He teaches high school English and I'm a writer and school psychologist, so we had some things in common. And he's a cool guy. So Sara *insisted* that we sit next to each other at the table so we could continue our discussion. I said, "that makes me feel kinda weird, sitting between you guys." But again, she *insisted* I sit there. So if I'm a homewrecker, Sara invited me through the door. Nay, she *insisted*. <br /><br />Does that make you feel uncomfortable?Matthttp://matthewkirby.com/kirbsidenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6131409629757210790.post-24100941811828214282009-10-02T13:52:12.530-07:002009-10-02T13:52:12.530-07:00Jenny Jackson- "mere mortals" ha ha.
