Okay, I contemplated doing this weeks ago when ( Read more... )

Some days are worse than others.
Today was down there.  Definitely near the bottom of  the list.
I'm going home, to bed.  Hoping tomorrow's a better one.

Easter Break can't come soon enough.

Sleep, sleep, glorious sleep. . . . 
          The sweet sonorous spasm of oblivion. 

Fun last night was had, I hope, by all.

Unfortunately, some people cancelled on us, but we had fun anyway last night.  I headed into Old City right after work, and did a beautiful job parking on Market Street.  From there I headed to a coffee shop on Strawberry, where I waited until

I'm sick, yet again.  How, how, how, is this possible ( Read more... )

Requiem aeternum dona ei, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei

Well, Gygax is dead.

It seems like an appropriate time to reflect on all things D&D.

Oddly, D&D isn't a huge part of my life, but I always think of it as a defining one.  For one thing, it's useful to shock people with.  Another teacher, who has tattooes and multiple piercings, and was ( Read more... )

It is March, and I think when I stepped out of the house this morning, I could feel a change in the wind.  Maybe I'm imagining it, maybe it was just the fact that the sun was shining and my headache is letting up a bit, or maybe it really is going to be spring someday.  But I definitely felt a lightness.

Right now I'm at Presto, again, with

One of my kids insisted that today is "leap day."  I never heard that before.  But anyway, seeing as this only comes once every 4 years, I figured I really should post today.

Nothing very exciting.  School.  Drove to Wilmington & had tea at Presto.  I'm becoming fonder of Presto.  At first, I felt that it was a showy upstart, and inauthentic.  But ( Read more... )

As you can see, I'm completely inspired with title this week.

The triple-meds are having some effect, though not as great as might be hoped for such a sizeable medical bill.  However, I made it, haltingly, through the day.  Then, I determined to drag myself out tonight to the bookstore, to talk to people and do some work.  However, evidently, since ( Read more... )

I guess it has to be Monday sometimes.  Well, 1/7th of the time, to be precise.  Seeing as how the world started on a Monday, there's no way for there not to be at least as many Mondays as other days, right?

Actually, I've never had a big problem with Monday. It's just, 8 days is alot to be coughing in a row.  And the whole coughing thing ruined ( Read more... )

Snowday!!!  We cancelled school in advance for today, because of the forecast, so I have a free day!
On the other hand, I am extremely sick.  I've been dragging myself to school, because with the threats and police and everything, I didn't think I should leave the kids with a sub.  But I really shouldn't have been there. Although I guess you could ( Read more... )
