    Of course it had to be the day that I had my computer and my 50 lb textbook in my backpack at the same time. That thing was heavy. I plopped it down on the black plastic chair, and prepared for my favorite class ever: Creative Drama For Teachers. Most of what we do is…

    Every once in a while I’ll get an idea for something I would LOVE to have. And then I go comparison shopping online like crazy, staying up into the wee hours of the morning. But the things I like are always too expensive and in the end, how can you know if something will work…

    The School sort of looks like a fortress. It is concrete and brick, with little dips in the tops of the walls. I think you could stick a gun through those dips, and shoot someone, without them being able to shoot you. You know, like the little slit windows in old castles. Also, there are…

    I wasn’t really a sponsor, just Dad’s little sidekick helper who’s always there to volunteer if he needs an extra person. I am not old enough to be a sponsor, you know. You have to be 21. So I guess, technically, I was just a visitor. Who also, you know, directed Group Bible Speaking and…

    A question: Why is it impossible to firmly believe that a Bible-believing Christian should NOT engage in homosexual activities, without being labeled as “homophobic?” Or a “hater?” Excuse me, the Bible says that homosexual activities are wrong. It also says that, (gasp) hating is wrong. Just sayin’ Also, is anyone actually afraid of homosexuals? Like,…

    No, I don’t recommend that you go find a vampire and try to reason with them. That would be silly, because vampires don’t exist. Unless you count the weird fad where emo teens bite each other hard enough to lick up a bit of their blood. You might want to reason with that sort of…

    I’m living off of eggs. I can’t to to my Grandpa’s funeral. And…after about ten tries I finally made it to the end of the month with enough money to pay next month’s rent. Without being dishonest. I had about five bucks left over. I had a lot of interesting comments on my last post.…

    Last night I dreamed that Lady Gaga wanted me to be in one of her music videos. She didn’t want me to wear my covering so I took it off but then I felt guilty. So I put it back on. The dumb thing would not go on straight. I just read an article on…

    Have you ever had a time in your life where everything was going reasonably well, except things having to do with blogging? No? Well it goes something like this: Your computer quits working… You have no camera or photography skills… You try to post and wordpress won’t let you link anything… You haven’t posted in…

    I tried to make this cushion cover but with fluffy stuff like cushion material and fabric there is a large chance that somewhere along the line your measurements won’t measure up and you will be left with a large pile of extra fluffy stuff on the floor. I am kind of sorry if that made…
