I would like a good book to read, a massage, a bellini daiquiri, my best friends near me, a girlie slumber party (so we can stay up late talking about boys and girls and sex, while we eat sweet and salty snacks and get drunk, and maybe even have a pillow fight).
It snowed more last night and is still snowing this morning. I just got out of bed at 10, that is unusually late for me, but oh so nice to feel well rested.
I have decided that feeling lonely when someone is less than ten feet away from you is the worst. On the other hand, knowing that someone who is far away from you... Read More
I am home. The holiday at my mother-in-law's went well. My family seemed to be well hidden under their rock (a good thing) It was so very lovely to arrive back at mi casa.... even with two feet of snow on the ground. It was a long drive home, blowing snow and icy roads and idiot drivers who knew how to handle neither of the... Read More
hey don't feel too bad....dave and i came home to discover that we had been burglarized. lost like 2k worth of electronics. we don't even have a fuckin' tv anymore.
Holidays make me understand why Louisiana has drive-thru daiquiri shacks; the first Thanksgiving I lived there, I laughed to see a line of cars waiting in the line for frozen adult beverages. Now I wish that Florida had such convenient anesthesia available during the holiday season. But, it is always fun to sit with my 'step-daughter', Andrea, and her partner, Beth, and guess which tragic... Read More
I had a high school student ask me if I have a younger, unmarried sister, who happens to look like me. I thought that was a pretty clever way for a girl to hit on her English teacher.
I am headed back to work today. Only three days this week before we begin the holiday break. I am holding out the hope that my students will manage to behave themselves and be angelic for these three days (is that too much to ask?....don't say it...I know the answer). We are headed to Florida at the end of the week, to stay a week...I... Read More
Ah yes, the ties that bind can also choke..I know this well. You are brave as well as beautiful. Come back to us safe and sound. The worst part about family arguments and disolutions is that there isn't any "make-up sex"...I'll be thinking of you...
Why am I awake at 6:15 on Sunday morning? The sleep gods are cruel sometimes. I woke up having a nightmare about drowning in a lake. The water was clear but full of plants, just me drowning, no boat, no others. I was struggling to get to the surface, tangled in the plants. I hate nightmares; I do not have them often, but they always... Read More
Nightmares are your fears playing a practical joke on you...Mine are about going to jail...wonder what that says about me...? Well it's Monday now and it's my turn to be up way early...is this a game..did you tag me..??? Actually I'm off to work...hopefully your sleep was more satisfying last night...
Still not feeling 100% better, though I am told my voice sounds sexy right now...smiles
It is -1 this morning, with a wind chill of -20 (kinda cold-- I will be staying indoors today). I need to clean house. I feel like being lazy and ignoring it though, but I won't because it has to be done sooner or later (and the cats aren't doing... Read More
Well arent' you lucky to have the sexy cold. I woke up this morning with no voice at all and when it returned it sounded like a man. Not sexy at all.
My dogs and cats don't clean either, nor do the kids. Damn damn. Can't a woman just be sick at home and not have to worry about all of the other crap?
Get well soon dear.

My best friend sent me a text last night as I was falling asleep to tell me that she is engaged. She is now engaged to the most wonderful man, who absolutely adores her. They are so ridiculously in love and have been together for six years. We sent texts back and forth and I called her, she sent a pic of her ring, we... Read More
That is such a great post. You are very sweet.
Love and the fairy tale dream are important. Those captured moments give us a lot of the stories of our lives.

And so much for thinking I was all better.... terrible cough today, went to urgent care (at the advice of my personal medical expert, kisses). I have strep.; why couldn't the middle schoolers have just given me cooties? The Dr. advised I stay home the next couple of days (I would be bored and isn't it only right that I go to school and lick... Read More
