My (old) nurse practitioner is in jail for 10 years for taking kick backs from drug companies.

She prescribed me 180 Vicodin and Percocet a month, as well as 60 adderall per month.

I’ve been clean for almost 10 years now, so she’s probably out, but they definitely went after some of them.

Laylas falafel is good if you are looking for something quick or to go. It’s a small family run chain, one in Fairfield, Westport, Trumbull and Stamford.

The owners are Lebanese and Palestinian, they take a lot of pride in their food.

If you are looking for food not at a restaurant, check out when St Nicholas is doing a festival, my mom is very active in the church and she says people go crazy making food.

I work in education as well. I work in the number 1 rated public school in CT. Been teaching and coaching for 7 years.

Sounds like your the reason why CT is getting beat by Jersey :(

It seems as if you have a personal vendetta against the state of New Jersey that's clouding your judgement. That's unfortunate you can't celebrate Connecticut's success.

I wish you the best, and I hope whatever is bothering you fades.

Maybe it's best you don't get into education, I refute my earlier comment; you wouldn't be a good teacher.

Are you a teacher? Do you work in education?

Are you familiar with the school systems in both states from a first person perspective?

What makes being third behind new Jersey so “embarrassing”?

If you are so passionate about about this, maybe you could be part of the solution. Get into education and make CT schools better.
