Because I haven't embarrassed myself enough on this blog.

Sunday, May 31st, 2009

A recent tweet from the lovely Metalia said this: You know what’s depressing? Walking into a salon, and employee is all, “eyebrow?” and you’re thinking, “no, bitch, pedicure! PEDICURE!”
This totally made me laugh out loud, because I had a similar experience, which was incredibly horrifying and I believe it deserves a mention here, since hey, [...]

I've been ASSESSED..again.

Saturday, May 30th, 2009

Well, today was my second assessment for my gym. As I mentioned earlier this week, it’s been a crappy week where I’ve seen few results, thanks to the joys of being a girl and the shitty knee injury. I was really, really discouraged last night by the fact that I feel like I’ve [...]

Crank That Stanky Jerk Legg

Friday, May 29th, 2009

Today was the last day of school, and it was awesome. My students came all dressed up and looked absolutely darling…so grown up! Honestly, there are no words I can say for how much I adored my kids this year. Saying goodbye nearly shattered me and there were lots of tears on [...]

Everybody Hurts

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

Before I met Andrew, I was quite a serial dater. I had been in two serious relationships close to one another, so I was ready for some fun, silly dates. The truth is, I could write an entire blog based on my horrid dates and the losers I encountered, many specifically thanks to [...]

Determi-KNEE-tion

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Haha. That title is super lame, I know. But, since I got 3 1/2 hours of sleep last night and have the world’s most raging headache right now, I really don’t care.
Anyways, how’s your week going? I’ve been lost in a blur of end of the year work, yearbooks, lesson planning, summer [...]

Why you so wish you were my boyfriend…

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

Because than you, too, could be subjected to these sorts of GChat’s:
me: i just found the blog of someone so fun
i wanna be a fun girl
Andrew:
me: like, the kind that can dress up and let loose all the time and be silly
i not fun. i serious.
Andrew: you’re fun
me: also, this girl never [...]

103 Goodbyes

Sunday, May 24th, 2009

I’ve been in the worst mood the past few days, feeling really sad and alone and out of sorts. The same thing struck me last year at about this time, and thankfully I can be a little bit more aware of what it is. I really think that most people picture teachers celebrating [...]

Things I Can't Live Without…

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

After last weeks list of things I don’t understand and having seen lots of Do or Die list posts and other 10 Essentials type posts, I thought I’d let all you dear readers know the things that really, truly make me tick and feel really, really happy.
1. Coffee. Yep. It’s a daily [...]

My newly-discovered talent

Thursday, May 21st, 2009

This week has been kinda craptastic for a few reasons, namely work stress and my own weird bout of grumpiness for seemingly no reason at all. It’s been a real struggle to get myself to the gym, because when I get home, I’d much rather just lay on the couch in a pool of [...]

Non-sequiturs

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

A few unrelated bits of news:
—The good: I’m down 5 lbs. since my weigh-in last Tuesday. I only have 7 more days in the classroom. It’s Wednesday, which means I’m halfway through this dreadful week. I made a workout mix that I really love.
—The bad: My students are turning in [...]
