I love this award show. There's such diversity in artistry. And the red carpet is a hoot! When the performances are live it's truly amazing to see such talent. I really don't know much about Beyonce, but she covered an Alanis Morrisette song and was really cool.
Well, I did it. I put on my big girl pants and made the telephone call that's been looming over my weekend. I shouldn't have put it off because every scenario I imagined was wrong. It couldn't have gone smoother or better. And my apology was eloquent and sincere.
Moving on.

I loved this movie. I don't care if a reviewer called it "Chick Porn" because it's the story of one woman being pursued by two men. I loved it. I believed everything Meryl Streep did and said. I can't wait to get this on DVD so I can watch the extras.

Your True Passion is Leadership |
 You feel most alive when you are bringing out the best in people. It brings out the best in you in return. You love to teach others and guide them. You are very patient. Giving back is important to you. You want to make the world a better place, and you know you can't do it alone. You need a team supporting you. For you, there's nothing more satisfying than a group of people working toward a common goal. Especially if you're leading that group. |
You Are Colorful Because You're Outgoing |
 You tell it like it is, and you tend not to leave any detail out. You have a bold personality. You're well known for being you, and you wouldn't have it any other way. You let it all hang out. People appreciate that you can always keep the conversation going. You always have something to talk about. You aren't a very private person. You reveal the good, bad, and ugly sides of yourself. Luckily, there isn't much bad or ugly! |
You Are Massachusetts |
 You are smart, serious, and quite traditional. You don't have a lot of time for junk in your life. It's likely that you're well educated and hard working. You live a very goal oriented life. You are probably socially liberal, but personally quite conservative. You would never be described as wild. But you're more diverse than people give you credit for. You're equally comfortable at a business meeting and at a rowdy sports game! |

Bold the true statements....

I have spellcheck enabled on my IE/firefox.
And right now it's telling me that spellcheck isn't a word.
I do a sport that isn't a team sport.
I'm right-brained.
I'm left-brained.
I'm split-brained.
I can read sheet music.
Horror movies are usually just funny.

A lot of people call me by my last name or my initials.
I have two middle names.
I enjoy sporks and other pointless things.
I am/want to be an organ donor.
I don't subscribe to any political party.
I'd like to/I do go to college in a city.
Whatever happened to green ketchup?
Drugs are lame. [medication is not, however]
^ You're lame.
^^Thanks.
Stephen King was right about Stephenie Meyer.
The universe tends to unfold as it should.
I can't stand cough drops with menthol in them.
I can name at least 35 U.S. presidents off the top of my head.
^And at least 40 state capitals.
I can hardly name any of either.
^But that's because I'm not from the states.
I find it hilarious that Miley Cyrus thinks she could win an Oscar for her movie.
Why the hell would Britney Spears (or anyone) make a song out of "If you seek amy"?
I get frustrated when someone cries during a movie when an animal dies, but then doesn't when a person does.
I wonder why the band "The Devil Wears Prada" named their band that.
Frankenstein is NOT the name of the monster.
I pronounce "route" like "root".
I say car-muhl, not car-a-mell.
I hate talking on the phone.
What the fuck is up with everyone wearing Uggs?
I've used a Wii Fit.
Angelina Jolie's lips distract me.
^But she was AMAZING in The Changeling.

Costco/BJ's/Sam's Club would be the perfect place to go in case of a zombie apocalypse.
I spell my name a way other than the most common.
So. I goofed. My big mouth got me in hot water once again. Now I've got to do some damage repair. I hate when I know better but don't stop myself. Oy. Just what this week needed to get better.
# 161
1. Wouldn't it be easy to run away and hide.
2. I hope American Idol with Ellen is better than ever!
3. I love the taste of coffee.
4. Sitting in the comfy chair with my feet up, in the living room.
5. The first thing we're going to do is reeeeeelax.
6. Splat drip, drip, drip; splat.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to cuddling with the dog, tomorrow my plans include the Breakfast Club--I missed the last gathering and Sunday, I want to recuperate! 
This week has sucked big time. Sucked the life right out of me. Exams. The entire schedule is modified for double-period exams with a period of study time before each double-period. Everyone's discombobulated because of the schedule change and the routine shake-up. Seeing students at the wrong time of the day, for purposes other than those we usually gather for and all that happy horseshit.
Plus, there's been a visit from the dramalama. A colleague has gone so far as to say, "I don't know how I can look people in the eye anymore." And my snarky inside self is saying, "woe, woe, woe is me..." Personalizing things and jumping to conclusions. Making assumptions and accusations. How did I get caught up in it? I'm not 100% sure, even. What has been said, though, by my mentor teacher is that I should consider going into professional arbitration. Muahahahahaha...
And now I'm out of my home-life routine because I'm puppy-sitting. I'm on my dad's computer which is NOTHING like my laptop. He has a standard keyboard and I'm used to my laptop or my ergonomic board. Oy. I'm not sleeping in my own bed, getting up earlier than usual to get to the crazy frenzy that's been school.
I want this week to end.
On a positive note, I had a great therapy session and I am handling the dramalama quite well, if I do say so myself.
I'm having a hard time to shake school today. It's been a long week because of exams, even though it's just Wednesday. Happy Wednesday.
Ten things about exam week:
1) A lot of students don't know how to take an exam. Their study skills are poor and they don't know how to break a question down.
2) Reading the whole question and eliminating false options is a skill a lot of students don't seem to have.
3) I got a lot of lesson plans done while watching them take the test.
4) No one smiles during exams.
5) I worked on my school website, too.
6) The change of schedule has thrown a lot of people into a tailspin--teachers and students.
7) I skipped tutoring this week. It's been kinda nice to have the extra time to work on grades.
8) I spent a lot of time reviewing and preparing my students for the exam. I would have expected them to put some time in on their own.
9) The exam takes a while to correct. Although, I'm glad we modified the extended response question so it is a bit faster to correct.
10) I've got to finish my quarter grades and comments, too. Hopefully I will be done before the weekend so I can just chillax.
A fun, light read. Just what I needed to get back into reading this winter. It's the story of Ginger--who is facing a mid-career crisis and has moved back to the family home to figure things out.
Have patience with everything
unresolved in your heart and try to
love the questions themselves, as if they
were locked rooms, or books
written in a very foreign language.
Don't search for the answers,
which could not be given to you
now, because you would not be
able to live them. And the point
is to live everything. Live the
questions now. Perhaps then, someday
far in the future, you will gradually,
without even noticing it, live
your way into the answer.
~Rainer Maria Rilke

