Then does that make March just bitchy? Hmmm…speaking of bitchy… I’ve spent considerable time bitching on this blog, maybe it’s time to take some serious stock… Lessee… * My house is buried under 2 tons of crap. It’s to the point where I can’t even fathom where to start. * My desk at work is… Read More

So I was showering my day away last night, and I realized that I couldn’t seem to unfreeze the stress-clench from around my forehead and neck. I would try, I would think about something pleasant and it would ease up and then suddenly I would think about the mixed messages I’ve been receiving from the… Read More

(Thank you, Scooby Doo Two…) Anyway, thanks everybody for the wonderful suggestions–I’m thinking I’m going to do a website, and thanks to Catie’s excellent ideas, I’m going to put some of my older short stories on it. (And thanks for LIR, who, bless her, sent me an cool idea for setting up my own web-site…. Read More

We went to my grandparents today to celebrate my grandmother’s birthday–it was a nice day, although I felt like quite the slacker–my aunts and uncle handled everything from my mother’s transportation to Olive Garden take-out on their porch. All I had to do was show up and let the kids be cute–wow, that was a… Read More

Julie I need to keep my cat away from the computer–the fuckers are conspiring against us. Roxie managed to write perfectly torrid poetry about flowers…I’ll never look at my daffodils again, and a garden is going to make me down-right het up. And although Rae’s DD probably won for best ‘ism’ (especially because hers got… Read More

How would you like your air quality today?

The result this morning was that… Read More

The picture is for the hell of it. She really is adorable, and I had to share. Mate is working late tonight after a softball game last night and crap-all I don’t remember during the weekend and… And I miss my Mate. For those of you reading BOUND, I am much like Cory when Green… Read More

So the Cave Troll went down for a nap yesterday–on accident, on me, while watching television at 4:00pm in the afternoon. He woke up (after sleeping in the chaos that is our living room with 3 other children bopping around and the dog and the cat and a guest and mom bitching at people to… Read More

Okay, first of all, I just downloaded a bunch of pictures from my camera, including a bunch that I’m not going to post because they’re my students, and it’s one thing to humiliate your own offspring on the net, but these guys aren’t obligated by blood. I had the camera in my bag from T’s… Read More

I have an aid in my 2nd period class who often brings her crocheting with her if we’re doing seat work. I showed her how to do edgings at the beginning of the year, and she’s really been taking off with it–I told her that today, and she laughed… “Yeah…it was like learning a different… Read More
