« Previous Entriesand I call myself an educational professional
Wednesday, October 1st, 2008Well, I did slightly better on my Hannah Montana quiz than Lauren, Whitney and I did on our Jonas Brothers quiz. But still, I’m pretty sure all chances of getting myself or my children into an Ivy League school are now out the window. If only I’d applied myself more. Mom, Dad, I’m sorry. […]
got this one from Lisa
Monday, September 29th, 2008This is an email I just got from my friend Lisa. I’m not sure I trust (ALL) my fellow Americans more than the people at AIG or in Washington, but I sure wouldn’t argue with anybody giving me that much money. Y’all think we can make it happen? Nah, me neither.
Subject:The AIG solution
I’m against the […]
Thanks, Danielle!
Friday, September 26th, 2008I had fun with this, but if you don’t like it, blame Danielle. It’s not like you can do anything to her. She lives way over yonder on the other side of the world. It’s SPRING there, even. And it’s not like you can just go into SPRING and get her. It’s a whole other […]
an open letter to Ira David Wood III
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008Dear Ira David Wood III,
Did I get it right? I can never remember if it’s Ira David or David Ira, and last night at the audition, when you introduced yourself as David Wood, well that just threw me off completely. I do apologize about never getting your name right. That must be frustrating for you. […]
audition update
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008First of all, thanks for all the well-wishes and warm fuzzies. The audition was…meh…ok. It wasn’t awful. I wouldn’t even call it bad, really, but I felt like I’d sung better every time I rehearsed it than I did for the audition. It was funny (not so much funny haha, but more like funny what […]
writer’s block
Thursday, September 11th, 2008You may have noticed that sometimes I disappear for a while, and then I come back claiming that I’ve been busy or that nothing interesting has happened, and while it may be true that I’ve been busy, I rarely fail to write for lack of interesting material. The inside of my head is a constant […]
16-year-old me wants to hang on your wall
Friday, August 22nd, 2008Might I interest anyone in a circa 1996 sports photo of me? The reason I ask is because I’ve just now, today, over a month after we moved, gotten around to unpacking the last of the boxes lurking in my bedroom. Their contents consist mainly of office supplies, random tchotchkes and things I’ve had packed […]
on the purchase and return method of product procurement
Wednesday, August 20th, 2008Alright. We’ve established that I’m weird, right? Ok then, so sometimes I do things without even realizing that other people don’t do them that way. For example, you go to Target, you see something you like, you buy it, you take it home, you look at it for a few weeks, you decide you don’t […]
Onward Hoe! Expansion Project
Tuesday, August 19th, 2008So…suddenly I have two weeks off, and my roommate, Lauren, suggested that we spend this time renovating Onward Hoe! “What a good idea!” said I, and we began to think of possible additions to the site. I’m not going to give away all the secrets just yet, but I want you, friends and faithful fans, […]
quasi-unemployed
Tuesday, August 19th, 2008So I got quasi-fired. Not to worry, though. I’ll be back at it in a couple of weeks, but what had happened was that I was going to teach a field trip class for these two last weeks of inter-semester vacation, and we didn’t have enough students to justify having two teachers there. And since […]