Your Winter Sense is Sight |
 You are a very visual person, and some of your strongest memories are around things you've seen in your life. You simply like the way winter looks. This season may seem dead to most people, but it's very alive to you. You enjoy all the sites of winter - from starry winter nights to dancing holiday lights. You think this is the most beautiful time of the year. Snow makes everything a little more magical. |
You Are Fabulously Friendly |
 You're nice to everyone you come across, even if they aren't being particularly nice to you. You genuinely like others. You love your friends, and you're happiest when you're a social butterfly.

George may have some competition. Gerard Butler is quite yummy. But the movie is just ok. Cute.
Cut my finger building shelves for my daddy today. It's fun to hang out with my parentals and, of course, Maggie was in the thick of things. I love being able to do handy stuff for them.
You Are Caramel Hot Chocolate |
 You are a smooth character. You charm everyone who ever comes in contact with you. You are naturally sweet, but not too sweet. People get stuck on you without realizing it. You're the type to meet up with a bunch of friends for hot chocolate, especially after a day of sledding or ice skating. You try to never drink alone... even if it is hot chocolate. Warm, chocolatey goodness should be enjoyed with friends! |
When We Was Fab
1. Is there a blog as far as its appearance goes that you think is the most fabulous? Tense Teacher's got great layouts
2. Do you like the look and the contents of your blogs? oh, yeah
3. Have you ever thought what would happen to your blog in case you died? no...*shrug*...
4. Has any particular blogger had a great impact on how you set up and write your blog? no, I don't think so
5. Would you want a fellow blogger to give you suggestions or criticism of what you write? uhm... I really don't know how I'd feel about that
6. Is the number of visitors each day to your blog important to you? not at all
7. What percentage of your readers do you think actual comment? I have never given it a thought, but I love comments
8. Do you have a favorite blogger who does the memes that you participate in? most of my blog friends have evolved through memes
9. How often do you update your blog/site and why? daily... because it's good fun and relaxing
# 159
1. The lesson I learned yesterday was sometimes it's better to not talk.
2. Holidays are where friends and family meet.
3. All these years and I still make foolish choices.
4. It was about five minutes into the meeting when I arrived.
5. The truth is I hate running late.
6. Laughing is what I remember most from that day.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to relaxing, tomorrow my plans include running errands and Sunday, I want to watch movies!
The news stories from Haiti are so very sad. What a tragedy. It was tough to decide how to make a donation--I worried about texting. Finally, I chose the Doctors Without Borders and Mercy Corps.
You Are More Like Audrey Hepburn |
 You are classy, stylish, and charming. You are the true definition of grace. Some people may think you're a pushover, but they have no idea how tough you can be. You tend to draw people in with your mind. You are an intelligent and witty flirt. You are effortlessly gorgeous and naturally appealing. No one would accuse you of trying too hard. |
Got some new music lately: KD Lang's Hymns of the 49th Parallel, Kris Allen (reigning American Idol), and on Mrs. Chili's recommendation Vertical Horizon's Burning The Days. Now I need time to listen to it all.
Your Focus is Inward |
 You prefer to spend most of your time alone. Other people tax your reserves. You appreciate and enjoy your own company. You can always find a way to entertain yourself. You don't believe in being bored. In fact, you don't think it's even possible. With so many ideas, books, and places to explore, you are never lonely - even if you're all by yourself. |
Ten random things:
1) I feel like I'm being meeting-ed to death. Negotiations, association, faculty and other school-related meetings are constant the past couple of weeks.
2) I've been watching too much junky tv. I'm glad American Idol starts tonight so I can get into a regular watching routine.
3) Cookies are good. Particularly when they're slightly under-done and soft.
4) Last week was a hard week. Getting the students back into the swing of school, after vacation--and several of them whined and complained (ok, they actually bitched and moaned) about doing work. I felt demoralized and discouraged. It was awful.
5) There are moments when I feel like I've hit my stride, professionally. When things are clicking along and it seems like things are manageable.
6) There are moments I know I'm not doing the job I was meant to do. I still haven't figured out what my "it" job would be, but I don't think this is it.
7) I just got a couple of new CDs. I'm excited to listen to them.
8) I wish I could wear my comfy, loungy clothes to school. But, the first thing I do when I get home is change.
9) Positive feedback would make the atmosphere at school a lot better. There's a lot of stress, especially now that we're getting near mid-years and the end of the quarter.
10) I'm getting my Christmas/Valentine's/St. Patrick's gift to myself on Monday--a remote car starter! My last car had one and I reallllllllly miss it. So, I'm getting one installed Monday.
It's been a month since I've last read a book. Am I in a funk or what?? I just can't seem to concentrate on reading. Even though the book group book is great--I just can't read it. gah.
insightful horoscopes and articles--well worth a click!
