Since I promised myself to write more often then I will do just that. The only problem lately is a time crunch. Today will be super busy with a district meeting out of my building (which is fine - I needed a time out from that place right now anyway) and...

There’s no way I’m going to post about something as lame as cheap implants but I was out of titles and I thought it would humor my good friend, Avitable. He’s easily entertained. BUT! He’s been giving me shit about not posting regu...

I’m just standing. Minding my own business. Near a wall where a guy is also standing. I am absentmindedly thinking of the thousands of things my brain is running over at the beginning of my day.
“Are those real”
My eyebrows raise. I sta...

Man, you people are DEMANDING. But since time is short (since, yeah, I just got dressed and am actually heading out the door right after pushing “publish” and sorry, I couldn’t show the shoes right now) all I have time to say is that I...

Hello. May I help you
Oh. Not yet. I’m just looking for a dress.
What’s the occasion
I have to chaperone prom this weekend. See the excitement on my face No, you don’t. Because THERE IS NONE.
Well, what kind of dress are you looking f...

Mediation is one of my favorite things to do in my job. I’m not even shy in saying that I’m really good at it. When my students are having a conflict that is worth discussing then I’m always ready to sit down with them and act as their m...

Some days are definitely better than others in my line of work, but who isn’t that true for among the working On my last post Angie asked me a question that I’ve been pondering ever since I read it:
How do you renew yourself
I responded in t...

It’s been too difficult to write lately and so I haven’t done it. Virtually anywhere. The thing is, I can write about anything and then I am reminded: people are watching. Sometimes they’re just looking at my writing. Maybe they’re...

I’m trying to be a better blogger but there’s this THING, y’all. There’s this JOB. And this gaggle of kids I have. They’re all pretty awesome and I can’t quit them just like a gay guy can quit another gay guy.
Too far

Like many folks I tuned in to watch Oprah’s show yesterday. I did so because I wanted to see my friend Karen of Chookooloonks since I knew she was going to be featured. As usual, she didn’t disappoint. She was easily the funniest woman on the ...

Last year, at this time, I wrote this.This year all I’m saying is that I continue to love my thirties. Oh, and this:
Dear Kelly,
You’re doing alright. You’re not screwing it up. You love your family and your friends and your job. You are...

To list all the changes I’ve gone through in the last year and a half is more than this space could handle and more than I’m willing to write down at this time. Without going into much detail I can safely say that many of them are of the self-...

Different professions probably have their own certain phrases that are used so much they become a part of the everyday speech. I imagine that every time the guys at the garage see me coming in to have something fixed or replaced on my car they all mumble,...

It seems very strange for me to begin this post with, “Man! Y’all do some really stupid stuff!” but it’s true. I’m sorry. You do. But it’s ok! I do, too! All the time. I’m probably doing something stupid right now...

Puh-lease. I couldn’t go braless. It’s not fashionable anymore. That was so last year.
I’ve been doing this blog thing for a while. I’ve been in education longer.
I am always touched by the lovely comments people leave when I start...

Frankly, I was surprised by the number of comments this post evoked. Many of you asked for a follow up. This is all I’ve got.
Anna came to see me today. She waltzed in the office but when she saw me looking at her she slunk her shoulders and looked ...

It’s been a long week of travel and business and it culminated with flying back in to St. Louis on Saturday. Mallory graciously agreed to pick me up even though she was in St. Louis hanging out with former college roommates and friends so letting he...

If you’re in the Pasadena, CA area and would like to come out for a SoCal party/mixer that Jeremy Pepper put together in my honor, please do! We’ll be at Lucky Baldwin’s this Friday night starting at 7 pm.
There’s a Facebook page f...

Today was one of those days when I really wanted to sleep in late because there’s a new sinus infection brewing in my upper facial regions that I’m considering making a phone call to Ripley’s Believe It Or Not just to get them to come sh...

I have to tell you about Anna (obviously, not her real name). She’s been haunting my every thought lately.
She’s missed 47 days of school this year. Last year she missed 35 so she’s far surpassed the truancy of her freshman year. The thi...
