is it just me or are your exclamation points only showing up on the main ch page and not on here? oh. after i post this they might not show up anywhere and thus this question will become moot.
was i part of the fertile corner? or was that just sean and katie? wait, did sean sit in our corner? wasn’t he across the room with adam?
i’m not clear whether or not there’s a problem with this site? but if so, bear in mind your webmaster doesn’t read the comments very often so someone oughtta tell him direct.
and being that i live with him, that someone probably oughtta be me. sigh.
the fertile corner was you and me and nuala and ktv and amanda and kim. (who am i forgetting?) sean and adam did not sit in the corner but were understood to be part of it in spirit.
I think when Mr. Hagar refered to the fertile corner he was refereing to Kristen, Michele, Kim and Katie. I never felt included in his reference even though I was in the general area.
I sat on the opposite side of the room, with Adam and Dan, I think.
My favorite English class seating arrangement issue came in 8th grade, when I again sat by Adam. Ms. B made us draw playing cards, to randomize the seating chart. Adam asked if her only reason for doing this was to separate me from Adam. She said no, but when we ended up next to each other again after the draw, she stopped pretending, and moved me up front next to Kim for the rest of the year.
I don’t remember if Kim was up there because she was also a sarcastic troublemaker, or if she was an innocent victim. She was clearly sarcastic, but I think she was a lot quieter than me and Adam about it in those days. Ultimately, the move cemented our friendship pretty well.
you know, i’m pretty sure mrs. bonneville didn’t like kim either. not as much as she hated you and adam, but i think kim was mouthy to her as well. and who wouldn’t be? that woman was made for mockery.
bonneville was ok. it was hunnell who was the terror. i completely refused to participate in the entire grammar section that year–did none of the homework, would not interact with my group–bc i knew she’d still give me an A. and she did. the year gene had her, he used to regularly hold his breath until he passed out because he was so bored.
Man, we were such jerks. And by “we”, I mean, “I”.
I like that Gene tried to make himself pass out all the time in her class, but then regularly sat in on the class with us the next year, because he had a free period or something.
oh man that’s right. and the look of horror she’d always get (oh no, HE’s BACK) as she tried to get him to leave as non-confrontationally as possible (she was so afraid of all of us, why?) and he would just refuse to go.
Oh my god, you have letters after your name! Guys! Check out Michele’s alphabet soup!
holy cow, you are a miss. i can only get one of my coworkers to call me miss, and even then i have to continually remind him.
godammit i wish i was getting to go see this.
Yet again all I have is You Rock. Wish I could go. I think you need a cheering section with signs.
it’s a Ms., kristen, not a miss. and i’m not! i’m not a Ms. i’m just michele.
ha, whatever ms. cool.
Her name’s not “Baby”; it’s Michele. Ms. Cool if you’re nasty.
Even though her name´s not Baby, NOBODY puts her in a corner, unless it´s the corner from which she will be all smart and informative. Good luck dude!
or the “fertile corner,” as mr hagar called it.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh man, i love exclamation points.

oh and dan. dan was also spiritually fertile.

nonsense. you can pop out mental sprogs as good as the rest of us.
i like corners. and mental sprogs.

i enjoyed the boy-girl separation of hagar’s class, myself. i should have gone to crondalette i guess.
