Today was my second-to-last session with my adult statistics student, and I am so relieved. She’s going to pass the class, I just know it, but barely. That’s frustrating. It is also frustrating w...

I’m not sure when it happened, but I’m glad to see that we can now make entries friends only instead of having to save them to a separate book. I love the weekends. The weather today was pretty c...

I met with a new student tonight. I’m tutoring him in algebra 2 (it’s my favorite subject to tutor and it seems to be the one people want help in the most). From the way his mom described him in ...

Perhaps writing a day behind is the best option, since I can’t seem to write on time anymore. I love Thursdays anymore. Right now it’s my only weekday off from tutoring. Once again I stayed up wa...

And I don’t even know what happened to September. I had a client meeting today. Those aren’t too common, maybe once a quarter or so. I enjoy going to them, since clients are the entire point of m...

Got a call from C today just as I was leaving to study that G had fallen at daycare and split open his nose (it was pretty bad, I could tell from pics that he was going to need stitches), so that...

It’s busy season at work, at least until mid-October. Then it’s a different kind of busy season for me due to a specific client. That will last until year-end, and then all the fun year-end work ...

I’ve started lifting regularly at the gym and I can already feel a difference in my strength. I don’t know why I spent so many years wasting time on the cardio machines when this feels so much be...

Last night I discovered what may be the last chatroom on earth. It’s full of actuaries, which makes it kind of awesome (at least to me). I was on it until midnight last night and tonight. Super c...

Sigh. I’m not good at remembering the exciting life I’m not having.

You know what I love about Thursdays? Everything. I’m sorry I’ve fallen behind. Although, I don’t think there is anyone here to recognize it.

I need to get caught up. The problem it, really no one around here is writing except for me, or so it feels, and so it’s really lonely.

I stopped by Target tonight after tutoring and bought this… Since tomorrow is G’s birthday and C already got him a tricycle. Do you know how difficult those things are to assemble?

Mondays aren’t so bad, but this one was LONG. I had a surprisingly productive day at work and billed almost nothing to general admin (typically I bill about an hour or so a day, maybe two). After...

C and I ended up taking the neighbors up on their offer to come over for beers. They live directly across the street from us so we were able to walk back and forth to get refills (maybe that’s te...

I may have slept in until 2:00 today. That’s just a little bit insane, but given how tired I was last night, it felt SO good. I made up for my laziness by going to the gym and doing squats, bench...

Okay, so it turns out that corn mazes are actually a lot of fun. But more on that later. I worked all day (I was supposed to leave early, but I had some reports going out and needed to stick arou...

I know everyone says this, but I can’t BELIEVE how quickly the weeks go by sometimes. Is that a side effect of age, or am I really that busy? We have a lot going on at work right now. Legislation...

I’d like to have something meaningful to say, but today went something like this: work, rush home, quickly stuff face, race to tutoring, leave at 7:30, go to gym, come home, watch an episode of C...

As I’ve mentioned multiple times, I am tutoring math (and statistics) now in the evenings. My weekly student, M, is a bright sophomore. She just needs some help with reassurance. But really, she ...

Monday…hm… I wish I weren’t so far behind. The weather has been cooling down and for some reason, that makes me not hate Mondays so much. I feel like such an integrated adult when I leave for wor...

The weekend never lasts as long as I want it to.

Let’s see. There’s a lot to catch up on here. We went apple picking today, the three of us (C, G, and me). G did most of the picking, which made it a somewhat lengthy endeavor. I thought that was...

Happy Friday, and happy payday! Tonight we took G to the Blue Jackets fan night, which was free, and it ended up being a lot more fun than I was expecting. They had a bouncy house for kids, and w...

Thursdsays are always the longest. Also, is anyone out there?
