Queen of Rambles

Back in the good old pre-blogging days I used to de-brief by posting rambles about my day at my online board. It was really not appropriate, but it sure did help. I just wish I had kept all those rambles. Consider this the de-briefing. You’ve been warned. Today was actually a pretty good day, just [...]

I can’t believe how different the atmosphere at these schools are compared to the atmosphere in Oregon. In Oregon everything is pretty much chaotic. The teachers don’t have a whole lot of power and a trip to the office is not feared by anyone but the good kids who wouldn’t be sent to the office [...]

Time is tick tick ticking away! Don’t forget to send in your submissions for the Fears and Phobias edition of Mosaic Minds by September 28. Only feature articles need to reflect the theme. Anything else is fair game (fiction, poetry, travel, entertainment). This should be a really fun one, so I hope to hear from [...]

I’ve discovered that I’m not as greedy as I thought I was. I had a perfect opportunity to earn $400 and I only considered it for a brief second. The word anthrax will do that to a person. There was a sign at my blood work lab advertising for people to take part in a [...]

I would do just about anything for money. No, not that, but if I have a chance to make some money I want to take the chance. I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow morning and it is KILLING me to pass up sub jobs for tomorrow. What happened with my “work a couple of days [...]

Well that was a bust. I showed up at school right on time just like a good sub should. The secretary told me the teacher was in the mail room so I could talk to her if I wanted, so I went in there and scared the crap out of the poor first year teacher. [...]

I’m so glad I never really and truly believed I was pregnant. I am almost 99% sure I had a miscarriage this weekend. I’ve looked online at all the info available and I fit the profile about 100%. I am going to call the doctor tomorrow and see what they have to say. I’ve decided [...]

I think the monthly saga is completely over now. It was five days late (extremely unusual for me) but it arrived. I’ve never had such a painful period in my life. I feel a lot like I did last weekend. Not quite as much pain, but very close. If I have another month like this [...]

This has to be short for a number of reasons: 1) Ivan the Terrible is making his presence known. I haven’t personally seen a tornado, but the thunder is rolling. Having the computer on at such times makes Mike nervous. 2) My mysterious illness from last weekend has returned with a vengeance. I’m not even [...]

At least those LJers who obsessively refresh their Friends list in hopes of a new entry from someone are getting a lot of action today. I try to keep my posts down to a manageable number because I know I can go on and on. I think I am over my emotional tirade. I did [...]
