Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with WFTD.

The febrile worship of the ghey proceeds apace.

No pushing at the door please!

[xsmommy]

good morning!

febrile (deffn) -- to piss off during February, as when forgetting to get a Valentine's present.

see also:

aprile -- a month in the Chaucerian calendar.

I don’t get the second one...? A+++ for the first though ; )

[secret garden]

I need to get to the park and get the run done early before it gets hotter and I risk going febrile.

[xsmommy]

yes, supposed to be 91 and muggy today. a hot and humid week ahead. very different than the overcast and CHILLY weather in upstate NY this past weekend! it was 57 on Sat AM!

[xsmommy]

A+++

[secret garden]

That was a gross story, BTW. The comments were pretty bad too. I feel sorry for people who think this is a good thing.

[xsmommy]

I know, it was shocking to me. The father sounds gay himself, but there’s no way to tell from the article. The comments were really sad.

[secret garden]

I think the rest of the class is waiting for the ping.

[xsmommy]

aha! I am so disoriented this AM. I copied the ping list but must have gotten distracted before pasting it into a post.

Hope everyone had a good Father’s day yesterday. It was kind of eclipsed by our niece’s wedding this weekend, as was Mother’s Day by xsboy’s graduation last month.

Lois Lerner’s excuse, really feeble
Has gotten my blood boiling, febrile
They said this cold female
Lost every email
Completely legit, to the sheeple

[verga]

I have sold 9 books on Amazon.com in the past 5 days. I have been going to the post office with febrile abandon.

[afraidfortherepublic]

I would welcome “febrile” this AM, it’s been so cold here in recent days. It’s supposed to be 80 this afternoon, but not until AFTER a moriing of T storms.

[afraidfortherepublic]

What kind of books are you selling?

Chelsea must have been suffering a febrile attack when she thought up this outfit to wear at a Conservation Fund gala.

Chelsea Clinton is one fashionable mama-to-be

[Robert A Cook PE]

Febril ... Aren’t those the 31 days of dribbling snow and drizzling rain we March through to get to April’s showers?

[xsmommy]

I thought it was the IRS that lost them, but regardless, it is an outrage and NO ONE can possibly think it’s legit. A++++

[xsmommy]

good for you! A+++
