Boring

I am so, so boring. I haven't been blogging much because there really isn't much to talk about, which I guess is a good thing, right? I'm just incredibly busy. My schedule looks like this:

Monday: Class
Tuesday: Work out with trainer, Small Group
Wednesday: Practicum
Thursday: Work late to catch up, or Title I meetings
Friday: Go home and go to bed early
Saturday & Sunday: Laundry, cleaning, grocery shopping, lesson plans, homework, football, socializing

So there's really not much to say. Ryan took me to the Blackhawks game last night, which was pretty cool. We had great seats. But all his talk about trophy wives and the Blackhawks girls got old quickly. Tonight I realized that he is Jack Donaghy from 30 Rock. The similarities are frightening. That would explain why I spend so much time feeling like punching him in the face.

I got a Halloween card in the mail today from Sarah. It made me really happy.

The crossing guards were all laid off, so now I'm the new crossing guard. Not cool. I almost got run over yesterday because people blow the stop sign on my corner all the time. I asked the assistant principal about the chances of me getting a stop sign to hold like he has and the crossing guards had, and he said slim to none. But he has a neon vest I could wear. Fabulous. Some punk girl in 4th grade stole my classroom keys off my desk at the end of the day. And that was after I was telling her teacher how well-behaved she'd been today.

I've been reading "Shake Dem Halloween Bones" to every class, and now the whole school is singing it. It's pretty awesome. I love Pre-K kids and 6th graders so much. Isn't that weird?

Ok, so now you see, I really am boring. But I guess that's better than drama, right?

I win the boring contest, I think, sadly. Among the highlights of my week were extensive discussions of the correct way to compute a standard deviation and a 17 hour work day spent implementing said correct computation. Oh, and then there was the day I went to bed at 5, napped til 7, ate dinner, and then went back to bed at 8. Wow, I might be chronically fatigued. :-P

Something's gotta give, right?!

Why I Love Bust Magazine (and you should, too)

Since I am finally done with Practicum I and only have one project left to finish for my Reading and Language Theory class, I decided to spend the evening relaxing with the latest issue of my favorite magazine, Bust . In this issue, I read about: Fat women on reality shows A new version of roller derby called Derby Lite A global O that will be occurring on December 21-22 Recipes for finger foods to serve at holiday parties How to make your own yarn Asheville, NC (now I want to move there even more...) Amy Poehler's views on feminism Divorce ranches in Nevada from the 1930's through the 1960's (it used to be really hard to get a divorce, and Nevada had laws that made it super easy) Homemade Christmas gift ideas A guide to "handling some of life's major milestones- marriage, childbirth, and death- with a DIY frame of mind" The monthly "One-handed read" column And of course, there are the fashion and beauty sections. Also, book, movie, and music revie

I got a little out of control...

I started my end of the year celebration a day early with margaritas at Lalo's. Unfortunately, since I don't drink very often, they affected me pretty quickly. I knocked my fork onto the sidewalk. Nancy (with her 80's hair) pretended not to know me. Nina gave me this look. Good times, good times. 40 more minutes of school, and then I am FREE!!!!!

Fall!

Okay, I’ll admit it.  I’m excited for fall.  I LOVE fall.  Things I’m looking forward to: Sweaters and hoodies Cinnamon candles  Leaves crunching under your feet Carving pumpkins and toasting the seeds (that I will give as gifts because I don’t actually like them) Going to the apple orchard with my mom… apple donuts and apple ciders slushees… Scary movies Watching my Charlie Brown DVDs Starting school!  I swear, September always flies by in an adrenaline-filled haze… The smell of burning leaves Football!!! Making apple pie (that will most likely be given as a gift because I’ll be dieting) Fall crafts (I think this year I want to attempt a wreath) Hot apple cider My one and only complaint about fall is that it means winter is coming…
