No, dammit, NO!
It was NOT supposed to be this way! There was no reason, no fucking reason at ALL why you had to take your own life yesterday. You were supposed to forever rage against the swine and greed-heads that were cheapenging this world. You bought the ticket - but you didn't take the ride. Not to the end. No, you got off before...

There is no joy in Mudville. The mighty McNabb has struck out.
At least we Philadelphians get to relish in our favorite pastimes: Wallowing in misery, wondering "what-could-have-been", and fuming with anger at how Boston always gets to fuck the prom queen.

Well if the book says so then it must be true!
My students kill me! They crack me up everyday!
One kid said to me in foods class "I always thought this was easy because my mom can do it".

If doctors make the worst patients then I guess it would follow suit that teachers make the worst students.
Not surprisingly enough, it seems this is, in fact, the case. Today was an "in service day" - a loathsome term if there ever was one. It's really just a euphamistic phrase that means, "The kids don't have to be in school by 7AM but YOU...

niiiice photo. you're so swank
I want pancakes.
This has been a good day - my unsatiated pancake craving notwithstanding. Being a teacher gives me the inside scoop on why the phrase "Kids do and say the darndest things" is taken as a truism. Case in point: A student of mine took an "unknown quantity of an unknown drug" that would, he was told, address his ADHD tendencies. Obviously, I...

Eagles?
What is this "eagles" you speak of?
One of my Donovan & mom photos is being used for a national ad this week. Ca-ching!
The students you need to be most concerned about are the ones with sawed-off shotguns. They often have problems expressing themselves in traditional ways

*** Part about N messing w/ my head and my plans for the prior evening has been erased due to resolution of said conflict. I feel no need to continue to broadcast such hostility and negativity - especially about the woman I love so dearly.
I've moved on - why can't you?

In other news - Reggie White has died, I had to remove...

I just have to say, I happened on your page (being within 50 miles of me in the search) and the most amazing thing happened -- I saw your picture. I really don't know what to say, other than that is the coolest jacket I've seen since 1975.

the sick thing, about the 22,000 is that i heard today on the news it increased again, with more deaths counted in indonesia, to 226,556. Its one of the most horrible things to ever happen.
This sucks...
I'm currently typing this page with only one functioning arm. It seems my other arm - my left arm - decided to not want to work any more and for no discernible reason other than to spite me. I have no idea why it did this, and, no it's not from THAT reason - I'm right-handed and that arm is functioning perfectly.

*UPDATE*
========
I have, like, 10 minutes to write. I don't feel it's enough to warrant an entirely new journal entry, but I feel compelled to inform the greater SG community of what it is, exactly, I am up to.
Right now it is work. Litterally, I have been working so much I have bags under my eyes. I've gotten about, hmmmm, 10 hrs of...

Don't you know that you're supposed to assign grades by doing numerology of each student's name & thats their grade!
I can't wait to teach!

Christ....it's been about 2 weeks since I've been on here with enough time to update; though I don't know why I feel bad about it. It's not like any of you are hanging on my every word in order to make it through your day. I don't have to justify my absence to you. That's right...I'm talkin' to YOU.
Fuckers.

I really like the Weakerthans & I can't figure out why they don't get the hell out of Winnipeg. I remember John Sampson & a couple of those other guys from many years ago. They were in bands like Propaghandi and Red Fisher.
I grew up in Winnipeg so I'm going to visit the family. I usually don't go there at Christmas so this will be my first real winter in about 7 years. Vancouver doesn't have real freeze your butt off winters. Thank God!

Hey, there's a Coach Z t-shirt now. You should buy one for your coach.

That's the greatest outfit ever. Every girl's crazy bout a sharp dressed man!
She really was excited. I'm glad. I hate to hear it when people are hurting. Clinkies to you too love.
