Grab My Button
Very Full
I’m very full right now. I ate at a bunch of good restaurants today in Round Top. Kyle says I should be honest and say I only ate two meals. I feel like I ate all day.
Napoleon Dynamite is a new hero of mine. The man is stuck in the 80s. The character, Pedro, also deserves much applause for his role. Yes, he displays stereotypical Latino qualities, alas I am still happy to see people of color in films, even if he uses his thug-esque brothers to help him when an election. Check out the movie, lots of funny moments. Made me regret not ever getting Glamour Shots when I was in junior high.

We have decided to go see Manchurian Canidate tonight. I’m looking forward to it, I’ve heard a lot of good things about it.
Other than seeing Shakespeare plays the past two days, haven’t done much more than that. I was able to meet up with lots of old friends, which was very nice. The Super 8 in Giddings treated Kyle and I great. I did make him trick them by telling him he was staying the night by himself.
The anxiety nightmares about the new school year have begun. Last night, I dreamt I had to teach a class with 30 students, I had two classrooms, and no materials to teach them with.
I talked with an ex-winedale friend of mine today. She is teaching in New York. She said, “Yay, the school flunked all the 7th graders.” Supposedly, the little darlings were so horrible, they managed to break 10 teachers. I can honestly say, the school I teach at is not that bad. I’m hopeful.
2 more days till workshops
8 more till the students return
Sushi Boat Attacks
Last night I saw the Bourne Supremacy, it was alright. I had not seen the first one and did not know what to expect. There definitely wasn’t much dialog. But Bourne is pretty much a bad-ass. If you have read the books, supposedly it is nothing like it.
We also ate Sushi last night at Umi. It was all very good, except with the hot roll with the japanese mayo on it. Bleck! I almost retched at work today, just thinking about. Could be I hate mayo.
The only tragic part of the meal was that Kyle was hit in the head with the 3 foot sushi boat. He’s okay, it was mostly funny, and the waitress felt horrible. Hehe…it was pretty funny.
I worked today for the lovely American Express doing filing to make extra money. I don’t know if I could do that for a living again. It’s mostly uneventful.
Off to check the news!
Saying Something
I heard someone mention, that unless you have something to say don’t bother with a blog.
What a sucko!
I could sit here and argue about how wonderful blogs are, but I don’t feel like it. Most people have something to say, and I think being able to keep up with someone else’s life from a distance isn’t a horrible thing.
I’ve become real lazy about email. I’ll probably get lazy about this too, or just get soo busy I won’t be able to keep up.
I think all my friends should get blogs, so I can know when they poop and everything.
Today is another day of packing and unpacking in this suck of all suck weather. I forsee myself packing and unpacking for a couple more weeks.
5 more days till I have to go back to school. cry
