This morning, I managed to get three quarters of the way to one of my schools before realizing that I never actually went back to the office last week to get the files I needed for this school. So I fought my way through traffic, slushy streets and unplowed parking lots to get to my office and get my files, only to finally make it to my school and ( Read more... )

Well, two weeks after the fact, it is high past time that I posted about my cottage weekend! It was fantastic, which is no less than I expected. Friday the 1st I picked up Lynn, Ilana and Gabe, and after a brief stop at Metro to pick up discounted Halloween candy, we were on our way. Even with that stop and a stop for lunch, the trip only took ( Read more... )

I think I'm still recovering from last night's food hangover. Brad and I did our Thanksgiving dinner yesterday; we always do it on the Sunday even though Monday is technically the holiday, because I can't imagine doing all that work and eating such a big meal and then having to get up and go to work the next day. No thank you! So we had our turkey ( Read more... )

I have to tell you guys about the craziness that was the Neil Gaiman book signing on Tuesday! First of all, the event was supposed to start at 6:30, so Erin and I agreed to meet up at 6. I took the TTC and it didn't take me as long to get there as I expected, but when I got there at 5:30, there was already a line halfway down the block to get in. I ( Read more... )

Hiiii friends. Sorry I've fallen off the LJ wagon again. I just feel like there hasn't been much going on that was worth writing about. Since my last entry, the following has happened ( Read more... )

Wooooooooooo! I have survived this ridiculous school year! My boss made a comment to us at our end-of-year staff meeting on Thursday about surviving the year, and honestly, survived really is the right word for it. This was a rough year all around, for almost everyone I talked to, and I am really glad to see it over and done with. Here's hoping for ( Read more... )

Since work readjusted their internet filters and I can now access livejournal again, I thought I'd give you guys a quick update. (Not that I usually have any actual time to go on lj when I'm at work, but right now I need to do a quick vent/get things out of my head, so here I am.)

First, let me be ( explicit about my period! )

Bad me, bad. Clearly it's been several weeks since I've posted again. Honestly, I feel both like not a whole lot has been going on and like I've been really busy, so how both are possible in the same time frame is anyone's guess. Work has certainly been quite busy, as we're getting into that time of year in which everyone wants all of my ( Read more... )

Hello friends! It's a very lazy Sunday morning, so now seemed like a good time to write an entry. And I'm still going to call it morning, even though it's after noon, because it still feels like 11:30. Daylight savings totally screwed me up this time, because Brad and I stayed up late watching a movie last night, so I didn't get to bed till after 1 ( Read more... )

Holy crap, this week has been the longest week ever. I don't even know how it was all the same week. Every single day, I could not believe that it wasn't later in the week than it was. I swear, it should have been Friday by Tuesday, and weeks like that just kind of suck ( Read more... )
