July 21st, 2009 I am absolutely infatuated with San Francisco. I’m not quite sure what it is—I love the weather, the people, the buildings and the feel of the city. Every time I visit, I promise myself that I’ll move there, some day. Spending this past Sunday there, with one of my favorite people was such a nice break, and not just because I got to finally stop sweating and hating 105+ degree

July 20th, 2009 *photo by Leslie Callan
After a summer of unabashed laziness, it’s finally coming to a close. I spent yesterday with Leslie, wandering the streets of San Francisco, and NOT SWEATING in the gorgeous San Francisco weather. I’ll be back later with a ton more pics.
Until then, I’ll be having a panic attack getting ready for the next 5 days. Tonight, I’ll be having some friends over, and need

July 18th, 2009 I seriously had such a nice day today. I spent my morning cuddled up on the couch, browsing blogs, drinking coffee, eating turkey bacon and steel cut oatmeal and watching Gilmore Girls. I was looking at my desk and our bookshelves and DVD’s and AHHHH! Yes, they were cute and all of that, but nothing was right where I wanted it, plus I was desperate to make things cuter. I’d

July 18th, 2009 The impending return to work always stresses me out. Not because of the actual teaching or anything like that—it’s my third year, and for the first time, I’m actually feeling semi-competent and like I know what I’m doing. Sort of. Kinda. Well, a little bit more than normal.
Anyways, it’s less to do with the actual job I’ll be doing, but how I’ll fit in everything else I love. I’ve

*The above picture is from pre-trivia dinner last night. Andrew was annoyed by my iPhone usage during our dinner. Isn’t his “mad face” cute?! I used it as part of my Project 365 thing. Have you been following that? No? Oh, well, you can find my pics here.
*I doubt you’ll have any sympathy, but I go back to work a week from Monday and I’m so not ready.

July 17th, 2009 Part One is here. Part Two is here. Sadly, this is only Part Three and we’re just scratchin’ the surface of the HORRID DATES I’ve been on.
A fellow blogger on 20-Something Bloggers wrote about a guy coming on too strong on the first date. Naturally, if it’s a dating story, I probably have a like-experience, and this was no exception.
I used to be a massage therapist. And while

Sometimes I wonder about my life. I lead a small life. Well, not small, but valuable. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven’t been brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn’t it be the other way around? I don’t really want an answer. I just want to send this

July 16th, 2009 I CAN:
*Cook and bake well *Plan a mean lesson on grammar or writing *Type really fast, with my fingers on the proper keys and without looking at the screen *Basically speed read *Watch more reality TV than most and never tire of the crap
I CAN’T:
*Put down my iPhone *Stop watching episodes of Gilmore Girls (thanks, Gina for lending me Seasons 1 & 2) *Eat spicy foods *Whistle

July 15th, 2009 Internet, I have to tell you something. Knowing me now, this may not come as a total shock, but the truth is that I used to be a pretentious bitch (HAHAHAHAHAHAHA—I’m still that way, it’s a joke, yo). Why, pray tell, did I have this revelation this week? We’ve had to do a few “reflective” exercises about our high school and college years, and I was reminded of two particular

July 14th, 2009 Okay, FINE.
I had some sugar today.
First, before you judge me, I think you should know that I am stuck in freaking work training, and if I didn’t have wicked internet paranoia, I’d write all about the human I experienced today who was basically all of my pet peeves (a loud chewing, cliche-spitting, arrogant, leg-shaking and therefore table shaking, shusher (SHHHHH!!!!) who said “AHHHH!” after every sip of liquid
