Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

Sara's house! No more settling!

I hope all of CJs tests come back with good results -- the bleeding eyes things! yoiks!

I am missing the michigan weather of 77 degrees. This hot crap blows.

My former principal told us on the last day of school he was leaving (no shit...after making some extremely bad personnel decisions like letting go the one teacher in the history department who teaches and has good success on AP exams). The new principal is going out on disability and so we are getting an interim. The whole thing is totally fucked up. Yay new school year?

The LA Zoo this saturday is having a star wars day. Noah doesn't know yet, but I'm super excited.

Also, I just deleted 728 work related emails unread -- it's all AP listserv stuff. It was very liberating.

Noah's gonna blow a gasket that day!

Yeah, no more settling. Please. I'm really relieved that this is the worst of it, but I'm tired of natural disasters. And the hurricane will really test my roof. My roof post-earthquake. Cries.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Bleeding from the eyes is creepy as hell, Suzi -- I hope it easily explained and fixable.

That's all I got -- I have no more spoons today.

Allyson -kick ass and take names. I have faith in your whoop-as fun.

Maria, I am so sorry your YAY jobs aren't panning out, and feel down about it for you and me. I feel like I should have done more, better...something. Let me know if I can help.

Love you all.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

The eyes thing happened due to the severity of the bleed and him pinching his nose to try to get it to stop. Ya know how when you cry, you end up sniveling? This was kinda in reverse. Utterly bizarre to see, but the main issue is to make sure he doesn't have something up with bleeding and not clotting. I'm sticking with the one time ONLY freaky event theory until something proves me wrong.

Suzi, I gotta say you are a stronger woman than I am, I would have lost it once the eye thing happened. I vote for a one time only thing too.

So I'm actually making use of my unemployment. So far this week I've cleaned out and revised my filing system and cabinet, tossed a bunch of old school work from the kids, cleaned out a bunch of other junk in storage bins in the garage and began getting rid of all the dust-catchers that my MiL had all around the house. Getting rid of the rest of them plus the creepy pictures she had on the walls will take the rest of the week. I'm not feelin' too bad about this!

Maria, sorry the job didn't pan out (stupid NDA)

Burrell it's nothing ma headed your way
