It's 35, I've got a boy of my own now...

For some reason, I thought that when Obama took office that congressional Republicans might be more interested in working for the betterment of our country than in Daffy Duck style "mine, mine, gimme, gimme" politics.

1...2...1,2,34

Another day of school, another day closer to winter break, and summer vacation, and dealing with my son in high school, and retirement. Yes, another cheerful post for your amusement. Til something better comes.

Rolling Rock

Got a good review from my vice principal today. She gave me much credit for keeping the class engaged and for being a great storyteller. Maybe I am cut out for this business.

32 flavors and then some

Great national anthem by J-Hud + Ben having a great game + a 100 yard interception + Bruce's kickin' halftime show + Santonio stepping up = the best frakkin' Super Bowl ever!

Baskin-Robbins vs. Ben and Jerry's

Another Saturday, another trip to Winder. Ian had fun on his lesson, but he was not quite at his best this afternoon. Super Bowl's tomorrow; Cardinals vs. my Steelers. Go Pittsburgh!

30 Days of Night (and days!)

We were on extreme conservative procedures at school today, which meant no students could go out of their classrooms. Naturally, the kids were antsy, but not as antsy as me.

Nowhere near 29 Palms, CA

So, we're hoping to have another child. It's been great having the wee one around the house, but maybe it's time for him to have a little bro now.

28 days later

I'm so tired lately. I just can't get to sleep at night, and the Buddy is climbing into bed with us in the middle of the night. Zzzzzzzzzzz...

Three cubed

How can a day seem to move so slowly when I am teaching, yet when I look at the calendar, almost a month has gone by? Yoiks!

Alphabetically speaking

Another big class day! Everyone forgot good hygene; I just kept languishing merrily, not obfuscating potential quarrels. Rather, stopped temptation using vocal warnings. Xerxes! You zygotes.

Got a quarter?

I installed Vista over the holidays, and it's been giving me fits. Right now my sound card is nonfunctional. I may have to buy another one.

Last time on 24...

Kind of a lazy Saturday. We took Ian horseback riding in Winder, Kat went shopping, and I cleaned up the house a bit. Meh.

The number 23

What a week. New President, more school, Ian's making progress in Pre-K, and I made chicken pepper steak. Now on to the weekend.

Me and my loaded 22

Trust my self-imposed restriction to inspire me to write longer posts. Maybe I should write some stuff for my MySpace blog sometime.

Post-Inaugural Post

I put a post on the inauguration up at Four Freedoms. I would have put it here, but, well, you know.
