I'm not going back to school

[suzbaby]

I've graduated, and for the first time in all my 25 years that I can remember, I am not going back to school. I didn't think I would miss it, but all of a sudden I find myself craving signing up for fall classes.

All I want to do is go shopping for college ruled, 5-subject, notebooks....maybe some new gel-pens, highlighters, perhaps a new day-planner.

I think I'm going to go stand in the back to school section of my local store.

*sigh*

1. you can...

you can still buy the gadetry, if it makes you feel better, who doesn't like new gel-pens?

[suzbaby]

2. Oh ya,

I like all the different colored ones. :D

Some part of me still wants to buy a box of shiny, new crayons

[mad-mommy]

5. why do kids like to break new crayons?

I miss the getting ready to go back to school phase. I've been out of school almost five years and I still crave going back sometimes. It wsa so much fun!

This is the best time of the year to do it...everything's cheaper.

Dooo it. You'll feel better. ;)

9. Maybe I'll buy the new box of crayons

and just set them on my desk at work, opened, but untouched.

11. I'm not going back but I still feel that end of summer malaise.

Maybe it's because the kids are going back.

14. Yeah. I don't know if you ever get over that feeling.

*sigh* :(
