    I’m a bad, bad blogger

    I’m a bad, bad blogger

    If it were just a matter of not blogging, then I would be a neglectful blogger. But it’s more than that. I got NINJA SOCKS in the mail, and didn’t post about it (but I will, I promise!). I got candy and a fire breathing wind-up nun in the mail (OMG, a fire. breathing. nun. [...]

    Freediving freak-out

    Did I ever tell you that I have a fear of water? I do, I swear it. It’s why I learned to dive: I wanted to stop feeling that awful panic/fear/terror/hysteria when I was in water. My family – the dad half, anyway – are all a bunch of waterbabies, and I was the only [...]

    And it just gets better

    Had my WTF appointment with The GES. I’ve learned that it’s best to do these things over the phone, so it was a conference call. He wasn’t happy with me.
    He won’t d0 a 3 day transfer, and he won’t do IUIs without a trigger or monitoring.

    Habitual habits

    Habitual habits

    Internet, I’m a creature of habit. Aren’t we all? I mean, there are things we do each and every day, without fail. Like, I brush my teeth first thing in the morning, lest my unsavory breath kills the cats. And lately I’ve partaken in the Seedling Serenade in the AM, as I have more than [...]

    I’m back

    Let’s see, what’s new? Lots, which suggests the dreaded bullet post would be most appropriate:

    I totally rocked that literature review, despite serious anxiety. Like, the kind of anxiety that makes my hair fall out. I chose a topic that I adored, one that intersected teacher education, low SES gifted students, programming and curriculum, and all of [...]

    The thing that makes it real

    I kept one vital piece of information to myself yesterday. But today I’m feeling a little less fra-jee-lay, and so I’ll dish it.

    A spork in the road

    A spork in the road

    Today I had a plan. Actually, I had an appointment: At 1:00PM, I was to be waaaaaaaaaay across town at an information/orientation session for prospective foster-adopt parents. I didn’t want to go.
