Twenty-first Century Love.
Jonathan plugged my iPad in before he left this morning so that it would be charged when I got home.
True romance, folks.
Even though I'm not going to the ceremony, today...
WOO!! In lieu of actually having one, just imagine a picture with me in a cap and gown here.
Sometimes I wonder how much I miss going on around...
questforanendlessnight-deactiva asked: Firstly, I've been following your blog quite a while and I love it!
Secondly, I'm extremely excited for friday (I'm not sure why you would care but I'm telling you anyway) because I'm taking my Senior fieldtrip to NYC to see Phantom of The Opera on Broadway. Broadway shows are on my bucket list and I am ecstatic.
I do have a legitimate question, no...

Crimes Against Hugh’s Manatees is written by the incredibly friendly and helpful Hugh. He and his family live in Joplin, MO, which was hit by a horrendous tornado yesterday, less than a quarter mile from his house. And while his family and house are fine, they have no power and no idea when it will come back, and while they are in a better position than many, obviously there will be...

Just when I thought all was good.
I did Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred yesterday (for the first time in quite a while), and woke up feeling fine. “Awesome!” I thought, “I must be in better shape than I thought.”
Then I came to school. Where there are actually stairs. Lots of them.
I may need to be helivac’d home.

Pet Peeve of the Day
I hate when the cover design of a book changes when a movie adaptation comes out, using the movie poster or actors instead of the original book art.

Complete opposites, I’m aware, but I still can’t decide!

the next generation of feminists.
A little while ago one of my students referred to herself as a feminist. She did so proudly, and in an educated and appropriate context. And she is 9 years old.
I don’t know exactly when I learned the word “feminist,”or when I understood its meaning well enough to know what the label means to me personally. But I was definitely older than nine. I know it wasn’t until high...

Because it is so, so good. The prices are still up there - hey, they’re fancy bags - but the discounts are enough to be sorta thrilling (I’d estimate about 50% off for many styles).

accordingtojennifer:
…when will she just shut up?
I was waiting for this type of response from some conservatives. All I have to say is that it takes a lot more class and dignity to have restraint in this type of situation than it is to seize and maximize the sensationalism of it. Not that I would expect Sarah Palin to know anything about restraint in the public eye.
Kudos, Mr. President,...
