Well, once again my physical ailments made a transposition! this time from an annoying canker sore to a horribly sprained and bruised right foot. I've been having to hobble around since Saturday but it's just been more irritating than painful.
With two books and three plays down, I can at least end the summer with the knowledge that I read something. Obviously that'd be disappointing and I hope to read more, but the next item on my list should probably be....a middle school book of some sort. yeah. dunno if I really wanna do that, though. and I have about a million things on my list. but if anyone has any suggestions, I'd be quite interested.
I still hope to teach in Japan but I've also applied to local schools, including my old high school. How fucked up would that be to teach alongside my high or middle school teachers? ::thinks:: probably not that much. just more surreal, awkward, or boring. Perhaps my school has more than five students of color now...
WHY am I addicted to Bravo's Top Chef show?! what's wrong with me? By the way, I can't cook for shit. I've burned Rice-o-Roni on two separate occasions for chrissakes. It's damn near impossible for me to cook something and there NOT be any smoke. It's my trademark, I suppose.
well...it seems less and less likely that the Great Comic-Con meet in Chicago will happen. QwertyGirl may very well be visiting the ruins of Romania and my bud will probably be filming some promo for a wrestling school. Now who am I gonna geek it up with? pfah! Who else can discuss with me the complex reasons and fabricate intricate scenerios for why Silver Surfer would whoop Superman's ass?
On Monday I saw Captured! By Robots (a metal cover band of corny '80s songs that's composed entirely of robots, excluding J-Bot the singer), which was pretty fucking great. J-Bot dressed up as a rabbi and married anyone willing enough to tie the bonds of matrimony for at least two songs.
You can't really see the Headless Hornsmen in the background. that's a pretty crappy picture in general, really. Next year J-Bot's comin back with a teddy bear orchestra. woot! I'd never buy one of one of their albums, but it was pretty damn fun to watch. I'd recommend.
uhm. i was just about to talk about how great The Decemberists and The Mountain Goats are but i just discovered that one of my closest friends is doing coke and if that's not a fucking buzzkill i dont know what is.

some of the teachers from CHS are regular library patrons and they harass me to come visit them. and I'm all, that is scaaary.
is this coke person someone I know? if so, I will beat it out of them.
reading middle school books is ok. at the library, which I can't seem to shut up about today, some copies of Lord of the Flies are shelved in the Young Adult section. what-evaaarrr..
if you want to read a middle school book, read Harry Potter, then we can talk about how much fun but how poorly written they are.
I must say that I don't have any middleschool books to suggest either.
BUT,
that band looks super cool, and anyone can kick superman's ass. Superman was just to "super"...
Thanks for your response. I don't look at the set's either at all. Occassionally one will spike my interest, but in all honesty the girls on this site are actually my least favorite thing about it. Most of them are hella cocky (with no reason), and they think cause they're one in a thousand they can treat the members like shit, or whine to the moderators when someone disagree's with them. It's getting old.
