1. A new neighbor moved in next door and doesn't have wireless Internet protection! Good news for us Butts because we can now get Internet for free off of her! (P.S.- her car has a bumper sticker that reads: "HONK if you understand differentiated equilibrium!" If that doesn't provide insight into a person's life, I don't know what does.)
2. Today, in the middle of class, a girl took off her sandal, whipped out a tub of vaseline, and began moisturizing her right foot. When I asked her what in the world she was doing, she exclaimed, "Mrs. Butts! My feet are so ashy!" So I guess that makes sense.

Being a teacher many years ago I did encounter a few ashy feet, but I don't remember any of the girls using vaseline -- at least not in class. You are probably going to see a lot of other unusual things.
Now as to the gal with the bumper sticker -- equilibrium is the condition of a system in which competing influences are balanced, and it may refer to conditions in biology, chemistry, economics, game theory, music, physics and a number of other areas. Differentiated is when one has made someone or something different or shown a difference between or among something. This is getting scary. What does this ditzy broad mean?
Sounds like one of Caleb's comments.
I only put Vaseline on my feet when I can put on a sock and sleep for at least 8 hours. Think of all the toe jam/dirt from the floor/goo that will build up in Vaseline one's foot.
GROSS!!
And I bet she doesnt wash them every night either. I am really getting grossed out by this mental pic.
you MUST ask laura about her vaseline/ashy student.
hilarious.
but the real questions: DO you understand differentiated equilibrium?
True, Amanda. Very gross. But I admit, I have done the vaseline-with-sock trick on my feet as well. Didn't really work for me, sadly. I still have rough feet. I believe that my grandmother has blessed me with the genes to develop (with old age) poor bunyons. Is that how you spell bunyons? Not sure, but either way, I'm probably doomed. Please don't make fun of my vulnerability to bad bunyons.
