The slight haze of spring coupled with the disconnected airs of the slightly ill, mostly abstracted thoughts in short bursts. My dream last night: I hopped a ride on a cloud...literally, with the brothers. At first I ( Read more... ) -
Fairytales, Wagner, Slothrop, Venus and a very phallic, fecund staff
"There is that not-so-rare personality disorder known as Tannhauserism. Some of us love to be taken under mountains, and not always with horny expectations-Venus, Frau Holda, her sexual delights-no, many come, actually, for the gnomes, the critters smaller than you, for the sepulchral way time stretches along your hooded strolls down here, quietly ( Read more... ) -
Vengence? Destiny? Irony?
On my second day sneaking out of the office to watch TV shows on my computer and smoke in my nearby apartment, I was given the perfect excuse. The entirety of the faculty was herded into the meeting room for over an hour as I sucked down the rare treats of mid-day nicotine and my newly-obsessive "24" habit. I had intended to shave and put contacts ( Read more... ) -
Cold n Tired
Winter's trying to catch up with itself a bit too little, a bit too late. More half-ass snow this morning, didn't even stick past 10..."makes you wonder why it bothered" I'm shivering in the teachers lounge, even with my coat, scarf n gloves on. The windows are a steamed up but the heaters just cant seem to do the job. I have no classes, which is a ( Read more... ) -
Uh-huh, this-my-shit...
So, thanks to everyone who came out last Saturday to the DJ gig. It was a lot of fun and I got a lot of compliments...way more compliments than offers of severe ass-kicking from mulleted, tattoed guys who look like they stepped out of a bon jovi video...of which there was 1 (trust me, it was much more just an amusing detail than anything actually ( Read more... ) -
Open Letter To Monday
god-DAMMIT Monday! This kind of behavior has to stop. Reminicent of the time you locked me in a freezing gym all morning hugging the single space heater while the 8 downs-syndrome kids screamed in their wheelchairs as an incompitent teacher tried to get me to play bingo with these kids that can't really even speak...period...let alone speak ENGLISH ( Read more... ) -

Well, back from Hokkaido trip and done nursing my sore ass and little headwound. I want to write a big long entry about it's awesomeness, but I just don't have much gusto in me this thursday. I'm trying to get settled on some plans for Golden Week that wont cost 20000000000000000000000万円 but figuring out these Japanese websites is a ビッチ. It looks ( Read more... ) -

ok, unfinished entry aside...that was the most COMPLETELY f'd up kyushoku of my life.
I went to the classroom, got there around the usual time, but things were running slow cause of the tests. All the students were messing around, being noisy and nasty after having to sit through their tests all morning. For some reason, not one of the other ( Read more... ) -
Apologies, but I need the practice. やってみよう！
今日のは日本語で書きます。「なぜ」と聞きたければ、最近はおもしろい事やいい物語があまりないんだから、理解するのは大切じゃないかもしれません、ね? さらに、ひまな時間がいっぱいあるんですよ。今日はメッチャクチャ寒い雨天です。職員室にストーブの隣に立って身震いします。生徒達は試験を受け中だから、授業がないんです。やっと和田山中学校は朝来市役所に僕は来年の契約をされません。昨日、田中先生が僕のアパートへ来て知らせました。持っていないフォム学校に持ってくれると言うことなので、今日全部JETのフォオムを持って来たけど、田中先生と校長先生は探していた時には、ほしい事がわからなかった！校長先生は喜ばしくないそうだ。朝来市役所を連絡した後で彼らを持っていた。バカだね。今日も他の変なことがありました。 ( Read more... )
