Moving on and settling down…all at once
Back to School Never Felt So GoodPosted by beth on August 17, 2009
This is the kind of first week back to work I can handle, y’all, and I’ve only been off for a week, although it feels like a lot longer what with all the driving.
I’m sure my feelings stem largely from the fact that I know I’m on my way out. I don’t have to gear [...]
Online Dating Lesson #1: Making the IntroductionPosted by beth on June 1, 2009
Well, since the Italian Lesson posts don’t seem to be very interesting to anyone (myself included), and the online dating posts are quite popular, and since I want to meet the needs of my readership, I’m going to hold off on the Italian Lessons until I start learning to say more entertaining things. So when, [...]
one more dawn…one more day…Posted by beth on March 5, 2008
ONE!! DAY!! MOOOOOOOOOOOORE!!! Sorry. That was just a little Les Miserables reference for all you musical geeks out there. Oh, and it’s Bethday tomorrow. Hug me.
I keep wanting to post some insightful, poignant musing about growing older and everything I’ve learned over the past year, but nothing’s coming out. Maybe tomorrow. For now, let’s just [...]
WHEW!Posted by beth on December 13, 2007
Y’all. This has seriously been the longest semester of my life. BUT IT’S OVER NOW!!!! Well, almost. I have to go into the office tomorrow for roughly one hour to finish up some paperwork, but after that, IT’LL BE OVER!!!! And then I’ll be unemployed for about three weeks. Sigh. Three whole weeks of sweet, [...]
keeping the dream alive sans dairyPosted by beth on November 30, 2007
Oh friends, last night I dreamed that I had detention. Now, detention was held in what seemed to be a summer camp arts-and-crafts cabin, and there was no real reason for me to go, but I kept going anyway because Matt Hagaman also had detention. And now that I think about it, we are the [...]
for WhitneyPosted by beth on November 15, 2007
I was telling Whitney this story earlier, and she requested that I post it for you all. So here it is in Reader’s Digest Condensed version.
When I told one of my students yesterday that the class had been canceled, she was very upset with me. Yes, me personally. She said (and this is a direct [...]
Don’t come a-knockin’ if the minivan’s a-rockin’.Posted by beth on November 14, 2007
As I was on my way to class this evening, I got behind a minivan with some pretty amazing hydraulic action going on. It was quite amusing. I mean, this just doesn’t seem to fit, does it? A bumpin’ minivan? Seriously? It’s just not the kind of ride that one would normally think to pimp [...]
craptacularPosted by beth on November 1, 2007
Well, this has pretty much been the worst week ever. I can’t go into too many details because they aren’t mine to share, but work has just been insane, and much to my relief, we’ve decided to close my GED classes early. They were supposed to go through December 12, but we’re going to shut [...]
body bitsPosted by beth on October 9, 2007
The building where I have my afternoon classes is also the building where they teach the nursing assistant classes, so a couple of the classrooms on my hall are equipped with hospital beds and such for the students to practice helping each other get up and down, use bedpans, sit up, eat, roll over, etc. [...]
new soulmatePosted by beth on September 19, 2007
I’m not sure how many soulmates one person is allowed to have, but I have many. And I know most people think of a soulmate in a romantical sense, but mine are all platonic friend-types. I’ve got cross-generational ones, man ones, woman ones, probably even a few animal ones. I think the connection I feel [...]
