It's been a loooong day.

But a good day, I just haven't recovered from the all-nighter I pulled on Sunday. I was trying to catch up on my grading and lesson planning and stuff. I got about two weeks behind after the accident, but I can't seem to catch up; I was already running as fast as I could! Anyway, I'm so far behind, but what am I doing during my conference period... not work, that's for sure. I always feel like I need a break after classes, then I usually get back to the grindstone once school lets out. Not a good policy, I know. This post appears to be stupid, pointless and dull. Sorry. I now open up a contest: interesting things for Lorien to talk about. Who ever wins gets...um...oh I give up. I'll try again in a few days.

Sorry guys

I know I haven't posted on here in a while. But since Keri died, I've just been really really busy. I'm still trying to decide if I want to post anything on here about that whole story. Probably not, it makes me sad. But as of right this minute, I am decorating my first ever real Christmas tree with Sam, and I am ecstatically happy! If you're really lucky, I'll even post a picture of it when we're done! Love to all!

And it's over

The weekend, that is. It was too short, and we didn't do a darn thing, except rearrange the living room! Which Sam did all by his lonesome, while I was at Petra's drinking beer and watching movies. Oh yeah, we also went to the Football game...which we won! It was so much fun. And our marching band is pretty awesome, at least, they blew the other teams band out of the water...Anyway, there's not really a whole lot I can ever post here anymore, since my life pretty much revolves around school, and I write about school on a different page. If you wanna know where to go to see it, give me a call or leave me a comment, I'll make sure you find out!
Love to all!

Grr.

I started a NEW blog, just for anonymous school stuff....but my profile was on it. As far as I can tell, there's no way to show my profile on one blog, but not the other. Whatever. I'm having a bad day. Sometimes doing what you're supposed to do makes you feel like a real jerk.

Darn

I thought I was being sufficiently vague and discrete on here, when talking about school stuff. But older and wiser heads have told me otherwise. So I deleted my most recent post, and I'll delete any others that you guys think are out of line. In the meantime, where am I supposed to bitch about school if not on my "bitch about school" page???

Non-school stuff: The fair was awesome! In no particular order I:
-Saw the biggest pig I've ever seen in my life
-Saw some mutant pigeons, and asked Sam if we could buy one (they were only $10! He said no.)
-Ate a foot long corny dog
-Watched the 18th year of the bird show
-Got slingshotted (or just shot? is slingshot even a verb?) 220 ft in the air in less than 3 seconds...twice (P.S., that's a GREAT website, it goes into extreme detail...in case you ever want to buy your own.)
-Sat in a Yaris, the new car I want when I get a new car
-Watched drunk Longhorns and Sooners harass each other
-Saw a sculpture of Marylin Monroe and Frank Sinatra....made entirely out of butter
-Saw a cross-stiched portrait of Clay Aiken (it got second prize)
-Oh yeah, ate some fudge too.

Also, Sam and I made our combination birthday (both of ours)/two year anniversary plans. We're going on vacation.....to Oklahoma! Right before Thanksgiving. It'll be better than it sounds. We're going to the casino that's only about 45 minutes from our house, but we're staying in the nicest little B&B while we're there. It's also right near Lake Murray and Turner Falls, in case I get tired of slot machines (yeah right!) or run out of allotted gambling money. I'm really looking forward to it, since we've never been on a real vacation together before. :)

Anyway, enough of this. Love to all, even the anonymous student who wrote "bitch" on my door. I'll take it as a good sign that I'm not being too much of a pushover!
