Why the Letter X Is Unnecessary
I've been working in elementary schools for a little over four years now. During those years, I've spent a lot of my time in kindergarten. This has allowed me to reflect on our alphabet. Not that I haven't spent time thinking about my ABC's from time to time. After all, I do enjoy to write … Continue reading Why the Letter X Is Unnecessary

Dear Parents,
I am a Therapeutic Day Treatment Counselor. My job is to spend time with your troubled child while he or she is at school. I hang out with them in their classrooms.

Jurassic Park
Title: Jurassic Park Author: Michael Crichton Published: 1990 I read this when I was a kid. And as much as I've always loved the film, I thought the book was better. Even at the tender age of 11 or 12, whenever it was that I read it. I picked it up again, thinking that, as … Continue reading Jurassic Park
Before Seeing Batman v. Superman…
Kids, this one has been a long time coming. To say I'm excited about seeing Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman together on the big screen is a supreme understatement. See, it's rare that I get excited. In fact, I've often joked that, for me, excitement looks like your average person's meh. But I'll admit that … Continue reading Before Seeing Batman v. Superman…

Desperation leads to unwise, probably impulsive, decisions that could have long lasting ramifications. I know because I've been there. For nearly four years I worked as a bank teller. Describing myself as miserable during … Continue reading Where Misery Takes You
Question of the Week #56
If you found that a good friend had AIDS, would you avoid him? What if your brother or sister had it? No. On both counts. There would probably be a mild adjustment period in the beginning, but I don't think it would be long before we got back to a comfort level that we're used … Continue reading Question of the Week #56

Blogger Meet & Greet
There’s a party happening over at A Momma’s View… Check it out!
I thought it’s time to run another Blogger Meet & Greet over here. I think some of you are still stuck in heaps of snow, so what could be better than a little gathering and chilling with friends? So get out of your snowed in place and into this virtual world and come over here. I’m sure you find someone you like to chat and if not: Just hide somewhere and listen to the conversation until you feel comfortable to join in.
As you are over at my place, please respect my “house rules”:
- Play nicely, don’t be rude
- Say hi to some of the other guest, maybe even have a little conversation with them
- Bring a little something (how about the link to one of your posts left in the comments?)
- As I’m very social I’d appreciate it if you would bring some friends along. I love meeting new…
