Hello There and Medical Stuff
It's been a while. I'm terrible about posting anymore. But for those that are interested, here's a brief update.
I curled my hair with my flat iron tonight. It was terrible on the left side and pretty good on the right side.
I'm still here...
...sort of. I got a jobby job in August and have been reading GoT, so I haven't been on GT in forever in any real capacity. I lurk sometimes, and star what I can, but haven't been able to participate.
Hello! Halloween Costume Question
It's October, which means I need to help my kids get their costumes together. Both of my daughters are really into Monster High, so they want to dress up as Monster High characters. My youngest wants to be Frankie, who looks like this.
Remember Me?
Probably not. I'm like the Ann of GT. Her?
Hey Y'all
I went back to work full time this week. I've been absent from twitter and Gawker Media for this time.
I haven't seen this before.
someone posted this on the troll mp article. I like it.
Another Feature In Gun Culture (TW MURDER, GUN VIOLENCE, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE)
Erika Brown was shot by her boyfriend in their driveway. He then turned the gun on himself. Neighbors said they heard gunshots, but no one called police. The bodies were discovered later that day. This is in my hometown, and I still live nearby.
I've been away.
Not really "away," but not writing much on here. I'm on twitter quite a bit, and I definitely got to witness the recent shenanigans on Kinja. But I want to say welcome to all of the new contributors.
Happy Independence Day
I will always love this video. I hope everyone is having a happy and safe 4th.
I think I broke Kinja.
I clicked over to the Shatner article and this is what I find. Hold me, I'm scared!
Moar Employment Update
Last week I was waiting to hear back about the job interview I had. The interview went well but I was concerned that I was being too optimistic. Meanwhile, a position opened at another high school in the district, and since I already had everything filled out with the HR program they use, I applied for that job too.…
Employment Update
Yesterday I had an interview. I arrived almost 20 minutes early because I am one of those people who is either ridiculously early or 10 minutes late. I sat in my car in the parking lot for 10 minutes trying to put on my best casual/hire me face. I wore a maxi-dress and a blazer.
Even Steven?
Yesterday I posted about not getting called for an interview for a job I applied for. I was a little bummed, but I knew that I could keep substitute teaching and be ok.
Frowny Face
As some of you know, I'm a substitute teacher. I had taught full-time for five years and then I didn't pass on portion of my state's evaluation (not a VAM evaluation). I've been on a forced-hiatus of sorts for the last three years. Losing my job came at a really bad time (I'd just recovered from MRSA and a broken…
Taco sauce harassment.
I like Taco Bell. Ok. I said it. I like to eat crappy beans and questionable meat wrapped in a "tortilla." I briefly boycotted them as a teen because that fucking chihuahua seemed to be taking on dictator status, and I was irrationally worried about some sort of revolution. Then they got rid of the dog and I was back…
Are These Babies Evil?
These babies look like they have evil thoughts on their minds. Some look like they're evilly crawling toward world domination, others look like they just evilly filled their pants with evil poop, and one even casually flips the bird.
I like tea.
Every morning I have at least three cups of Earl Grey tea. Then by afternoon it's on to iced tea. Glass upon glass of it. Every morning my husband turns off my electronic kettle when he leaves, and I don't notice until I want my next cup. So I'm forced to wait 3 agonizing minutes while the kettle gets back up to…
Disgusting Abuse of Power: TW Sexual Assualt, Abuse of Authority
A police officer in Las Cruces, NM is accused of sexually assaulting a teen. Worse yet, he was a detective with the Special Victim's Unit. His confession / explanation is disgusting to read and even worse to hear. The things he mentions sound like typical grooming behavior, especially the "chicken game" he…
