Complaining about something*

Disappointed*
My lovelies, I’m upset. I do this EVERY time. Really, I should have learned my lesson a long time ago, but I keep getting sucked in and repeating the same mistakes. But I’m getting ahead of myself here. Let me explain… My life has changed a lot in the past month. Becoming a supply teacher has been amazing for so many reasons, but one of the things I love most about this job (besides the paycheck) is that I suddenly have all this time to read. For those outside the teaching world, most high school teachers teach three periods a day, with the fourth designated as a “prep” period for…

The Super Sickness*
It finally happened. I avoided it alllllll winter, and even survived the spring allergy season before a sickness of proportions I haven’t known since my camp counselor days slammed my body into utter submission. Oh my lovelies, it was bad. Last Friday I noticed a little tickle in my throat while I was teaching. My throat felt a bit sore, but I didn’t think it was anything to be concerned about. By Friday night it hurt. I knew I had to nip this thing in the bud so I downed some no-name cough syrup and started on Vitamin C and Salt & Vinegar chips like it was nobody’s business. I…

Followed*
As a blogger, I usually love when someone “follows” me. In the real world? Not so much. On Wednesday I had an experience that unnerved me so much that I felt real fear for the first time in ages. I’m normally a very cautious person. I’m the kind of girl who always checks the back seat whenever I get into my car at night, who locks the door to my home when I’m by myself, and who looks both ways before crossing the street. I love, love, love criminal-ish TV shows and I take a lot of the tips and advice given for women in those shows to heart. (well,…

December: A Recap*
(via: http://www.highere.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-o-matic/cache/26561_Woman-writing-Christmas-c-001.jpg) My, my, my… December 29th already? I feel like I’ve been saying that every day this month but I can’t even handle how quickly the days have flown past. Sooo… December was a little bit of a write off for me. I’m rather ashamed to admit that it’s been more than two weeks since my last post. *sigh* Life passed the busy stage long ago and the past few weeks have been a whirlwind. It’s rather obvious that I haven’t been here, so here’s what I’ve been up to: Christmas Letters*Yes, even though I usually have it posted here for you to read by now, I did find…
