• stretch it.

  Contentedness. It's such a strange thing and a scary thing. Dangerous. I'm content with my life right now as a teacher. I wake up in the morning, I spend my days trying to impart not just general Texas General Knowledge (good lord!) on my 50+ fourth graders, but imparting some sort of desire to k...

• it’s hard to resist…

  August 12, 2009

  I remember when every day I would come to opendiary to write about my life, to vent, to feel validated, to analyze. So much has happened in the past three years. Too much to write down here... fear not it's been written, most of it. I didn't get married. I left Vermont... for Texas of…

  I've always though that if I applied a systematic approach to a disordered world I'd find a reason. I would kill the chaos with formulas and functions, rhymes and reasons. I'd be able to stop and point out exactly what was what. I don't know what I'm looking for. I know I'm seeking something. I&h...

• nightmare on Elm St.Th

  May 3, 2006

  Since moving to Elm Street I've had two nightmares and Dave's had one. We didn't even think about the name of our street when we moved there. This last dream was particularly bad. I was friends with two girls who were concidentally identical twins. In the dream I spent most of my time with one&he...

  I've moved. To a wonderful, beautiful, excessively messy house. Since moving I've been working 66 hour weeks and I just haven't had the time to clean/set-up the house the way it should. Dave is trying, but he threw his back out, so poop. The house is amazing with the amount of absolute space. Wha...

  April 6, 2006

  I have been awake for twenty-four hours now. At one point, this amount of wakefulness would have left me drooling and grasping for words. I'm not very eloquent at the level of sleep deprivation, but I can function. Conjuction junction, what's your function. I don't really make sense half of the t...

• I could drive all day to everywhere.

  March 30, 2006

  I have a passion for driving. I love to be going places. I can't stand to stay in my house for an entire day-- I have an insatiable need to be going. Just going. I don't need a destination or a time frame. I just need to be heading somewhere. Before gas became so expensive…

• a string around my finger 1

  March 16, 2006

  It's come to my attention that I've forgotten some important things. Perhaps not life threatening important, or even for my physical well being. I always remember to brush my choppers and I normally remember to eat food.But I've forgotten things are important to my soul. To my mental well being. ...
