A "math-facts" turkey? Sounds like every math test I've ever taken. Apt description indeed.

I believe you said toward the end, "make OUT for today's total crappiness." Freudian slip? You should know Harry's still too young for you! :)

Listen again....I just checked and I totally said "UP." I think you're fruedian-hearing-things :)

And yes, I had to fashion a giant two-dimensional turkey out of construction paper. The tail feathers have a variety of math facts written on them. The turkey has a speech bubble reading: "DON'T BE A TURKEY! KNOW YOUR MATH FACTS!" This is how low I've sunk.

Yeah. Confusing and, in my cases, very VERY embarrassing.

Thankfully, I usually realize that I'm going to pass out a few seconds before I do...like the time at the high school assembly. I had enough time to say to my friend standing behind me, "Erica, I think I'm passing out..." and the next thing I knew, I was down on the track, looking up at everyone staring at me. It's a good thing she caught me though, so I didn't crack my head on the track surface. I'm such a pansy.

Thank you barn! That's what I'd thought it was, and then the Red Cross person kept calling it a deFRIBulator, and then I felt stupid.

Of course, someone in our group also thought that asthma was contagious...so, I'm going to try my hardest not to have a medical emergency around any of them.
