It's been a while and I just haven't had the desire to post anything.  I've really got very little positive to talk about and am tired of complaining (finally! lol).  Teaching is still exactly as I expected--frustrating, thankless, and not what I want to do with my life.  It depresses me thoroughly that I have to get up before dawn and drive to a ( Read more... )

Obviously been pretty busy in the past few weeks.  I'm getting ready for teaching with meetings and teacher training--all pretty much crappola worth nothing.  The school is not very organized and b.c I've been put on a freakin' cart and had my classroom taken away from me, it's even worse.  But a paycheck is a paycheck...I just have to keep ( Read more... )

By the way, Fidel Castro is not Saddam Hussein, is not Joseph Stalin, not Vladimir Lenin, not the most evil of people.  He's no saint, but he's not the worst sinner around.  Dancing in the street about him being sick and temporarily handing power over to Raul (who, by the way, is not exactly a step up)?  It's disgraceful!  And just because he's ( Read more... )

It's been a pretty busy 10 days or so.

I accepted to Middletown offer and will be a Spanish 1 and 2 teacher at MHS.  I am none too thrilled about it, but teaching seems to be the only decent career path for now.  The one saving grace is that I'll have summers off but still have a paycheck coming in from that and I can teach at Upward Bound, which ( Read more... )

A tsunami in Indonesia has killed 300+.  And now Hurricane Beryl has popped up off the Carolinas.  The seas are fighting back...

So, we all know my general feelings about the Middle East and Israel.  But all of this crap has come to a head yet again and still there's no reason to it ( Read more... )
