GM's Thread About Everything/GM's Thread About Nothing (14 Viewers)

@shuke have you asked your son what his thoughts are?
Yes.  He is anxious.  I think he is really unsure until he has the book in his hands.  

He was anxious about even being put in this class in the first place.  Wife and I sold it to him, about a great opportunity of being more challenged, etc.

Ok good smart people of jimtan, I need a quick and easy recipe to make for the family for dinner tonight.
Halloween chili. Pound of ground turkey, onion, bell pepper (optional, best if its orange), chicken stock, can of unsweetened pumpkin, can of chipotle in adobo, can of black beans. Saute first 3, drown in stock, add pumpkin, beans, as much chipotle as your brood can stand. 20 mins. Tortilla (or chips) for soppin/scoopin. The floppins will ask for it again, i ga-ron-tee

 
So I'm trying to date a 28 year old, but it may be beyond my abilities.  We text more frequently than any gf I've ever had, but we've only hung out twice, and it has been very Nathan Jessup so far, if you know what I mean (actually even if you don't know what I mean - what a dumb expression).  Also we don't plan dates, much as I try.  When the stars align and one of our "what are you up to" texts is answered with "I'm at X, you should come," then we meet up.  It's all very odd.  

Also also, she shares my mother's first name, which seems fine now, but I wonder if I may have trouble at the moment of truth.
You know the best part about dating 28 year olds is?

there's 20 of them

:homer:  


 
Which is part of my concern.  If this is too overwhelming for him, I don't want to be setting him up for failure in this class.  At the same time, I don't want to take the easy way out.
as the husband of someone with anxiety that gets easily overwhelmed.. i don't recommend pushing him.

Thanks guys for the advice.  

I called the school to see if I could talk to the teacher.  Was told they weren't there yet and we would know who the teacher is during open house on Aug 9.

So we are going to push him to do as much as possible and see where we are then. 

I guess I have lingering concern about being one of those parents who thinks their kid belongs in advanced classes when he has no right being in them, and this whole thing has me reconsidering again.
My stepson, who is really bright, but never what I would call an enthusiastic student, asked to be put into an honors English class this year, despite hating having to do writing assignments.

His reason: He was stuck sitting next to some "idiots" in his regular class, and figured the extra work would be worth getting away from them. :lmao:

 
Just looked up Rotten Tomatoes to see where Sideways rates.  Figured with all the hatred that movie elicits in here it must be a rather pedestrian score over there.  Nope, 96% so those of us that love the movie are right and those of you who hate it might have another Spiderman movie coming out that's for you.

For the record, I didn't hate the movie. I didn't love it either.

It was just part of a joke that didn't quite work.

 
I'm gonna duck out of the ffa tonight and spend some quality time mowing my lawn.
One of my favorite things about living in a city (and there are a number of them since I love the city) is not having any yard work to do... ever.

 
I thought you were talking about a female (human), but I'm 45 and not up on what the kids are calling things these days.  I am comfortable with my confusion.
I hear ya me bro!  :thumbup:

I'm 49 and am confused with my comfort.

I really should be panic'in about some of the things that go thru my mind these days. :(

But really, its all about keep'in a straight face and plow'in thru with grace. ;)

 
Apparently in October I was awarded some equity in my employer, but I only found this out when I checked my employer-issued email this week for the first time in over a year.  As a result, the equity award agreement didn't get signed and the whole thing went away.  

I don't know what the lesson is here.  I guess that I should check that email more often, which is not a life lesson for any of the rest of you.  Sorry.  Just venting.

I'm genuinely sorry, toots. But my docs do the same thing, and it drives me crazy. Sometimes, the plebes have something important to say.

Sorry to hear this, but I wouldn't let this go.  This is really lame.  I have never heard of a company offering something important like that through email and not having someone follow up or even mention it to you over the phone or in person.  It's almost as if they were hoping you would miss it, knowing you are busy and might not check every obscure email.

I am checking on it with the appropriate folks and expect they'll try to correct it to make me happy, though I don't know for sure yet.  It's amazing that no one mentioned this was coming since it is a compensation matter.  I don't check that email because, until now, nothing has ever come there other than notification of the system being down and such.  Anything important or compensation-related has always been sent to my work email (which is different from the employer-provided one) and/or my personal gmail and there was always a phone call, too.  Nevertheless, I shouldn't have gone without checking for so long and now know to look at it at least once a month. :(
