AmySue, I wish I could tell you that the girls will grow out of it soon, but unfortunately you've got a ways to go. I work with college students and they are even worse than the little girls as far as the way that they treat one another!
I had another crappy day at work in terms of the fact that we spent most of the day working on our budget cut scenarios and then there was a big town hall meeting at the end of the day. It was gloomy at best as people talked about what has happened and what it yet to come. There is a big economic report being released on Jan. 22nd and quite frankly my ability to come on the trip will rest on what that report says. Right now we have to cut 8% of the university budget, but if the results of the report are worse than we are currently anticipating (and many people believe that it will be) then we are looking at an even worse scenario. And, since Dave works for the newest higher ed institution in the state, there is talk of their school being shut down completely if things are really bad. So, count me as on the fence at the moment.
