Yesterday I had my first protest. It wasn’t the stand on the street yelling kind of protest, but the silent hold-my-sign-along-with-a-group-of-others-so-please-notice-us kind of protest. It was at the Cupertino School Board meeting; currently we are negotiating a new contract. The contract will hopefully include some cost of living adjustments and salary increases, being that most Read More
Well, some of the things I imported on my MT Blacklist basically blacklisted everything. I called my trusty resident geek to the job and I’m happy to say commenting is possible again! Huzzah!
I hate mornings. Only on weekdays. For some reason, I get up early on Saturdays quite naturally very often. It’s the other days of the week where I’m tired and mildly delirious and have to go to work and I just don’t get up well.

I know, she looks a lot like Henson, but she’s actually smaller and is a girl and has one blue eye (in addition to her other brown eye, of course).

I love commercial vehicles that have those signs on the back that say “How’s My Driving? 1-800-PLEASE-DONT-COMPLAIN.” Or something like that… I was driving behind one today. It was a Schwann’s Truck.

It’s rough that I see my family 1-2 times a year and that they are always crazy whirlwind events. Read More
Despite my being way too busy this year, I was able to finish off a pretty decent volleyball season. I’m looking for another team to play on since it’s my favorite form of exercise! This was the first year my team played in the advanced league and we did quite well! We were in 3rd/4th Read More
Well, my volleyball team has been practicing on Sundays and playing games on Monday nights. We’ve done fairly well this season and have made it into the playoffs. We’ve been playing a 6-2 rotation with me setting half of the time. I feel a lot of the time like our team takes a full game Read More
Yes! This weekend has ruled! On Tuesday, we had lots of fun events at school including the student vs. staff volleyball game and the turkey trot (kids race the 880). Those are loads of fun and it’s fun to send the students off for a good long break. Not to mention sending MYSELF off to Read More
Every now and then I look down at my hands and go, “Ahhh!” Reason is, my mom and I have the SAME EXACT HANDS. Seriously, it’s spooky how much they look alike. Sometimes, when I look down, my brain actually thinks they ARE my mom’s hands for a moment. Yeah… I know… REALLY CREEPY!
