I’m going to do something weird now! I’m going to quote something from a different thread so I can reply to it without having to post in the Say Something Nice thread!

Hey, you encouraged it. =P


^ It's cool, Owlette. We all know in truth you are quite humble. It's one of the reasons we like you.

Thanks, SK! That means a lot!

There! Now I feel better.

 

[Owlette]

Good night everyone! Have a good day tomorrow!

Oh, what's BFG?

In video games, it stands for Big Freaking Gun.

But I assume you are referring to something else since this is books, not games. =P

The title of the book is The BFG by Roald Dahl. Which stands for “Big Friendly Giant” I believe. I haven’t read that book yet but maybe I should as that author amuses me.
I have watched the recent movie though and I enjoyed it more than I expected.

Spot on!

It’s so much fun and we are really enjoying it.

L enjoyed the film too

@SarahsKnight praying for you.


Me and L are reading BFG. Roald Dahl is a amazing writer

You are awesome! I read a few Roald Dahl books to my class and they ate them up! I only wish their parents read them chapter books at home as well. I can't imagine how beneficial it would be!
How old is L?

L is 8 nearly 9. He can’t read very well. Or sleep but then he did ask me to write out big foot. So I got him to do it himself by sounding it out and he done it! I was so proud. He’s getting there slowly slowly. He more than likely dyslexic just waiting for assessment.

So yeah I read because reading is amazing and I want him to experience that and build up his language.

When I was little I always had a book in my hand,and
had an huge collection.

That moment when you watch a show you watched growing up for nostalgia and the "old people" on the show are younger than you.......

Now the question is... Will your relationship status on CF mysteriously be changed to “Private”, or will it be changed to “Married”, and we’ll never see you again?

I shouldn’t be speaking of such things though! I’m sure CF would want us to switch our status to married if we got married...

I'm too much of a law abider, it'll switch to married and I'll be gone. Maybe ill check out our old spot from time to time I see a lot of cfers these days around YouTube too, which is nice!

We have, June!! Gahh! I've kinda hijacked the Dream Wedding thread as of late, but I suppose I could stop mooching and make my own.

I just meant on my YouTube channel. Several of my CF buddies come by from time to time in the comments. My videos are nothing to write home about, but my channel is PeachLoveHappiness if you're interested.(disclaimer: the video that posts Tuesday is my weirdest and creepiest yet)

Ooo that's the perfect age! My students are the same and it just seems like Roald Dahl is such a good match!
I looove that you're reading it to him especially because he can't read well. That's exactly the reason I began to read it to my students. I wanted them to be able to listen and enjoy grade level texts, but also practice comprehension skills and be able to talk about it. I think it's really beneficial especially if he is dyslexic then reading may just take him a little longer.

But yeah basically mom of the year!

WOMM... I wonder how bad it is for a person to stay up all night every once in a while... I haven’t slept at all tonight and I go into work in a few hours! I knew I shouldn’t have drank that cup of coffee before dinner!

Isn't that what owls do?

Yeah, probably going to be rough for you today, Owlette. We'll pray that you get through, though.

It always seems like an ok idea, but if you're anything like me once 10/11 hits you feel like death the rest of the day.
Hopefully you're functioning ok.

It's not good. besides affecting your mood and so forth the next day, it will create a sleep defecit. Contrary to popular opinion, a sleep deficit is not paid off simply by sleeping the number of hours you lost extra the next day. Sleep deficits take an exponentially greater amount of sleep to cover because it causes damage that has to be repaired.

I'm not explaining this in medical terms, there are articles about it that will use more precise language. But I am sure you get the gist. What you lose from the loss of four hours of sleep cannot be regained from 4 extra hours the next day.

Of course if it is just once, you probably won't notice the affect. but if it becomes habitual... one study I read found that people don't even realize that they are operating at a subpar level. The chronic affects of not sleeping enough accumulates slowly enough that 3 weeks later you don't realize you are running at 50% efficiency. You feel normal, but in comparison to the well-rested you 3 weeks ago, you are in poor mental shape.
