Let’s see, it’s raining, first off, just to set the mood for the rest of the post, and it will be raining for the rest of the day leading into possible storms tonight. Dippy. So I drag the umbrella in and am putting it down on the floor in my office once I get in here, and I accidentally catch the button with my thumb, sending the umbrella flying up which pulls on the handle and thus slices about a pea- Continue reading

Squirrel Fishing
Okay, the world isn’t insane enough. Here’s something to make it more insane: Squirrel Fishing. Oh yeah, the world needs more squirrel fishermen and women. Heather and I are thinking about trying this out our office window. We just gotta get us some nuts (or become nuts, hehe).
Grarr
So the headache I have now is going on about three or four days old. I can’t remember when it started, but it hasn’t gone completely away yet despite the drugs and extra rest I’ve been throwing at it. Happy. Oh well, I’m going to feed it some Chinese food and caffeine now. Maybe the fact that I haven’t had caffeine since Monday isn’t helping. We’ll try that then. After eating, I’ll try Continue reading
Umbrekka
When one is with an umbrella, one thinks only of the umbrella and not one’s environs else the umbrella may be snatched away by the frivolous wind or, if not lost to the gusts, be inverted and Continue reading
Links time
In lieu of typing up a long, convoluted rant about the random happenings in my life such as sore throats, substitute teaching, guest speakers (Lushbaugh, you were awesome as usual again today. Thanks!), and dried currants (Can we spell weird?), and the rest of my usual brand of insanity, I’m just going to post a few links I find/found to be interesting and you can peruse them at your leisure.

Poisson d’avril!
Pithy Post
I’m just under 200 pounds at 199 this week. I need to try and eat out or order out less. Way too many calories in a slice of pizza! Simon’s eating, which is always good. Hot dogs and corn on the cob yesterday. Not sure what we’ll do tonight; I’m thinking too much about the things I have today at work to think about this evening. As a substitute, I have to give a test to Jamie Smock’s class of Continue reading
Yet another reason to move
Atheists identified as America’s most distrusted minority
Sometimes it’s hard to remain positive about humanity. Days like today, it’s downright impossible.
Odd dream
I had an odd dream last night. I was in the blue bedroom of my parents’ house back when it belonged to me and Katie, and I was talking to Tommy, just chit-chatting and talking about random things. Suddenly, my mouth felt like I was drooling, like I couldn’t stop salivating and liquid just kept pouring out. I put my hands over my mouth to stop it, but it wouldn’t. Pulling a Continue reading
Il pleut
Well, this is the calm before the storm, I believe. Advanced registration for summer and fall classes begins next week, and while most Open Preference students are sophomores and freshmen and cannot register until the 17th or 24th, the flood consisting of those smart enough to get in early has already begun in a trickle of phone calls and occasional drop-ins today. The sitation will worsen Continue reading
