and nothing anyone says can change that or make it better, so don't even try.

If there's anything more demoralizing than trying on bathing suits, someone please tell me what it is.

I came to the conclusion today that we are a failed society. We can cure polio, walk on the moon, and get a pizza to you in less than 30 minutes, but we cannot invent a bathing suit that makes me look decent.

I made Brendan promise me...

Brendan passed 9th grade, so as a reward I bought tickets for us to go to Warped in SF. This is shaping up to be a very busy vacation.

I'm thinking of looking for a job in Bergen County, NJ. Big move, I know, but it has everything I want in a place to live. I'll probably end up in Memphis though, if I can't...

I'm seriously thinking about taking Brendan and Zane to Warped when we're in SF in July. Weighing the pros and cons here...

Pro: It's an all-day event and a chance for Zane to see some good bands in a non-club environment.
Con: It's expensive as hell...we're talking like $35 a ticket.

Pro: Bad Religion, Bouncing Souls, Flogging Molly, The Groovie Ghoulies, Guttermouth, Lars Frederiksen, Tiger...

I actually made it to Memphis on Saturday and spent some quality time with HellCatJustine and Cockzilla. I was so ghettofabulous with my gin and juice (premixed, don't ya know?) that they were secretly jealous.

Went to the Renaissance festival with Zane yesterday. He wore his knight costume and I wore my (wench? peasant?) costume. I rock the hell out of a red skirt...

It looks like BLITZKID may be playing here on June 11 (J-Sin's birthday). Keep yer fingers crossed!

Went to the Renaissance Festival with witchhunter. We had a good time and came back with some pretty cool stuff. I'll let him talk about his. I got a new skirt and chemise (both lightweight cotton...I already have a dress and chemise in heavy cotton twill). I also got a decent short sword. Now I'm all ready to be plundered and pillaged.

I was...

Two good things happened today.

1. It was the last day of the school year, so I am gainfully unemployed until August. Now let's just hope I get a job before the new school year starts!

2. I got a Marilyn piercing by my friend Nicole at Budo Tattoo. I think it looks good, but then that may be my totally warped perspective.

Love...

I have the worst PMS EVER. My boobs hurt, I'm craving chocolate, and my hormones have kicked into overdrive.

On top of all that, I have been stressed about the end of the school year and the test grades for my students. My 9th grade students got their state test scores today, just five minutes before they all would have had to take the...

So I guess we're going to see the Horror Pops when they play Memphis in June. James has been talking to the chick (don't know her name), and he has wood for the band as a whole. It'd be nice if he ended up doing some art for them.

One more week of school! Double yay! I can't wait for my vacation, especially when we...

Well hell yeah!

We got our Gateway test scores for the 10th grade students yesterday. Out of the 23 students of mine who took the test, 10 scored avdanced, 11 scored proficient to advanced, and only two didn't pass the exam (one missed it by one point). The principal even told me that he was very impressed.

The other 10th grade teacher told me that...
