Self Care

Apparently, my supervisor thinks I'm stressed out. See, I work as a counselor in an elementary school. Have I mentioned that on here before? I can't keep up with things anymore. I'm too stressed out. Anyway, we're coming up on the end of the school year. Less than five weeks remain until the glorious days … Continue reading Self Care

That Time I Drove 2.5 Hours to Learn What I Already Knew

I'm not a big fan of wasting time. Don't get me wrong, I'll binge watch the crap out of some shows on Netflix. But that's not necessarily a waste of time, right? I know I'm not finding the cure for cancer or anything, but I am being entertained. I'm sure that has some value. No, … Continue reading That Time I Drove 2.5 Hours to Learn What I Already Knew

Question of the Week #10

Which sex do you think has it easier in our culture? Have you ever wished you were of the opposite sex? Men have it easier. Without question.* I mean, our only responsibilities are to provide meat and make fire. Not to mention that the only discomfort we have to deal with beginning at puberty is … Continue reading Question of the Week #10

The Unrecognizable Lois Lane

I don't think I've mentioned on this blog yet (except for my About Me page) that I'm pretty fanatical about all things Superman. I have been for as far back as I can remember. One of those things is definitely the character of Lois Lane. Now, I'll admit, part of that could be a Teri … Continue reading The Unrecognizable Lois Lane

The Stats

I've made an important decision in the life of my blog. I've decided to stop paying attention to the statistics page. This is because all I get from looking at the stats is a feeling of discouragement. It tells me that, on a typical day, I might have 8 people who have stopped by my … Continue reading The Stats

Grown-Up Quiz

I have no shame when it comes to stealing ideas from other people's blogs. I used to do it all the time on my old blog. Back in the day, I had this crazy idea about blogging every single day. It becomes hard to come up with new things to write about if you're posting … Continue reading Grown-Up Quiz

Question of the Week #9

Would you accept $1,000,000 to leave the country and never set foot in it again? No, I don't think so. I kind of like living in the US. I like having the wi-fi. I like fast forwarding through commercials. I like having a Coca-Cola every now and then. I realize that it's possible to get … Continue reading Question of the Week #9

Meteorological Throwdown

In any given location in America, one can usually find three local TV stations affiliated with each of the three major broadcast networks. I suppose, in some of the more populated regions, you'll find news outfits that are affiliated with the Fox Network. Where I live, we really only see local affiliates for CBS, NBC … Continue reading Meteorological Throwdown

Question of the Week #8

Would you rather be a member of a world championship sports team or be the champion of an individual sport? Which sport would you choose? Well, I don't play well with others, so I guess I'll go with the individual sport route. Although, now that I think about it, it's not so much that I … Continue reading Question of the Week #8

Listening to Tolkien

Disclaimer: I'm possibly going to anger a significant portion of geek culture. And that's because (spoiler alert) I'm going to complain about The Lord of the Rings. Now, before you grab your torches and pitchforks and track down my IP address, just know that I'm not setting out to offend anyone with my opinion here. … Continue reading Listening to Tolkien
