I am a VERY modest person. Definitely more than most! The only males who have ever seen me naked were doctors (and that was in my car accident- it mortifies me and I’m thankful that I don’t remember that!)(at least as an adult- I guess technically I was naked as a baby, but I don’t [...]
Tonight on Grey’s Anatomy, Justin Chambers/Alex Karev (as the narrator) made a comment: Trauma always leaves a scar. (Or something like that, I don’t remember it exactly.)
Anyway, that got me to thinking about scars. I have my fair share of scars. There’s a scar on my knee from when I fell off my bike when [...]

My heart goes out to the family of Natasha Richardson tonight.
I know I usually don’t write about or even pay attention to the goings-on of the glitterati, but this one is different. This one [...]

I skipped prom. Many people, when they found out I was not going to prom, would tell me (with an utterly foolish amount of shock) “how can you miss prom? it’s the best night of the best year of your life!” I am VERY happy to say that [...]
I noticed below that a spam email got sent to my “secret” email address and published on this site. Sorry about that… I will change my secret email soon. Until then, I apologize if any more spam emails get through.
It’s been a great weekend- quiet but there’s definitely nothing wrong with that! I’m working my [...]
To those of you who recognize the origin of this title, kudos to you for knowing your kiddie lit! (to those of you who don’t, just google it.)
This has been a very long and not so good day. I subbed in a crazy 6th grade math class that was wild. Then I went to this [...]
Today has been delightfully quiet. I actually went to work today… When I woke up, I was SO TIRED and so tempted to call in sick! But I didn’t, and I got out of bed, fed kitties, and went to work, and I’m grateful for it. Today was an easy day… at least, as far [...]
I got into my first car accident shortly after I got my license at age 16. It’s not as bad as it sounds, though; the accident was not my fault. In fact, I was hit by another teenage driver in my high school parking lot. This girl backed her car out straight into mine. Irritating [...]
I have had dry skin on my hands since I was 17. It’s odd but I can remember exactly when it started – right after my car accident at age 17. I’ve read that some doctors call this “hand dermatitis” or “hand eczema”. Personally I call this annoying!
When I was in college, I didn’t take [...]
When I had my car accident at age 17, I very nearly got to ride in an air ambulance. I wound up going to the hospital in a standard ambulance, because the roads were coated in ice and the air ambulance was unable to land.
However, I’m very thankful for the very existence of air [...]
