Isnt it funny?
When you tug me beside you
I dissolve like a ribbon of snow
Ive folded myself up
like a bird. Ive folded
one wing across one breast,
the other, across the heart.

Hello SG journal. I wonder if anyone is even looking at you anymore. I havent been on in ages. Of course, the fact that my computer is in the one room in my apartment that isnt heated doesnt seem to help the matter. Ah, winter in the Northeast.
Well, some amusing and morbid things have happened this way lately. A psycho kidnapper-murderer abducted a woman and left her body on Carol Spinney (aka BIG BIRD from Sesame Street)s lawn last week. I could go on and on about the absurdity of that but I will save the tasteless comments. Oh, and a fellow teacher from my district was arrested for armed robbery last week as well. Yes, I said ARMED ROBBERY. And Governor Mitt Romney still bitches about teachers getting paid too much! Lastly, I had to give an impromptu sex ed lesson in my Writing class recently when my 15 and 16-year olds told me that Coach told them they could cure STDs by sitting in the sauna. Um dont you teach Health class, Coach? Perhaps youre in for a refresher.
Okay. Enough of that. I hope everyone has a smashing holiday next week! Save some stuffing for me: I f*cken LOVE THE STUFF!

In the sauna?! I mean, I'm sure you could contract a few there, but WTF?!? Clearly, Coach Numbnuts DOES get paid too much.
My resolution for next year is to have an actual conversation with you.
