BuddyCrocker is a San FranYorkian, raised in Northern California and living in Manhattan. Maybe if he were living in Vermont or Massachussets or Canada or Spain he'd be really married. Also, he teaches foreign and dead languages to over-intelligent high schoolers who keep him on his toes.

I'm off to keep the kids safe from wild animals...
The sevens every year go off on an overnight trip to a state park. Even though I SWORE last year that I wouldn't chaperone the trip unless I were actually teaching sevens, I was pressed into service this year. So this means that tomorrow night I will fight to sleep despite the kids talking in the other room. I'll watch as the reptile guy goes through his same schtick as he takes out the snapping turtle, the rattlesnake, the boa constrictor, etc. I'll help the kids sort through the sludge and slime to find the icky things that live in the rotting leaves at the water's edge. I'll eat WAY too many poorly cooked carbs. And the creme de la creme, I'll search my entire person for ticks when I get home. Jealous?
