Too funny, and totally busted!<BR/><BR/>I've been in a girlie mood lately too, and for some reason that shocks the heck out of people... like "OMG, you're actually GIRLIE!?!" Kinda annoying when you have to remind people that you are a girl, and therefore have the right to be girlie!Erica Ortizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14387090036315983977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11786280.post-52639230080828389572008-09-01T15:30:00.000-06:002008-09-01T15:30:00.000-06:00I are a teechur, and I have made the announcement ...I are a teechur, and I have made the announcement that if anyone ever sees me dressed in anything apple-themed, or with a knitted ruler on it, they are to (without pause) put me out of my misery because I have either been taken over by the pod people or taken all leave of my senses.<BR/><BR/>I don't dress like a teacher at all. I dress like a woman and I teach almost all boys. My thinking is that if I can give off the vibe that "real women can fix computers" they might actually believe "real women can fix computers." I obviously don't dress with the boobage hanging out or inappropriately, but I also don't take pains to dress other than my own natural style. When I started teaching my mother told me two things:<BR/><BR/>a) You need to lose weight or you'll never get a job. Where *I* work all the women are very thin and attractive. (Read: I am very thin and attractive (ha) and you are a fat slob. I have a job and you will never get one because you are not as thin and attractive as I am.)<BR/>b) You must wear a dress every day or the students will not respect you. (Read: I am a bitch and the students I am an aide to don't like me, but I am thin and attractive and wear a dress every day so at least they respect (or are scared) of me.)<BR/><BR/>My mother and I don't get along? Why do you ask? How can you tell?<BR/><BR/>I rarely wear a dress, I often wear JEANS (horrors) and my kids love me, but not that way...purely in a "We have a pretty cool teacher who can subnet and convert hex and talk about WOW and she's a girl...at least we think she is.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18031232209853522144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11786280.post-49630123933405783272008-09-01T11:26:00.000-06:002008-09-01T11:26:00.000-06:00I have my teacher uniform: solid color sweater and...I have my teacher uniform: solid color sweater and gray or black slacks.

My mom taught special ed for well let's see over 20 years I think. I always tell her she dresses like a teacher (she is now retired) We were recently at a memorial for a wonderful educator/principle who happened to be my second dad growing up. The man was way before his time in education did things in the 70's that were un heard of at the time, but are now mainstream. Anyway I digress. We were at the memorial with the entire local school district past and present in attendance. The superintendant spoke (he is a jack ass, that is another story) and asked for a show of hands of how many were teachers, probably 200+ hands went up... they were all dressed the same! lol. I even had said it to my mom... you all look like teachers! Thought I would share that with you... not that there is anything wrong with dressing like a teacher!<BR/><BR/>EmThe Young Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10077661736022646857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11786280.post-27795991912356164792008-08-29T21:59:00.000-06:002008-08-29T21:59:00.000-06:00hee hee hee - terrible friend I am. hee hee!hee hee hee - terrible friend I am. hee hee!the Dread Pirate Rackhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06758895507726373202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11786280.post-46002730089958749052008-08-29T21:36:00.000-06:002008-08-29T21:36:00.000-06:00White House/Black Market is the BEST!!!!
