My Secret Obsession

Maybe it's just me ... maybe I'm just an obsessive type.  I mean, hell, I have a six-foot tall cardboard replica of Spike in my office, for Pete's sake.

But the truth of the matter is, I found this blog to be very amusing.  I didn't even read the entries - just ogled ... er ... looked at the pictures.  If you fantasize ... that is ... love Spike as I do, you'll probably appreciate this.  If not ... check in again soon.

My Day Job

I learned something about myself today.  I learned that I'm "down with all that."  I was pretty sure I was  but one of my students confirmed it for me today.  Apparently I know things that some of my students' other teachers don't know.  Hey - knowledge is power, right?  I'm all about power. 

I think what gives me the ability to be "down with all that" is that I'm always listening (ya hear that, peeps?  careful what you say - it may end up in my next book!). 

Here's me, Spanish teacher by day, "down with all that" by night.

Settling in for winter

So last night was daylight savings.  There's something about turning the clocks back that reminds me of hugging a friend - the point where you have to let go, where you know you're going to have to say good-bye.  But then you settle in for the rest of fall, and then winter, knowing that it will be okay, because eventually spring will come again.  There's an inherent comfort in letting go when you know it isn't forever.
