I can’t complete with your meltdown numbers. I rarely have them. But when I have them, I have them BIG. Most recently, as we’ve been thinking about buying a home in Portland, the meltdowns have been over missing New York and my family. Caffeine definitely plays a role in my meltdowns, too. I am one tightly wound lady after the pot or so of coffee that I swig throughout the day.
And in regard to your last post, I’d like to know what comes of the little piranha who touched your son’s hair. Sheesh!

Whoa, you might want to find yourself a different grocery store to go to. Safeway seems to have a baaad effect on you.

So the moral of the story is to give you a wide berth in the store? Or just say to the kids. “Don’t look at the lady over there. She’s ODing on Diet Coke with lime.

Okay, I’m officially LOLing even though I disapprove of typing “LOL”.

Honey…I’m a melter, and have found myself in a rather LARGE puddle this week. I keep trying to assign it to something…and the only thing I can come up with is the “anniversary” of my divorce? Which was FOUR years ago…which means I was much cuter and hopeful at that age than I am now…which leads to other meltdowns…maybe I should follow suit and blog about my meltdown??? And, I’m sure your Diet Coke added to the hysteria of caffeinated fun…but the good thing with cravings is that they pass. Usually they morph into something else…but still!!

Blog away! It’s therapeutic. (I tend to blog AFTER the event. Because blogging during a melt down is dangerous. Like, uh, drinking Diet Coke with lime.) ~W

I’m so glad you are human, like me!

Suzy, I’m so human. . . wait for it. . . I’m SUPER human. And my super power is I don’t do math, but can beguile the world (IZ) into doing it for me. ~W

I melt down a lot.
Call me.
I’ll even melt down about YOUR melt downs, if you need me to.

You are very brave and honest in reporting not only the fact that you melt-down but why. As for me, I never melt down. Ever. At all. Not even a little bit.

Nope.

LOLing at Capricorn Cringes post and wondering if my calendar skills lessons should all focus on multiples of 28 . . . just so my 4th graders are prepared for future late night Safeway runs themselves!

Oh, you can try to teach them math, and most of them will take to it, Liza. But some of us, well… we’re special. ~W

LOL Poor IZ.

Thank you for the real-life lesson in why math skills are important
