Sunday, March 13th, 2005

[Deleted big chunk of post that was too close to comfort for Mike (about his work, not about him)]* Today we did more research on neighborhoods and housing. We’ve discovered that we really don’t want to do our original plan of living close in to the new office to save Mike the commute time. We’d [...]


Sometimes I forget

Saturday, March 12th, 2005

It’s often hard for me to remember that I gain new readers to this blog on a semi-regular basis. I just looked in my archives and realized this thing celebrated it’s third anniversary last month. Of course, I didn’t celebrate. I’m terrible at remembering things like that. Mike and I have never celebrated any anniversary [...]


Give Me a Big Stick

Friday, March 11th, 2005

Today was spent spinning a really big stick. I would spin it and spin it and about fall over from dizziness. Kids would jump over it and shriek gleefully. I can’t believe I’ve become a big stick spinner. I subbed in PE today, in case you couldn’t tell. The stick was really interesting. it was [...]


Do Something Different Day

Thursday, March 10th, 2005

There’s someone on my friends list who is involved in a project called Do Something Different Day. I’m not at all sure of the specifics. I’m unadventerous enough that I don’t want to do something different on a weekly basis. That would be a whole lot of different and require too much mental energy. Today [...]


Some people need to be slapped

Wednesday, March 9th, 2005

My palm is itchy. Faces demand to be slapped, yet I don’t want to go to jail or get my ass kicked, so I must calmly keep my slap-hand to myself. What a hard life I have. Today was one strange day. I got to school and found out that the teacher I was subbing [...]


Oh say can you see. . .

Tuesday, March 8th, 2005

When you are not a singer, the Star Spangled Banner is not your friend. I love the song, and I enjoy singing under my breath when I hear it, but being the song leader? No thank you. Thus, it is only right that I had to sing that song about 20 times today. I hobbled [...]


Just Dandy

Monday, March 7th, 2005

My day was going great until 2:00 pm. As students piled into the classroom I began to hear “Q311, Q311″ whispered around the room. It’s not gangsta talk. I only wish it were. Instead, it’s my apartment number. My across the hall neighbor boy was in the last class of the day and I really [...]


Socializing

Sunday, March 6th, 2005

Last night we went out and socialized. Amazing, I know, but true. One of Mike’s co-workers invited us over to dinner and so off we went. I was happy to have a chance to socialize, but a little nervous about socializing with co-workers again. We did a dinner with a different co-worker and family a [...]


I think I may just die from boredom

Friday, March 4th, 2005

This has been one of the most boring weeks in the history of the world. I worked a grand total of 1 1/2 days thanks to a combination of snow days and doctors appointments. I really hope I work all next week. My day at the middle school went really well even though the subject [...]


Poor, Unfortunate souls

Friday, March 4th, 2005

I did some internet digging for all you poor, unfortunate souls (yes, I’m singing that to the tune of the song from Little Mermaid) who have no idea what Dilly Bars or Buster Bars are. Buster Bar Dilly Bar It should be noted that this is a picture of a candle, not a real dilly [...]
