Non monogamy note in --
I told Jacob the other night that he could sleep with people other than me. He didn’t seem very into the idea, which is fine. Whatever he wants to do. I was hoping he would say I could too… Not t...
Every time I use Facebook, the angry feminist in me comes out. So much rage-inducing crap. Don’t make me a stereotype, people. Actually I read something on this site today that really annoyed me ...
Martian in a sea of Earthlings in --
Is there such a thing as the “almost-five-year itch?” I’m feeling it. I wish I wasn’t. I just want to buy a plane ticket and run away for awhile. I am not made to be what I chose to be. I keep th...
education dilemma* in --
I decided last night that I’ve had enough. I just cannot deal with my education teachers any longer. I cannot deal with the terrible education program. I booked an appointment with my advisor, bu...
this wasn't supposed to happen... in --
I’m this close to dropping out. I’m just done. DONE.
I should preface this by saying that I don’t think monogamy is bad. In fact, it’s a good thing to lots of people! I’ve been noticing some changes lately since I’ve weaned my youngest and I’m not...
I’ve been listening to these things a lot lately: “Ashamed” - Deer Tick “Halah” - Mazzy Star “Star Witness” - Neko Case “Easy Living” - Miranda Lambert “Birmingham” - Shovels and Rope “Your Ghos...
and I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away in --
Hi! This is me procrastinating! I have two papers, a big project, and a giant project, and a bunch of other smaller things all due within the next week, and I’m being oh-so-smart about it and pre...
I can't even. in --
I’m SO ANGRY at my methods teacher (social studies education class that I have to take). I had to write a paper analyzing a textbook that my mentor teacher uses. My mentor teacher doesn’t use a t...
Cannon's progress in --
Guys! Cannon’s teacher sent a report of Cannon’s IEP progress evaluation and he’s made “significant improvement” in two things, and “met goals” in the other. I’m so happy!
do I bother to read Facebook news comments? I never learn, and I am always enraged by ignorance. It makes my stomach drop sometimes how awful people can be. Also, a comment from our babysitter ha...
I fully enjoyed watching Bernie Sanders in the debates. FEELTHEBERN I had a pretty crappy day, so that was cool. I got my first post-partum period today too. The weird thing is the last period I ...
I suppose I have some time to update! I always have a lot to say, but I’m so scatterbrained from fatigue and having so much to remember all the time that I can’t think of what I wanted to write a...
I keep meaning to come here and write, but my days are completely filled with things to do, and kids and husband to love. I’m home from my internship today because poor Cannonbug has a fever. I’v...
Well I suppose I should write about our trip, although I’m sick so I’m not sure how much stuff I will decide to cram into one entry. We’ve been back since Tuesday morning (at like 1am) and I have...
We are here! Gettin’ hitched Saturday. Details to come!
kid update in --
Here is what my kids are doing: Cannon has been going to pre-school at a special education building in our district. He’s been riding the bus to and from school and he doesn’t cry and loves going...
Cannon turned three yesterday. He is riding the bus to and from school, and he doesn’t mind it. He’s such a big boy. Where has the time gone! He got lots of new Thomas trains for his birthday. :)...
It’s difficult for someone like me to choose stability. I choose to be stable everyday, and it’s always a battle. People like me, who grow up with not-so-stable circumstances learn to be unstable...
I’m laying on the bed in my bedroom. It’s almost 8pm and the light is fading, but it’s still very bright outside and I’m listening to the cicadas. It’s calming. It also makes me sad because it r...
I can’t get this effing K-pop song out of my head (I think it’s called “gee” by Girls Generation). I listened to it a lot like six years ago. Where has the time gone! I’m not halfway to 26, am I?...
I’ve been quite busy. My summer semester ended. I met with the teacher that I’m going to be student teaching with this year. He’s nice, but he didn’t laugh at my jokes. It may very well be a long...
Cannon is believed to be on the autism spectrum. He had his evaluation today and he is too young to make an accurate diagnosis but they gave us a couple of books and a report to give to his schoo...
differentiating instruction in --
And they said teaching was “easy.” LOL I don’t know who thinks teaching is easy, but they need to be thrown into a classroom and plan lessons and stuff. Anyway, Lorelei turns one year old tomorro...
Our house is still a big mess but I’m really glad we have this house. Our last house was so much smaller, it made me so stressed all the time. Having more room and bigger rooms in this house just...
