Amazing how we find things to mark the passing of time. For some, the beginning and end of a term marks the passage. Still other the seasons or holidays. As I awoke this morning I realized one of my measures of time, was the visits I make to "the Village", visiting and caring for the homes and children that are not my own.

This morning marks another year, and another summer.

Self reliance is a scary thing. I mean it truly shows who you're forced to depend on.

Even leaving can't make me not want more than i need.

Booooo on Doctors

So I have this headache that wont go away...

the doctor does her thing...open your mouth, roll your neck, diets, meds, blah....

She tells me I'm "stressed," I laugh. Um I'm in grad school. I run a national campaign for my organization, and I teach 6 and 7 years...Are you kidding I'm not stressed, I'm LIVING!

Anywhoo....I say "the headache" she says "Ibprophen"

No computer, reading, or exposure to loudness....

WOW--I'm so glad I live in the world....

I'll be vegging out and "de-stressing" this weekend :-)

Every Woman Should Know
Category: Writing and Poetry

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

Enough money within her control to move out

And rent a place of her own even if she never wants

To or needs to...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

Something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her

Dreams wants to see her in an hour...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .

a youthshe's content to leave behind....

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to

Retelling it in her old age....

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .....

a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black

Lace bra...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .

One friend who always makes her laugh... And one who

Lets her cry...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ..

a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone

Else in her family...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

Eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a

Recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

a feeling of control over her destiny...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

How to fall in love without losing herself..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

HOW TO QUIT A JOB,

BREAK UP WITH A LOVER,

AND CONFRONT A FRIEND WITHOUT RUINING THE FRIENDSHIP...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

When to try harder... And WHEN TO WALK AWAY...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

That she can't change the length of her calves,

The width of her hips, or the nature of her parents..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

That her childhood may not have been perfect...but its

Over...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

What she would and wouldn't do for love or more...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

How to live alone... Even if she doesn't like it...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

Whom she can trust,

Whom she can't,

And why she shouldn't

Take it personally...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

Where to go...

Be it to her best friend's kitchen table...

Or a charming inn in the woods...

When her soul needs soothing...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

What she can and can't accomplish in a day...

a month...and a year...

 MAYA ANGELOU

I paid money for that....
Current mood: Eveything feels better than yesterday

So...Last checked I was sick....Doc says I'm stressed. Doc says relax...I tell her, well I'm a teacher, the kids have had the flu and strep... "Can ya test me just to be sure?"...

Her response "I don't think it's necessary, but its your money."

Okay....So I go home thinking, it's all in my head. that i need to relax. So I do. I veg. I forget all my plans for the weekend,....(namely because I'm exhausted!!!!) So I think I'll rest....but I'll be better right? WRONG!

I go to work on Monday feeling like death ran me over with a 4x4 and then reversed over my weak body to scoff at me when I didn't die....

Doctor calls me at work on Monday after lunch...."Feeling better"--"Not really"

"Um...yeah, you should be at home...you have strep throat...I'll write you a prescription"

GRRRRRRRRR......SEE PEOPLE. I don't make it up. I really was sick...now aren't you glad I didn't expose you???

So, anywhooo.,...today I'm taking the day off. Drinking O.J.Doing the Dishes. cleaning my room. Watching way toooooooo much MTV and Style network.

My loved ones say to take a nap, but guess what...with anti-biotics in my sytem I actually feel like I can live past tommorrow.  YAY!

k--thats all. Hope everyone is enjoying their days.

In 5 days....
Category: School, College, Greek

In 5 days I'll either be super cool or super un-cool...

I'm pretty sure thats how it'll go.

Why? oh why? because I will be in New Jersey...throwing the biggest most expensive party of my life....and yeah...since I'm like the hostest with the mostest...responsibility..as to its success, etc...I'm kinda nervous....

For those of you who dont know me...I'm in a sorority. (Don't judge...yet!) Its like a good one...I promise...anyways....

As Someone I know would say, "I'm kinda a big deal"---at least on March 18th, I will be-- or i'll pretend to be....

Ever get that "Fake it till you make it," mentality?

Heres hoping it works...

Yeah. So this isn't a coherrent blog for anyone that doesn't know me...or doesn't read my other "real blog" but if you have questions. I'm honest, so I'll answer.

Hope your weekends less productive than mine!

I am....
Current mood: accomplished

So I have recieved many great and awe inspiring answers to my "I am" bulletein...

Thanks a plenty... the paper went well....In an unfortunate turn of events my plans to see the Elusive "Matt Jones" (on my friends list for times and shows) is once again trumped by fate....perhaps I am not ment to listen to the magical tones of an acoustic guitar???

 

doubtful...but because I couldn't help it...nor get the song out of my head from hearing it in the car....one of many of my lyrical responses to my "I am _______" question.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You think that I go home at night
Take off my clothes, turn out the lights
But I burn letters that I write
To you, to make you love me

Yeah, I drive naked through the park
And run the stop sign in the dark
Stand in the street, yell out my heart
To make, to make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho


You may not believe in me
But I believe in you
So I still take the trash out
Does that make me too normal for you?

So dig a little deeper, cause
You still don't get it yet
See me lickin' my lips, need a primitive fix
And I'll make, I'll make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess

See me jump through hoops for you
You stand there watching me performing
What exactly do you do?
Have you ever thought it's you that's boring?
Who the hell are you?

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho
