You know, when you're lying in bed trying to fall asleep and you suddenly remember what an idiot you've made of yourself and you have to kick the sheet to make it get out of your head? Or is that just me ;-)Stomper Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04038937073264645029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33880433.post-341236283265991782007-05-01T09:41:00.000+10:002007-05-01T09:41:00.000+10:00I like your term "toothache".

It is truly heartening to be thought of in that way and very humbling.

I will never forget my English teacher asking me to stay back from class at which time he told me I was "the rudest of students" - and this stunned me. I used to talk continually in his class and think nothing of it - so therefore I was VERY rude. From that day I never spoke out of turn in his or my other classes. I just didn't think how my actions were affecting others - this was one of my first "lessons" in doing so and it comes back to me often.nutmeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00338099206534716993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33880433.post-84624305997702991692007-04-29T12:46:00.000+10:002007-04-29T12:46:00.000+10:00Meggie, "toothaches" is such a good name for them!...Meggie, "toothaches" is such a good name for them!
