Robin:Mom?
Hmmm??
Robin: Do I HAFTA go back to school next week?
Yeah Robin...you do. Don't you want to?
Robin: But what if my teacher is mean?
I'm sure he or she won't be mean.Besides,it won't be every year that you'll get a teacher as nice as Mrs. Abricot was. Just do your best this year and there'll be no reason for your teacher to be mean okay?
Robin: Can't you home school me?
starting to get concerned Robin...honey ..is there something you're not telling me? Didn't you meet the fourth grade teachers already?
Robin: Yeah..I met them. An' they all seemed nice. But what if they're nice for the first couple of days an' after that they start gettin' mean?
Were there any teachers you heard about that seemed nice the whole year around? Any of your Frog Scout friends a year ahead of you in school?
Robin suddenly nods: Yeah! My friend Freddy had a teacher named Mr. Rodriguez last year.An' Freddy said that he was neato mosquito! Well..as long as you did your homework and behaved in class.
And you did your homework and behaved in Ms. Abricot's class right?
Robin: Uh huh! I even made up for lost time with homework when I went to visit at the swamp!
True. Well you won't get your teacher assignment in the mail until...er...this Wednesday I think.
Robin: Oh I hope I get Mr. Rodriguez !

*Trying to beat the heat... Our ICE unit's got a busted fanblade. My brother said he might know of a place that could maybe repair it, we have to call first and find out. If not, we'll have to buy a new one. :frown:
Also need to mail out a package full of figures off to a buyer, and then get a couple of monthly financial issues added to the pile.

*Flops down in couch under the spider ceiling fan.

*Drops off a few presents to birthday celebrateurs.

*At Apt 2, a tin of candied gnats with a motled slimy green Frog Scout bandana are left for Mr. Robin.
*At Apt 4, a box of orange creme truffles and a pair of new glasses are deposited for Mr. Grosse.

There, think that's everybody. Good thing Penny Candyman's at the HV Mall has such a vast selection of sweet little treats.
*Returns back downstairs to Apt 1 for some MCR while waiting for inspiration to strike like lightning.

(The gang had gone into New York for a special birthday celebration in Richard's honor - and by extension, Scooter's honor - at a bookstore on Allen Street, and has since returned home.)

Nora: Come on, Beige, save some of the truffles for Scooter - they are for him, after all.
Beige: (mouth full of truffles) Please, Nora, I'm assisting Scooter in eating these - if he consumed the whole box he'd get a bellyache.
Storyteller: Well, at the rate you're going, he won't be able to tell if he'd ever get a bellyache.
Erin: (exiting kitchen with large pitcher of orange juice and five tumblers) How do the new specs look, Scooter?
Scooter: (studying appearance in mirror) I kinda look like Harry Potter - all that's missing is the lightning bolt scar.

The orange juice is poured out, and there is a toast to Richard - as all five yell "Your face" and knock back the juice.

Well, it's official... Gotta buy a new ICE unit for my room/apartment.

At least the haunters are back up to eight and a half hundred again. Though I'm wondering about that salamander from TMS...
Hope Pew found his gift, seems the others liked theirs. :smile:

So Robin...how was your first day of 4th grade?
Robin: It was great! My new teacher Mr. Rodriguez is really nice. He said he only gets mad if you're lazy and you don't do your work or homework.
Well that's good. I know that you're not lazy. And you always do your homework and your schoolwork.
Robin:Yep. An' guess what?
What?
Robin: Ya know that girl Penelope? The pig that kept makin' kissy faces at me last year?
Mm-hm?
Robin: She moved! So I don't hafta put up with her makin' kissy faces at me anymore!
