I feel bad for the injured player, but I can't help but be twelve.

That's sounds good and kind of continent-spanning, Amy.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I should be doing stuff, like laundry, but I"ve decided my evening is going to be devoted to catching up on tv and because wine.

Yay weekend

I've done half my laundry (clothes.) Other half (sheets and towels and anything else left over) not till sunday.

YAY WEEKEND

I'm considering a second glass of wine, because I think I have an open bottle of red in the kitchen.

One of my co-workers was SO EXCITED to find out I watch Project Runway - she has no one else to talk to about it. And we both catch it over the weekend so we can rehash it on Monday.

YAY Weekend indeed! I am grading and it's not fucking great, but it is eyeopening. I have two class sets done and at least two more, which is 80 more papers. I'm using a new rubric with 18 criteria which is kicking my ass, but is illuminating on what is working and not in a piece of writing.

So, since I just finished my worst class (seriously. if you have me on facebook, you can see one argument a kid is making in something that is related to English about music and sexually transmitted diseases), I'm taking a break and entering other stuff into my gradebook. YAY.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I'm having a great time in Pebble Beach. Even with Jason working all the time. I finally got to go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium today, which was amazing. The seahorse and jellyfish exhibits were so well-designed and fun. Today, J went to the Quail car event, but he skipped the car auctions so we could have a late lunch together. Tonight, he's at a dinner and I'm enjoying Friends reruns. Tomorrow, he's at the vintage car races, while I'm going to the spa for a massage.

Aw, that sounds swell. It's years since I've been to Monterey, but the jellyfish exhibit still sticks in my memory.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Tomorrow, he's at the vintage car races

Never ever so jealous. All those pretty cars...

I know...I wish I could go, but no tix.
