I keep reading Ally's link as 'pornocopulis'.

In Spanish, nouns have gender (e.g., la mesa is "female", el barco is "male"). Nouns that refer to people switch genders depending on if the subject is male or female. For example, a male teacher is "un profesor", a female teacher is "una profesora".

Similarly, if you're talking about an animal, the gender switches with that of the animal. So a male dog is "un perro", a female dog is "una perra".

What ocurred to me this morning is that the same does not happen with the word for "person". As a matter of fact, the word for person remains "female" no matter the subject. Una persona es una persona.

Interesting.

My dog ate his own barf last night while I went to get something to clean it up. Dogs can be gross.

why is it when you get new glasses, you have to factor in the total disgust you encounter with suddenly seeing how dirty your house is? and car, and dog, and.....

:(

By talking about rainy day activities at schools, I made it rain today. I did not bring in any games, even though I pulled a couple out of the closet last night.

Today is Read Across America Day, Dr. Seuss' birthday. We were supposed to do an outdoor readathon with the entire school reading, but instead they'll have to do it in the classrooms. I feel bad.

Actually, I don't care too much because the readathon is always after I've already left for the day. That always bugs me.

I doubly caused it to rain because I didn't bring a jacket. My hat and scarf will have to do. It's pouring. Now this is how I plan to get well :rolleyes:

When he's gone, I always miss my husband more than I think I will, until it's no longer an emptiness but a stabbing ache.

I guess having a crazy cold doesn't help either....plus it's that time of the month.....yeah, good week for me.

Did I mention it was raining?

Son of a....

Why do I lie on my drivers license about my weight? What happens if I am lost? What will they say? 'Oh man, that is a lie. She really weighs....' :blush:

I will tell the truth if it is life or death...really....:D

If a building is on fire, are we supposed to break every glass in that place? 'Cause the sign next to the fire hose says "In case of fire, break glass"

How does breaking glass help the firemen?
