    Despite a fairly morose summer, the last few days have been surprisingly pleasant.

    Last night I called my family to try and get a little money so I could buy lunch at my first day back to work (substitute teacher), and spent over an hour catching up with my favorite people in the family: My mother, aunt, and aunt's daughter (cousin), whom is a year younger than me. The majority of it was spent with the cousin, whom I grew up close to similar to a sister (having only had two older brothers who weren't that interested in a kid 10-14 years younger than them, cousin was one of the best blessings of my life for certain). I've been away from my family for about five years now, which is really rough since I miss them often, so I often avoided phone calls to not feel sad. Instead, this one just made me terribly happy and reminded me that one day I'll get to go home and be around them again. Not to mention they gave me about five times the money I asked for, so now I can buy a few much-needed things to get my year started off right (plus eating lunch at work).

    Then today I worked with my favorite group of kids, though my 8th graders of course have graduated and I had a new group of 6th graders. I was a little apprehensive about it as you can never tell what kind of kids you're going to get, but my 6th graders were not only extremely pleasant, they were very chatty and exceptionally intelligent. Four of the girls sat at the back table with me and while I helped them with their math, we discussed politics, state-wide issues, what's going on in world news, etc. They were extremely adorable, and I had a very good time - and of course, the rest of my kids were lovely, if a bit chatty (but hey, Friday before a three-day weekend is usually crazyville, so all things considered, not too bad). Not to mention a three day weekend ahead!

    On top of all of that, either Sunday or Monday, me, the boyfriend, and some of his family are going out to a local fishing spot that's quite gorgeous and quiet to fish, chat with family, and have a decent-sized cook out for Labor Day. I have not fished since I last fished with my own dad, ten years or more ago, so I'm fairly excited and interested to see how things go. Florida this time of year is terrible, but I'm hoping the weather plus the shade from the trees will keep things bearable.

    Hoping September brings lots of good things, both in and out of Achaea. Looking good so far. :)
    And I love too                                                                          Be still, my indelible friend
    That love soon might end                                                         You are unbreaking
    And be known in its aching                                                      Though quaking
    Shown in this shaking                                                             Though crazy
    Lately of my wasteland, baby                                                 That's just wasteland, baby

    Start the clock, I got this shit, yo.

    (except fuck snow, why you gotta bring that into it? Us Cali girls don't -do- snow.)

  • A bit of snow on the ground doesn't count as a blizzard. If it's a real blizzard, you ain't going anywhere anyway.

When the gods created man they allotted to him death, but life they retained in their own keeping. As for you, Gilgamesh, fill your belly with good things; day and night, night and day, dance and be merry, feast and rejoice. Let your clothes be fresh, bathe yourself in water, cherish the little child that holds your hand, and make your wife happy in your embrace; for this too is the lot of man."

    We've not taken even a day trip since last October, so to commemorate Labor Day @Kaie and I took a mini-vacation. We went to nearby Frankenmuth, MI where we ate large quantities of pizza and sorbet, shopped, and went to Bronner's Christmas Wonderland (the World's Largest Christmas Store -- over 7 acres of decorations, collectibles, trees, lights, creches, etc.) to start planning this year's Christmas decor (1970's retro!).

    Don't judge us: There are only 11 more Fridays until Thanksgiving!
    You went to Frankenmuth and didn't get fried chicken? Bitch.

    It is miraculous that I just somehow had an extra starter in my car!

    Also, lol @Jhaeli, I'm from Michigan.

  • Yeah, I'm from the Canadian prairies. I still say that it doesn't count if you can drive in it, no matter how great your snow tires.  :p

  • Finally going to see some of my childhood favorite jazz musicians play today. I've been listening to their records for years now and never thought I'd see them perform live. As if it didn't get better, it's completely free. ^__^

    Well, you can't just not say who they are. Citizens demand jazz.

    he's traveling around with a guy he calls "pervy sage" a wise old man he has to continuously save from females beating his face in because he peeked in their hot tubs for 'research' so he can write his latest novel.
    Aurora says, "Tharvis, why are you always breaking things?!"
    Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh."
    Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."

    Stopped in @Jinsun's city and had lunch with him and his lovely lady friend. He's really very nice but the food was nicer. I'm sick of Oklahoma fair food :( puke. If I see one more fried food item my heart will explode.


    (Jkjk. Jinsun was nicer than the food)

     yes, sir.
