Strange that I can forget how my own house smells in just nine days. Now I have to readjust; to the smell, to the speed of my car and my internet, to the pattern of my life. Maybe someday this will be the vacation, and the reality I adjust to will be the smell of someone else's house. But for now, my little thugs need...

I went to my very first Comic Con today, and I have to say I was the most attractive woman there. I have surmised that you can essentially find these specific types of people at Comic Cons:
-Nerds
-Mall Punks, and
-(my personal favorites to laugh at) Dress-Up Nerds
All of these will either:
-Smell like pee,
-Smell like cheese, or
-Smell like cheese made...

Have you been to gamer cons? Honestly, I refuse to believe that comic cons are worse. There are girls at comic cons. Seriously.
Last night for dinner I had hush puppies, fried green tomatoes, corn bread, collard greens, mashed potatoes and gravy, buttermilk fried chicken, all topped off with the best coconut cake in the universe, and accompanied by a sweet and tart mojito. I do know how to treat myself well.

I have the kind you get if you're already had them, more ominously known as, "shingles."
I went to see Inside Man yesterday. It was really great. Even though I had it figured out from the very beginning, it was still a thoroughly entertaining ride. It was clever and witty, and both Denzel Washington and Clive Owen are just so good at what they do. Spike Lee is generally a little too wanky and preachy for my tastes, but he kept...

For the first time in seventeen years, spring break means I don't have to work. Thank fuck. I'm heading for the coast.

Welcome back

I now know six ways to break a choke hold. Seven, if you count using a baseball bat. You can't tell me that doesn't make me way cooler.
adjunct:
I can't think of many things that can't be accomplished with a baseball bat.
shad:
That strikes me as a valuable thing to know. This is from your conflict management course, then? Wouldn't it be better to know how to apply a choke hold that can't be broken, or some such? Sort of passive aggressive conflict management. Go ahead, choke-hold me. I'll break out of it, and then won't you feel all futile and stuff.
I'm up way too early. I slept for shit. I woke up about every twenty minutes between 2:30 and 5:30, making it impossible to dream.Today I have Crisis Prevention and Intervention training, which means I guess I'll be trained to break up the next face stabbing we have at school. At least I'll be done by 2:30, and I can come home and take a...

I'm commiserating right now. I tried to drive from Ithaca to Philly last night, but aborted that attempt around 1 am while staring up a large, icy hill. Then I tried again at 6:30 am and unfortunately succeeded, and am now suffering through a day at the office.
I haven't stabbed anybody in the face yet today, but I certainly want to.

I totally missed St Patrick's day. I didn't know till it was over.
About the twitch ... I think it's strange that greens and so on might fix it since that's when it seems to have started ... .on a recent health kick where I decided to eat more greens and vegetables. My body is rebelling and it wants meat and crap

This morning I got up early because I'm supposed to go to a full day of Conflict Management Training. So not looking forward to it, but I guess it's required for everyone who works with 'at risk' students.
