"Wicked Witch of Cincinnati pulled out her old broom, dusted off the spiders and cobwebs and used it to fly on down to Cleveland for the weekend 'cause she thought it would be time to do some freakin'. And it'd been so long since she didn't feel bad - not spending all her time making people feel sad. No more: she's made up her mind. Put on that old dress and get herself looking real fine. All up in the club drinking Hennessey. Oh my, what a mess, I must confess that ..." (by Bob Schneider)
You know what I love?
Having someone require a meeting for approval for this one huge thing you are striving to accomplish in life for which you have to spend a lot of time preparing and specially set aside time out of your completely crazy week to attend ... only to wait for an hour and a half outside of their locked office and have them never show.
That's just the best!

My CD burner has stopped working on my computer ... and I think I might have a nervous breakdown.
No, not really. I'm not THAT insane. It's just really annoying.
Everything else on my computer works fine and dandy. Anybody have any insights on how to fix the issue?
I'm a lost ball in the tall weeds.

I just made the best sandwich EVER!
Seriously ... truly epic.
Just thought I should commemorate this moment somehow.

I guess life does have some sort of crazy, innate balance.
One of the best weekends I have had in a while followed by the absolute worst Monday ... scratch that ... DAY in general that I have had in a very, very long time.

Huh - I never knew until today that it was Benjamin Franklin who was quoted as first saying, "Honesty is the best policy."
I'll be sure to use that one on my kids. (Note: When I say "my kids," I really mean "my students" ... I, myself, have no biological rugrats ... well ... not yet, anyhow.)
While I do believe Mr. Franklin had a great idea ... nay ... philosophy in his statement, I tend to prefer Winnie-the-Pooh and Tori Amos.
"A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference." - W. Pooh
"The sexiest thing is trust." - Tori Amos

Allergies - 1, Me - 0
And I would really appreciate it if they would just disappear as quickly as they came.
It's the end of the 5th 6-weeks this Friday, making this week the craziest of the past two months by way of teaching ... and my dad and Karen are coming into town this weekend.
Plus, HELLO, Elton John is on Friday! I simply MUST be at my best by then.

Every once in a while it hits me like a ton of bricks ... I have an AMAZING life!!
Really and truly.
Sometimes it's difficult to remember every minute of every day when it is something that has become so familiar.
Thank you, Powers That Be. :)
