I'm home from school and just got in from feeding the dog. There is a sweet scent in the outdoor air. Dana's yard always had this smell. I don't know if it's honeysuckle, but it's a nice smell.
I had a GREAT day today. 
What made it so great? H, star of such stories from my ex-place of employment like Muttering "F---ing A----le" To A Client On A Phone! and Don't Make Me Do The Garnishment Letters! has been fired! Sweet justice at last! I wonder why it took them 8 months before they realize she never did her work and was rude to the clients. 
I know, I shouldn't glee over this but let me enjoy the justice of the firing.
Also, today, I had a math test in class. I was in class before 6 PM and started the test as soon as the teacher entered the classroom. I was out classroom by 6:30 PM, with my test paper graded. The only mark on my paper was "105" - my test score. My test average for that class has been calculated and my test average is 102.25.
Before class, I nearly ran into this guy, Michael. I just smiled at him. Not like he knew me. He went to the same high school as me. We were in history class part of my junior year. He was a friend of him. I smiled knowing he was still in school, too. Looks like he put on some weight in face.
After class, waiting for a ride home, I spent some time talking to Laura.
And finally, a sad note today. I was with my mother today and rode past my high school. On the sign was a somber note about in memory of Franklin Butler. 
I don't know what happened but Mr. Butler was my 10th & 12th history teacher. The class he was in. That depressed me as I drove by. He was a nice teacher. He couldn't believe I was going to take 3 social studies in 11th grade. He was impressed that I missed a bunch of school in 10th grade and still had an A in his course. I'm going to have to find out, now. 
Well, I'm missing my baseball game but just had to post my mostly good news.

That's awesome that you had a great day! Sorry to hear about your teacher. Hope you can find out what happened.
AND YAY!! DING DONG THE BITCH IS FIRED!! LMAO!! 
to her!!
My yard has a "strange" scent too. Smells like sour apples. I think it's the 2 bush things on the side of my house. They are strange looking and having kinda big flowers but they look more like leaves then flowers but they're flowers.. And they smell like sour or green apples. Wonder what they are. But I do have honeysuckle in my back yard. just one little "bush" of it. I love honeysuckle. If you get the Yankee Candle "Mountain Heather" it really remindes me of honeysuckle.
WEll, I like the scent outside so I hope it will last a bit.
I'm working on finding out about Mr. Butler.
And as for H, I have been giddy all day since finding out. Rude of me? YES! Do I care? NO!
Posted by: Shawn at April 22, 2003 11:56 PMI don't blame you. I would have been doing a happy dance. LOL!! I probably would have done something immature like call her and say SERVES YOU RIGHT BITCH!! LMAO! Yes I can be petty, yes I hold grudges and yes.. I am evil. Bad of me? Kinda.. Do I care or intend to change? HELL NO!! Ok so I MIGHT try and change that whole holding a grudge too long thing but other then that.. I like being evil and seeking revenge. hehe
Posted by: Dragon at April 23, 2003 12:03 AMWell, I'm not that petty and hope I will never be that petty. All it will do is ruin your health. It killed my aunt. She was eaten by cancer and she was jealous and mean to everyone!
Posted by: Shawn at April 23, 2003 12:31 PMI don't think I am petty in a mean way... Evil sometimes but not mean. And right now, I can only think of the one grudge I have going on LOL!! And that is only because no resolution has come of it as in he at least ADMITS what he is trying to do etc. I don't let my anger, pettiness or grudges eat away at me as a lot of people tend to do. They barely even come to the surface unless something "triggers" it. We all have out little quirks and honestly, I don't think your Aunt's attitude or personality caused her to be eaten away by cancer. That is just a tragic event that happened. Her personality may have just reflected it. Since she was being "eaten away" she figured she would eat away at the world for whatever reason. Yes, certain attitudes can cause health problems but really.. I think our mood swings, depressions, stress, worry and anxiety crap will do way more damage then holding the occational grudge or being "petty" and happy that someone finally got what was coming to them.
