You already know I like puns. . . bad ones. So, please try to refrain from eye-rolling over the title of this post as I introduce you to the one, the only, Bee PALMER! That’s right, ladies and gents. She was known as Bee, even though her name was actually Beatrice (a name which growsContinue reading “Finding my Buzz”

Go FO[U]RTH and Celebrate!
Hooray!!! It’s the Fourth of July! I just read a sort of tongue-in-cheek (and somewhat inappropriate) list of supposedly über American things to do on July 4th. . . Since I didn’t appreciate the mocking tone all that much, I made my own personal July 4th to-do List, or, what I am calling My “JULY FO[U]RTH!”Continue reading “Go FO[U]RTH and Celebrate!”
Craigslist & Harry Potter
Today, while looking for a picnic table online, I found the most unique listing. . . It’s a little bit of a stretch, if you ask me, but I give them an A for effort!
Abdul Rehman
Someone named Adul Rehman, from Greece, hacked into my account on Paypal and bought a shit-ton of computer crap. And I am SO MAD. I even looked him up on facebook to see if I should send him some scathing messages. But there were more than one. They all look pretty shady to me. AbdulContinue reading “Abdul Rehman”
The United Kingdom: Inherently Magical?
Maybe it comes from watching BBC’s six hour Pride and Prejudice more times than I can remember, or perhaps it’s a result of obsessing with Harry Potter for the past, oh, ten years or so, but it seems that the exceptionally magical can only come from Britain these days. Seriously, perhaps it’s only because IContinue reading “The United Kingdom: Inherently Magical?”
If I Ruled The World. . .
There is a certain comfort in knowing that my students view me as a zany character. . . so I knew that it would likely be a colorful response when I asked them to create imaginative hypothetical situations where I am the Queen of the World. It gave me something to look forward to reading whileContinue reading “If I Ruled The World. . .”
Blog Lovin?
Have you ever heard of “Bloglovin’”? I am always in search of a way to make blog-reading less AD/HD and more manageable. I love Google reader, but sometimes I just forget to go check it, or when I do, I wind up distracted by every passing link! Well, then, as I was perusing the fabulouslyContinue reading “Blog Lovin?”
Woops. . .
Checking my e-mail today, I found an interesting message from my lovely landlord (truly – I adore my landlord) that I am absolutely sure I wasn’t supposed to receive! I probably wouldn’t even have read it, except I thought it was from my friend who has the same first name and last initial as my landlord. HOWEVER,Continue reading “Woops. . .”

Trespassers Beware?
Meandering my way around the back streets of small-town America, I saw the strangest roadside attraction. Perhaps “attraction” is the wrong word. . . something tells me this was intended to deter more than attract. There it was on the outskirts of the otherwise empty lot: a teddy bear on a pike. So I tookContinue reading “Trespassers Beware?”
