Bitch session about family

Posted by: Anna on: October 31, 2007

I’m about at my wits end.  I love my niece, I love her to death.  She’s in her terrible, horrible un-tameable twos.  I really resent my sister for not bringing her up better.  For not teaching her to not throw fits, for giving her who knows how much candy and then making me put her [...]

It is official

I have found the internet boring.  What now?

Why is there never a good time to take a pre-planned mental health day?  I’d really like to take a day off from work, but I’ve gotten myself into so many committees and commitments that I can’t find a day off.   All I want to do is take an extra day to sleep in and [...]

My precious… sleep

Posted by: Anna on: October 25, 2007

I don’t know what is worse, plain old insomnia or insomnia while on ambien.  I am dying to get a good night’s sleep and it just isn’t coming.  I haven’t been this tired in ages.  Delirium is soon to follow, maybe I can be funny then.
School work is staying caught up.  I’m trying to work [...]

I got that Barenaked Ladies song in my head

It has been a long, yet, short, two weeks since…

I broke my toe – two weeks ago today. I’m finally wearing shoes, but I discovered today that my toe isn’t ready for my awesomely cute Chuck Taylors. And I’m stuck with no other choice but to wince when I walk.

I began school. [...]

Thinking

I’ve had two full weeks of school now.  I’m enjoying it a lot.  It was a true test of commitment this week since I had to travel for a conference for work.  I loved Hickory.  Now my decision of where to live has had another city added to it.  In case you are keeping track [...]

Good Gravy!

School is proving to be very interesting.  Apparently, there is no testing to get into these courses.  A select few people can not use correct grammar to save their life!  I’m talking so bad that I can not put the whole sentence together.  I don’t know whether to cry or laugh or tattle-tale.  Seriously, people.  [...]

The secret is out of the bag

Posted by: Anna on: October 1, 2007

I had been holding back, not telling anyone so that I didn’t curse it.  I’ve had really bad experiences with school.  There’s a little bit in these archives, but most it was deleted with the last blog.  Let’s just say, I’ve been trying (half-heartedly) to get a degree.   I found the perfect school for [...]
