*cough* *sniffle* *cough* *cough* I’ve been sick all weekend. Nothing like having a weekend cold. The bright side of that story is… CMT had a Dukes Of Hazzard Weekend. It was great. I watched several episodes, as I faded in and out of drug induced sleep (legal, over the counter medications, that is). Bo and […]

Today, as I started my first period class, I was interrupted by rattling keys on my trailer door.

here is Lucy the Lion anxiously awaiting a trip outside. She doesn’t bark. She howls. It’s pretty funny, if I do say so myself.

Today we have an optional teacher workday. The weather really isn’t bad, but I can’t speak for the other side of the county, which borders on the foothills of NC. So, I assume there’s some ice and stuff out that way. I guess. Either way, I would rather stay home, but I have very few […]
