I was walking across the parking lot to the grocery store today when a woman came up to me and asked for help. I've had this happen in my dance studio parking lot, and I've given a few dollars away without concern, as the people seemed to truly need the help ( Read more... )

I started thinking about formative experiences today. Jar and I were talking about buying a new bedspread, since our current one is starting to issue fuzz, and I was struck by a memory of my parents' first bedspread. It was this somewhat nasty brown color with flowers, and it was far too thin to really do much good. (In hindsight, I'm guessing that ( Read more... )

This journal seems to have been sadly neglected. Maybe it's time to trim the weeds that have formed a jungle and start posting again...

Yesterday I drove down to Santa Cruz for my six month hair appointment and wandered around the downtown area afterward. I also spent some time watching "Planet Earth" with friends. Jar treated me to pool and dessert that evening.

I adore my friends, and it's when I am with them that I feel I can be my truest self. (Jar is of course a part of this intimate grouping, but I don't see my friends quite as often). This past Saturday a dear friend of mine and I met up at TGI Friday's for some pre-move out of the country gal time. I had this fabulous double-layer quesadilla with ( Read more... )

Wrestlemania 23 was beyond awesome!!!!!

I loved spending it with hellhoundfiat, thefunkmonkey, and a number of people who I wish were in my family *sigh*

Thank you again, and I love you guys!!!! Viva Concord!

Someone just made a personal attack on my character, accusing me of questioning a student on a relationship that SHE had with a student. The person who accused me felt that he/she was a good judge of character. I find it so disturbing that this person would trust the word of a student over mine, and furthermore, question my very morality. I only ( Read more... )
