31 thoughts one has whilst their AC is on the fritz

1. It’s kind of hot in here. 2. Yeah, I’m sweating. 3. It’s kind of like a sauna. 4. THE THERMOSTAT SAYS 84. 5. I did not set it on 84. 6. Lemme just turn it way, way down, that should work, right? 7. (Hour later) Nope. Not working. 8. The good thing about homeContinue reading “31 thoughts one has whilst their AC is on the fritz”

Best Week Ever. Part 2.

Things you would have told me 10 years ago I’d be doing and I wouldn’t have believed: Chaperoning six teenagers on an overseas trip for eight days and having one of the best times of my life in the process. But it happened. You see, this summer I decided to be real nice and IContinue reading “Best Week Ever. Part 2.”

Now what do I do?

The Olympics are over, you all. We have to wait four more years. And don’t even say “Oh, but there’s winter games,” because those don’t even come close.

And we’ll have a jolly good time

So, I don’t know if you know this or not – unless we aren’t that close, you don’t know me or follow me on Twitter or I haven’t talked about it too much – but this summer I’m leaving the country. Not permanently, just for a week. And I don’t even have to learn aContinue reading “And we’ll have a jolly good time”

Summer project

Once you’re a grown-up, you really don’t have a summer vacation – unless you’re a teacher, which I’m not. Instead, I have the same days off I have the rest of the year, unless I want to use some of the time I’ve earned to get outta town for a few days. Last year, IContinue reading “Summer project”
