    LOL. Love that movie

    Ok so I'm sleeping in, since I am a blessed teacher with a snow day to start the work week. I am thinking about how amazing it is to sleep and cuddled up with all 3 puppies, when I am suddenly awakened by the singing of Celine Dion (my ringtone), which pretty much forces me out of bed at the ripe hour of 10:30.

    I am continuing my streak of being a bum in my own home. I have now been here without leaving since Friday at 4:15pm, surviving on ...

  2. The art of blogging

    by , 03-09-2008 at 03:15 PM
    Yea, I have two rants today.

    I am sure glad Scott invested in this blog feature on the forum. See, people don't have to read my shit if they don't want to, but I have a space to talk to myself I guess

    I have never been an every day writer. I have a myspace page, and I really only blog about major things. I am finding though, that poker is kind of a daily constant in my life, so it's nice to have this. I am enjoying writing daily, it's kind of therapeutic actually, ...

  3. The benefits of clearing garbage from your life

    I have four areas where this has proven to be ultimately cleansing.

    a) My poker game. I lately have been playing more hands and trying to make more moves than necessary. I have strictly gone back to ABC poker and am finding a much higher success rate. I'm not raking in any big money, but being patient ...

  4. Excitement, even on a blizzardly day...

    by , 03-08-2008 at 08:03 PM
    Ok, so last night, I finished 5th in our league. I did not cash.

  5. Friday Part 2

    by , 03-07-2008 at 12:56 PM
    Alright, computer problems solved. Sheesh. What a morning. And then, just when I think grades are done and buried, it turns out I hit some key that pastes the same intro letter onto every grade card. So now all 489 of my grade cards say "this grading period in first grade, we have been.....blah blah blah." So now I have to go back and fix that little issue.

    I am hoping this team event goes on as planned. I hopped on the evite today to see what it is I'm competing ...
