I know the feeling.<BR/><BR/>You know what, though? When you were describing that Dora, I thought she thought Max was cute, and was trying to get him to chase her. Of course, I wasn't there, and I'm probably just projecting because I KNOW if I were five, I would totally be trying to get Max to chase me ;) <BR/><BR/>And I don't have to tell you this, but yo mama is a wise woman.Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03271957692024955768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10922754.post-81253765009692849162007-03-30T22:31:00.000-04:002007-03-30T22:31:00.000-04:00Sounds like Max handled it just right - what a sma...Sounds like Max handled it just right - what a smartie pants!

It would have made the other person look great at HER job, though.<BR/><BR/>I remember seeing a poster:<BR/>"Be careful. The toes you step on today may be connected to the ass you must kiss tomorrow"<BR/><BR/>Aw, I got aways from Max and playground retaliation. But I would love to know him in 25 years, when he has the responsibility of writing job evaluations.MrsDoFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07172851913079726621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10922754.post-61352373448873546442007-03-30T11:58:00.000-04:002007-03-30T11:58:00.000-04:00Just yesterday I listened to a podcast from This A...Just yesterday I listened to a podcast from <A HREF="http://thisamericanlife.com" REL="nofollow">This American Life</A>, titled <A HREF="http://www.thisamericanlife.com/Radio_Episode.aspx?episode=245" REL="nofollow">"Allure of The Mean Friend"</A>.
