A few random thoughts

thought while on the bus (May 9th)

• I just saw a woman with big curlers in her hair - and perfect posture.
• I wish I has the sort of posture that made a stroll up the driveway with yellow curlers in my hair look like a walk on the catwalk...

thought on June 4th (new moon)

• Today I feel decidedly under the circumstances, under the weather and under the moon. I'm blaming it on the New moon (which was yesterday) and lower than usual blood sugar (haven't eaten in hours). I'm going to go make dinner! (I can't change the moon).
• One of my students wrote a whole composition on potato wedges. Even I'd be hard pressed to write a composition about raisins (though I do recall writing a poem). And as much as I love them I flat out couldn't do marshmallows.

Two Tom thoughts

• I just opened and emptied a can of tuna - unharassed.
• I accidentally taught my class to give stink eye (it's so cute when 8 year olds do it!)
• Mid convo one student stopped and pointed out the window - cat!! (I love children)
• (ok, that was more than two)

Nuances

• The things - the - something that happens between men and women. The tiny little *things (zings) that pass between brief touches - even across the space between them. Do they exist? and to what extent?
• L, I'm in love with the language you speak. Like I'm in love with French men -ooh la la! sigh* I wish I knew all that you say. You understand me so much better than I understand you (thought to my deaf sign language instructor).

Seseme Street

• "Yeah, well, I'm a grouch - I'm not pleased to meet anyone. So SCRAM!" (oscar The grouch)

May the 4th be with you!

hi ho
I'm so happy to have remembered that on this year :)
apparently I missed March 4th (and conquer!).
how are you all doing? I hope you are well. I haven't much to report except that I'm currently teaching fractions - exciting stuff!
(also, it's 3:20 am - so maybe my lack of things to say has to do with a lack of sleep ...a problem which I plan to fix very soon)
ok. I'm out for now.

May the 4th be with you!

:)

Hallo

hallo
I keep on looking at my blog expecting to see a new post. I know this might sound a little odd - well - (I actually do it all the time and have mentioned doing it before) - but this time it's true... I'm sure that I made a new post the other day... but I can't seem to find it. so then the question is - has it been lost in cyber space?? or did I just imagine writing it???
hmm
perhaps one day I'll know - though probably not..
otherwise - I have nothing to report. I actually do have a recent-ish post on Tom tales (which I did indeed write and which did indeed show up...) so you can take a look and let me know your opinions on the situation.
I hope you all had a good day yesterday - and weren't to bogged down by - expectations, disappointments or distractions. I heard several people refer to it as "Singles Awareness Day" - an idea which I like - but I don't like that it spells - SAD. because I'm not sad on that day! (although I must admit - I'm mostly indignant on it).
I hope you felt the love from somewhere, anywhere - whether it be from cats, dogs, shovelling snow, old people or friends. And just incase no-one said it to you let me say it now: I LOVE YOU!(insert your name here, I'll insert the names of my regular readers: Spart, Sappho, C, Hun, Tulip) :)

ok. got to run. wish me luck on my presentation this afternoon. I'm trying power-point for the first time!!
