Every time I pass by a gaggle of middle school girls I get down on my knees and thank the Almighty that I had two boys. Which is why my children will be homeschooled. Presuming I have any.
I look at those girls, and what they become in high school and college, and I say "There but for the grace of God go I." It's scary.

I am blessed that in many ways God kept 'em from doing *some* of the things their mama did!

Have fun mowing.
When you're homeschooling, it's easier to lock the kid up during the hormone phase. Then again... I was just not interested in boys until I was 15 or so; and then all the ones I knew were so boring.

Yeah...but I know I NEVER was like those horrifyingly giggly girls you see in packs around town. Neither is my sister. Neither was Jen, I'm bettin'.
I swear...I had girls I was friends with all the way through elementary school, but as soon as the public school ones made it to highschool, they became unbearable. Seriesly. I had two or three homeschooled friends who I stayed close to, but the others starting talkin' back to parents, swooning over boy bands, the works.
And it's happening younger and younger now, I'd say!

Some of my homeschooled acquantances were no better. Right, so most of them were no better. But a few were better.
But I was better. Of course, I was also the geeky girl in the corner reading science fiction over lunch, rather than gossiping - our homeschool co-op provided me with the chance to be a not-popular girl.
Sigh. But here I am, almost 21, haven't had a boyfriend yet. Only had one crush, but it was a bad one. And the giggly girls all have boyfriends. It'll work out in the end, I suppose...

Oh, but that could never happen to me!
I go for the Eowyn look, anyway.

Bet he's single.What led you to that conclusion? :)
To: JenB
Eowyn look sounds more acceptable :) But I bet it's a good thing there are no costumes available based on Robert Heinlein or Connie Willis characters. . .
To: Fedora
Only that he isn't wearing a ring...

Didn't we have a discussion about Heinlein 'costumes' last night?
And I confess to a slight desire to look like the girl in "To Say Nothing of the Dog". (Verity, not Tossie!) Even if Victorian costuming is a little weird.

He'd probably answer that, um, the ring wasn't part of the costume--ROFL!
