad, Mmmmkay?
