The Harper Valley Rumor Mill is busted...

I took the kids to the PTA harvest dance. They call it the harvest dance instead of the halloween dance because some people take offense at the whole concept of halloween. I'm thinking it's misguided and uninformed christians because they associate it with wichcraft. Of course it's all hallow's eve. You know like the day before all saints' day? Isn't that a christian thing? So ya we can't call it the halloween dance. Whatever. The farther you get the church away from my public school the happier I am. I began with a digression as per usual.

The first person I see is a really nice lady who walks up and goes, "Where's Tammy?" I'm like uh... I was unprepared. Speechless. Can you imagine that? I mean come on. So I spilled it and I felt bad that I had to tell her we split in a party setting. Then it happened again. and again. I kept having to explain it. It honestly sucked. I finally snapped. I said, "Can't you people spread a rumor? This is the god damn PT-fucking-A" OK I didn't say that. I kept my cool. People were very nice about it as I would expect. I guess it says a good thing about our school, it's not a gossip pit. That's a good thing.

Of course it would have saved me some time...
