I know this is a strange entry…and is perhaps a bit immodest. But, people have told me that their favorite part of my blog is my honesty. So…I’m being brutally honest. When you eat asparagus, your pee stinks. Okay, maybe not your pee, since only 50% of the population has the pleasure of this phenomenon. Read More
It’s one of those ones where you can’t breathe and your nose is runny and your throat hurts so bad that swallowing is painful so you can only eat liquidy things like soup. And your brain is acting kind of foggy so when people talk to you you kind of look at them like, “What?” Read More
You absolutely have to see the movie American Splendor. It’s one of the best flicks I’ve seen in a long time. I won’t go on about it. Just take my word for it, get to a theater and watch it. Even if you have to drive 260 miles and look like a “neurd!”
Well, today I did it. At about 5:00 I decided that I would not bring any work home with me tonight. So, I didn’t. And guess what has come of it? I finally caught the stupid eel in my Animal Crossing game! What a success! Sometimes I wish that I was achieving greater things. Things Read More
Well, Josh and I ripped my car apart, yet again, today to see if we could find my ring. It’s nowhere to be found in there. I had myself wedged places where no person should be in a car, dangling a little flashlight hoping to see a sparkle of gold. No such luck. I have Read More

Today was the first day of school at Hyde. Talk about craziness! Several things didn’t go as smoothly as planned. Students were given their second semester schedules. I was given ten classes instead of five. Students didn’t know where they were going. Luckily, we have a really great staff that really pulls together to help Read More
First, I have a confession to make. Earlier, I posted that I would be starting a discussion on Angela’s Ashes soon. So, I’m actually only on page 50. *Steph hears Neal say “Grrrr.”* I got sidetracked reading books for seven year olds (the entire Judy Moody series, a good deal of Junie B. Jones, Pocahontas, Read More
Today I understood some things about motherhood that I haven’t connected with before. I’m not actually a mother (I guess I kind of am, but I haven’t ever met either of my children because they miscarried while I was pregnant). But, while being a nanny has it’s boring days, it also has it’s wonderful special Read More
