Dear Sillies,
My 8th grade History Teacher Mr. Kalan was oh so dreamy. I loved his Western wear (tight blue jeans, cowboy boots, and a handsome clean cut mustache). So, Mr. Kalan, this one's for you in gratitude for so effortlessly making me love History for one and only one year of my life.
How about you? Did you have a teacher crush? Do tell!
Definitely NO teacher crush. They epitomised who I didn't want to ever become. I had a couple of good ones but they were so not fanciable.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, EC. It did make learning more fun. There was only one fanciable one, though, IMO. Smiles.
DeleteYou could read that to a group of second graders and they'd have no idea. Seventh grade...they would giggle like girls!
ReplyDeleteHaha. True, Alex. A sweet little boy told me he liked my Santa Erotica. The innuendos fly over their cute little heads. And kids grow up too quickly these days. Yeah, by 7th grade, they'd be giggling girlishly!
DeletePS I mean that after I performed my Xmas erotica at an open mic, the most innocent little boy praised me. Little did he know he was no longer innocent.
DeleteI see Martha Stewart has cropped up again! Did you see her and Snoop Dogg at the Paris Olympics equestrian events? They looked very posh together.
ReplyDeleteSo funny. I didn't see her there, Debra. Oh, I meant to mention too that HRH made her way into this one too. Did you catch that? Ain't no stopping that pussy.
DeleteOMG, I was so busy looking at Martha I missed HRH right above her head! My cataracts are getting worse, lol.
DeleteHaha. No worries, SWS. Glad you caught onto it now.
Delete🤣🤣🤣 You have such a unique talent, Robyn! My favourite line:
ReplyDelete"Doggy, doggy show your bone" Naughty girl! 😉 And, fun to see Martha Stewart in the mix. Is that Ron Howard in the other corner?
Thank you, Debbie. Heehee. Extra loosey, huh? Yes, I crushed on Richie Cunningham too. Did you?
DeleteNah - I like Italians! 😉
DeleteHaha. Not until adulthood did I gravitate to the dark and sexy ones.
DeleteDang, even Cowboy Carter is being schooled by you. Giddyap!
ReplyDeletePlenty of school girl crushes - the high school art teacher Mr. Page was dreamy. I would have done "Ghost clay pots" with him, though the movie reference is 1990, and I was way earlier than that, but you know what I mean. Wink, wink!
Good catch with Cowboy Carter, Joanne. I didn't include her banner. Oh yeah, a reenactment of the Ghost pottery wheel scene - whoosh. I can't imagine that learning curve.
DeleteWrapping balls around the tethered pole would be a stretch.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it requires elasticity, Mike. Get working on that one.
DeleteI've never heard of Doggy, Doggy Show Your Bone - a Robyn special? And is that Olivia Newton-John?
ReplyDeleteYes and yes. Olivia Newton-John, such a cute beauty!
DeleteI didn't have any real crushes on any teachers. I used to tease a few of them, but that was just me being a rotten teen.
ReplyDeleteA rotten teen? I can't imagine, Elizabeth.
DeleteThanks for chiming in.
I had nuns. So, a crush would probably be icky.
ReplyDeleteOh no. Yeah, you'd have been punished, Al. Worse even, you'd NOT have enjoyed the punishment. Yikes.
DeleteIt is all so funny. And the comments!
ReplyDeleteI have the silliest of sillies here, and I love them. Thanks RBH.
DeleteI can't remember if I have one. Maybe not.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I had that one, Lux. At least one class wasn't painful at all.
DeleteI read this with both sides of my brain. My inner kid related to each line and the old lady me giggled loudly. Wonderful memories but who knew we were living innuendoes!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your talent!!
Thanks so much, Toni. Subtle and not-so-subtle, right? I like to tiptoe that fragile and non-existant boundary.
DeleteIt's great to meet you. Perhaps another meetup is in order? I'll be in your arena soon-ish.
A soon-ish meetup would be something to look forward to. What is bringing you to northern California?
DeleteRobin, I seem to have lost the link to your answer to this question but I did read it in my email. You're not that far from me. My husband and I drive to Mt. Shasta sometimes several times a week.
DeleteA soon-ish meetup would be fun. Stay in touch.
Hi Toni. I couldn't find an email for you. Mine is Rawknrobyn at aol dot com. I live in Chico, CA. I'm planning another venture to Mt. Shasta because...Mt. Shasta. Let's connect. YAY!
DeleteI came over to say "Hi" from Debbie. And yes I thought my 9th grade study hall person was quite good looking.
ReplyDeleteOh my, the study hall person...gave new meaning to "study". Ha. I love that, Peppy/Dora. Thanks greatly for visiting via our wonderful mutual friend, DebbieSWS.
DeleteSuch a fun and nostalgic post! It's amazing how a teacher can leave such a lasting impression. Mr. Kalan sounds like quite the character!
ReplyDeletebmg
He had a sweet-nerdy character, such a cutie. Thank you, BMG.
DeleteAt first, I thought..I had no crushes because I went to Catholica school and the teachers were not that great. Between a very fat, obnoxious history teacher and a nun who looked like a potato in a habit, there was no one. Then I remembered one teacher.. a young priest...I could have climbed him like a tree.
