I took a test on bbspot to determine my file name extension…. Which File Extension are You?

Dixie Classic Un-Fair
It was Fair weekend. An excursion to be remembered. Firstly, it took us over an hour from the time we left our house, until we were parked and walking in. (Seems we were trying to arrive as the many Wake Forest fans were trying to escape the same vicinity). Then, we ate. And ate and […]
The Curse
Stayed up late tonight watching baseball. The Yankees won in the bottom of the 12th, and that sucks. And, the Red Sox are playing on the west coast (currently tied 1-1), so I’ll have to wait until the morning to catch the end of that. I’m a little disappointed with myself for staying up this […]
Just Lucy and Me
It’s been just me and Lucy here for awhile. Derek has been out of town (in Vegas) since Tuesday. He’ll be back this Tuesday. I took Lucy to a Forbush football game on Friday night. They lost. Lucy frollicked with my mentor’s puppy. Then, we returned to scenic Yadkinville on Saturday to play with Teresa […]
Frazzled Nerves
So……. My teaching observation is almost here. Seems like just yesterday, that I found out the date and started stressing. And, now, it’s here. And I’m still stressing. I’ve barely eaten since Sunday night, and I anticipate my lack of hunger will only grow. The lack, that is. Not the hunger. Then, I think I’ll […]
Texas Roadhouse
Let’s see…. Derek and I started off our weekend with a tasty trip to the newly opened Texas Roadhouse. I had a great meal (prime rib, caesar salad, and sweet potato… not much variation, here). Above picture details the devouring… Derek’s Filet was a little undercooked — and that’s hard to do for him. There […]
Parent Conferences, Etc.
Another Picture-less update…. We have parent conferences today. Fun times, fun times. I hope I don’t have any angry parents. I can always fall back on the “I’m a new teacher” line of reasoning. If that fails, I’ll just hide, I guess. 🙂 In related news… I somehow managed to get “Staff Member of the […]
Just Another Manic Monday
Just checking in… Not much to report here. School is as usual. The kids come. They sit. They bore. They talk. They leave. I start the process over again. It’s magical. Lucy is starting to settle in. At least we think that’s what’s happening. She’s a lot more (very a lot more) playful. The house […]
Golden Eye
It’s been a rough couple of days with Lucy. We were quite worried at first, because there didn’t seem to be a food in the world that could hold her attention for more than 3 seconds. You can’t really reward a dog if they don’t care. Kind of like kids without anything you can “tap […]
Go Bush Go!
Another week down. That’s 4, total. We had a pep rally Friday afternoon. It was a pretty good one. Last week, it seemed disorganized and the students weren’t really involved. This week, they hyped it up all week, and the place was filled with Falcon Spirit. The football team played Starmount last night (hence, all […]
