37 more days of school! Then it is sweet freedom: sleeping late and
hit weather, oh baby!

Why is it impossible for me to go to a Red Sox game without getting in
a fight!! Every time!

Annoying drunk Tampa fans at the game, the best part---they werent
even drinking! Just screaming!

Go Sox!!

Tied 4-4 right now

Can you spot the gator?? This is 50 feet from my parents house.

All the kids here ride their bikes to school, this is their parking lot

Tuckered out at the marathon

Ahh florida. Flip flops and little league.

it was a weekend of famous people.

okay so, i had a birthday. i am now 25.

i also went to the women's olympic marathon trials and saw deena kastor, live and in person.





and then saw ryan hall walking in the mall, live and in person.






and went to the marathon expo, and saw peter reid walking down the street, live and in person.
(i may or may not have hung out the window screaming his name.)





and then i went to the marathon and saw lance armstrong, live and in person. (amongst others!)





and now i am packing for the EF-EL. i leave at 3:30, tonight at 7pm, it will be 90 degrees. suckers! enjoy your 40 degree night weather!!

and happy earth day, go buy a hybrid theres no sales tax today! (this is what mine looks like)

I am officially moving the date of my birthday this year. It will take
place on Monday the 21st now. Because 1) I came down with the most
wretched cold today, and I feel AWFUL. 2) if it was tomorrow I would
have to spend the entire day alone, no boyfriend, no friends, no
family, everyone is otherwise occupied!!
So now it is on Monday and I'll go shopping and go out to lunch and
get by hair did. And tomorrow well...I'll still be hanging out alone
but I'm telling myself its a mental health day to recuperate from the
school week!

My 6th period kids threw me a surprise party, they are so cute!! Then
one proceeded to smear frosting all of by face because (his words:) "
thats what black people do on birthdays!!" haha

The school mediator made this for me when he found out my birthday was
Saturday, so nice!!!

is it me, or is everyone else doomed to think of the Jessie Spano, "im so excited", caffiene-pill induced breakdown on Saved By The Bell EVERY SINGLE TIME THEY SEE ELIZABETH BERKLEY ON TV?!?!

i am a top chef addict, unforunately she is in every single commercial break on the bravo channel for some new dance show. its really unfortunate.

i love waking up on a sunday morning, and reading the updates on PostSecret with a cup of coffee.

on the schedule today: the boy is racing a half in westfield. and then i will ride my bike. i am debating making some soup too. oh, the excitement!

I can honestly say, I love my job.

why does facebook keep sending me phantom emails about messages?? it is driving me crazy. it sure is sneaky how they are getting me to log in and check the site every time though.

my flights are booked to FL for April Vacation (that is capitalized because it is a Very Big Deal). Tues-Sun. That way, I get to go to the marathon and see my fathers race!! Win-Win. and the flights are straight through so no annoying/stressful layovers. And! My fathers and my friend from up here, who I have known for years and years will be down that weekend, doing the race too, so I get to see him. DOUBLE AND, I get to go to a Sox game that Friday night. My week sounds swell doesnt it. Ill be 25, and totally digging life.

I just have to get to April Vacation without throwing myself out my classroom window. Okay Im (semi) kidding, the kids have been really good as of lately.

i just bought a Sudoku book. Better late than never on the trend, right? I figure its something to keep me in a math-y state of mind during my 2 hour midday break at school, but yet its not outright Algebra. Doing factoring in my spare time makes me sound like a crazy person.
