I hate idiots

Thursday, October 21st, 2004

I think I’ve landed in hell. I’m at an extremely small elementary school today (some grades only have one section, a couple have two) teaching vocal music. I’ve subbed for elementary music teachers before. It’s usually pretty fun. The teacher will leave out the CDs with the kids’ favourite songs marked and the kids get [...]


Aliens Abound

Wednesday, October 20th, 2004

Some days I wonder about my sanity. Things worry me. True, I’m not the biggest worrier in the world. I just don’t have the energy or stamina that is needed to sustain long term worries. I do have my moments though. Like last night. Mike had his satellite manoeuvring to take care of, so I [...]


What am I doing?

Tuesday, October 19th, 2004

I should be in bed right now! Work really puts a crimp in my style. I go to work, get tired, come home and don’t want to exercise. I suppose that applies to about 80% of the adult population in the US (I just pulled that number out of my butt so it’s not exactly [...]


Points

Monday, October 18th, 2004

1) Why on earth is Everwood a re-run? There were only two new shows so far this season! 2) I have no idea why I was scared of subbing at the high school. I was picturing myself as a frumpy Michelle Pffiffer in a gangstas paradise. Sometimes watching TV is a Bad Thing. The students [...]


Nothing Much

Sunday, October 17th, 2004

I came this close to not making an entry tonight. I have nothing to say. Honest! We thought we had an Internet outage this morning, so we decided to go out on a little adventure and not think about all the potential e-mails that could be just waiting for a reading. You know, important stuff [...]


Obsessions

Saturday, October 16th, 2004

I have an addictive personality. When I get excited about something I just can’t let it go until I have the something I’m excited about. Or until the next big thing comes along. Just depends on what it is. But I knew I couldn’t let this whole wireless Internet thing go. paradisecowgirl explained it so [...]


Exceptionally Good Day

Friday, October 15th, 2004

Why I am loving today and hope it never ends (except it’s the weekend, so I do want to enjoy some special Saturday Activities). Work was excellent today! I taught every grade today (K-5) so things were moving fast. I was a little worried because the librarian (who has her Ph. D!) seemed to be [...]


American Politics

Friday, October 15th, 2004

UPDATE: I fixed the links so they work. Stupid automated link maker. Grrrr (Stealing the links from Drottningen but I’m sure she won’t mind) I’m not that much into politics and don’t like to get into arguments about it thus I generally keep my mouth shut. I just can’t keep my mouth shut about this., [...]


It’s here!

Friday, October 15th, 2004

The long awaited (yes, you were long awaiting it, didn’t you know?) new issue of Mosaic Minds is live! The theme is fears and phobias, but there are only two things that scared me (other than writing my article on my fish phobia. I broke out in a cold swear during most of that). Can [...]


It’s a sign!

Thursday, October 14th, 2004

I have a job tomorrow. I think it might be a fateful job. Or at least it would be if I was superstitious. I’m going to be the librarian at an elementary school! Is that fate or what? I apply to be a librarian and POOF! I am one. Yes, yes I know that is [...]
