Let Me tell You guys a story.
My sister is the best, there was a time when She would'nt pick up a book let alone read.
Yet this friday She is going to Torrington to particpate in the 5 grade readers digest comprehension test for a chance to win the right to represent CT in a statewide competion. (She has already beat all the other 5 graders in the schools in greenwich which is no small feat)
Now since she has gotten here I have felt rotten, everyone made fun of her for talking funny (accent but give em a few years she will be a babe with an accent) so she would hide in her room seeking solace in food which in fact doubled the insults as She put on a lot of pounds.
She is in the 5th grade and is now slowly comming into her own ie on the phone for up to 5 hours a night with one of her two friends debating about what is happening on the tv they are watching. cute but annoying heh.
So My job on friday is to be her cheer section hopefully CB will be able to come if work allows it.
So if You get a chance on friday spare a thought for the irish girl set to wipe the floor with stuck up snobby brats that think they are better than her.
Sleep well
Live better.

I have a confession to make about an Irish kid my friend and i used to make fun of in 6th grade. Well, we always used to say he was English, because he lived in England for 2 years, but that was part of the obnoxious fun. I was one of those jerks. i got made fun of plenty myself. so if it make her feel better, you can let her know that the jerks get made fun of too.
and now.... dammit you're right, I think accents add points on the hotness scale.
