I know I haven’t been posting a lot, and I know I haven’t been particularly great about keeping in touch with e-mails or phone calls or the like, but I just wanted to give a shout out to two very special and awesome people with birthdays: my kickass older sis Katie and my close and dear buddy Lushbaugh. They’re not much older than me, and they’re probably never going to act any Continue reading
Fuckity
< To the tune of “Jingle Bells.” > Fuck fuck fuck, fuck fuck fuck, fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. Fuck fuck fuck, fuckfuck fuck fuck, fuckfuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck…FUCK!
Now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, real quick here’s an update: I got sunburnt Tuesday Continue reading
On-line again
Yeah, haven’t been on-line a whole lot. I can’t remember the last time I checked any e-mail other than the school’s address, and even that I don’t check daily. I’m on-line at the school just enough to enter grades and attendance, and I’m on-line here at the house pretty much just enough to enter grades as well. Sitting down and posting isn’t exactly something I have much time for. I’ve Continue reading
Rook: snake catcher
The husband and I celebrated our five-year wedding anniversary yesterday, so he came down to hang out. He left this evening and called me when he got home to tell me he’d gotten there safely. I was on Rook’s cell phone, and it was making a lot of staticky noise, so I left the room and went upstairs to see if it’d get better. It really didn’t, so I came back down to my cave and pulled back Continue reading
WoW bug
This weekend was great getting to see the husband and the cat and getting to just bum around playing Animal Crossing: Wild World and Picross, but I also got a chance to play some WoW on the husband’s account, and now I’ve been bitten by the WoW bug, wanting to play again despite the dial-up connection I’d suffer through here at the house. Actually, I went ahead and Continue reading
Caught up
I am in the Haute for part of the weekend, and with our handy-dandy high-speed internet, I’ve managed to catch up on all three columns of my webcomics. So exciting! I figure that since I’m sick, I may as well sit around and relax for several hours. And several hours is pretty much what it took to catch up on a month’s worth of comics. Now that I’m caught up, maybe it won’t be as Continue reading
Up late again
Well, it’s a quarter after midnight (despite the time stamp putting this post at an hour later thanks to stupid time zone issues) at the moment, and I’m still up. Pretty much as soon as I got to the house, I started grading papers and writing lesson plans since 3-week progress reports are due tomorrow which means I need to have all of my students’ grades printed out and ready to Continue reading
Used to midnight
It’s 12:02. It’s fascinating that just a month ago, seeing midnight roll by was common and expected. Going to bed before then was odd and rare. After all, I’m a night owl, not a morning shithead. Mornings suck. I wouldn’t still be up now if it weren’t for the ever-large stack of papers to grade. I haven’t even touched lesson plans, and I may not get a chance to do so tomorrow Continue reading
Can’t be 9:30
Grar, I could get into what all I did this weekend, but somehow, it’s 9:30 and I’m tired enough to conk out. I’m hoping this up-coming weekend is far less eventful because after visiting with Aunt Pamela, spending time with the husband in LGT and Jasper, and trying to put a dent in 374 papers (yeah, I did the math; I’m a loser), I could use a break. Oh wait, can’t! Got a full week of Continue reading
First sick day
Well, I took my first sick/personal day today. Am I sick? Nope, but there was no way I was going to be able to teach today. I couldn’t really walk or stand, and I figured that would prevent me from being able to teach, so I called in. Why, you ask? Well, that’s the point of the post, so I’ll tell you. Continue reading
