Chose Soixante de Moi

60. As of today, I got accepted to grad school here:

(Ok, maybe not so much this time around.)

Ain't it though?

Although, I have to admit, there wasn't that much beer drinking before. The drinking began when the paying job stress kicked in.

Amanda, I'm going to study Education and get certified as an MRT, all at the same time. That's secret lingo, for you folks at home.

Thanks, Lance. I don't intend to, as I usually don't on the street and what not. The older I get, the less crap I take it seems.

MRT is Master Reading Teacher. Right now I'm just an apprentice, apparently. I'm studying Ed because I want to open some more opportunities for research in my current field, which is education. :)

Congratulations... how did someone get in to graduate school not realizing how to count to 59 in their previous title? ;) Just kidding!

Well, because, Justin, I was going to wrap at 58, then slapped 59 on. That's why.

Awesome on the MRT, too.

I'm looking into a CAGS in Reading. Mostly, for the kids but also a little to spite my boss...

Yay! Boss spiting (spite-ing?), the sport of champion teachers!

Don't forget skip day, hazing and beer bongs. All VERY important elements in the college experience. And congratulations to you!

Very Sad News

Hi everyone, Because friends share in good things and bad and this is important to me, I thought you all might like to know. My mom, who had been battling many health problems, especially during the past few years, passed away Friday night. She was not a perfect person, but her love for me was. I figure if you want to know more, you'll ask. But if I don't seem quite myself for awhile, that's why. Thanks.

The Sock Monkey Project

Recently, due to Arctic Blast 2007 (i.e. a quarter-inch of sleet upon these Dallas roadways), a much-anticipated night of drinking, fooling around and Sopranos was nixed. Did I sulk? Well, hell yes, I did. And then I did some more. But after that, pouting began to bore me and I hit upon a mission: I was gonna make a goddamn sock monkey. Why the flip did this occur to me? Well, I'd talked it up for many years, seeing as how my grandmother gave me one when I was six or seven and it was subsequently so cherished and frequently hugged that the tail developed a hole at the end. As it turns out, my friends listen to me on occasion, so I was gifted with this kit at Christmastime this year. Though my original hosiery simian was far more tricked out than this one, with a red gingham dress and hat that had lace trim, this nostalgia-fueled, red felt vested ape would do nicely on a blustery, pissy winter's night . Besides, the original mon-chi-chi was lost. Generally speaking, I'm n

Two Years

Two years I've been writing this. Two years. Most of you and I have known each other for most of that span. Why is it so hard to believe, the constant flow of time? -------------------------------- Reality is a question of perspective; the further you get from the past, the more concrete and plausible it seems -- but as you approach the present, it inevitably seems incredible. -- Salman Rushdie
