almost a year

Well...

My sister just informed that it has been almost a year since my last post. This tells me a couple things: one; my sister looks at my blog hoping that I have posted something new; and time goes by way too fast...it seems like only yesterday since I wrote that lost blog. Well a lot of things have gone on in that time, but nothing too interesting has happened to me. I feel as if I am going thought a mid-mid life crisis...but I wouldn't really consider it a crisis because that makes it seem as though I am worried or feel as if my life is out of my control. Neither of which I feel is true. But it does sort of scare me that I am will be leaving the safty zone of school. I am excited to move on with the next part of my life though. I just feel like there is way too much I want to do and that I won't ever have the time nor the opportunity to get it all done. If I only had a lot of money and could take about a year off and travel around the United States with my dog and my jeep. After that I would have to leave Nelly in the care of my sister jennifer because then I would be going overseas for a bit. I would get a backpack and travel all though Europe for about 3 or so months. While I am gone I will blog more so everyone can keep up to date on my travels. So if anyone happens to be pushing "next blog" and come across this....feel free to contact me if you want to donate to my of self/word exploration cause.

Two people that I know have had sisters die within the last month. Each time it made me cry. Not because I was great friends with the peoplel who died, but because I couldn't imagine what their sisters and families are going through. One sister died very unexpectantly and the other died slowly but fast from cancer...if that makes sense. Each time I imagined how I would handle that if something happened to me like that...each time I had to stop thinking about it. I've never had anyone close to me die. I've known many people that have passed away, but none that I would consider close. Which is a good thing don't get me wrong. I am just so scared on how I will deal with it....mabye I will find God..who knows. Hopefully I won't have to worry about it for a while. Oh by the way Nelly has bad gas...and its not leaving..more like lingering. Ok, well I guess I will say hi to my sister Jennifer since I am pretty sure she is the only one that will read this..so "HI"! But I do enjoy blogging just to let things out of my head. There was a preview just on for a new movie "blades of glory" and it looks like a "cutting edge" gone wrong. its with jon heder (napolean) and will ferrell...they are the first male duo in figure skating. The preview was funny. Ok, well I am going to go and do something productive like get on myspace.--later

KY v. STL

Why murray KY, is a whole lot different then living in St. Louis MO..here we go..

there is no one hired to pick up rode kill (and trust me there is a lot)
kids here wear camo, not because its stylish but because they went hunting before school
if we get an inch of snow...EVERYONE freaks out (besides those of us from ''bigger" cities)
all of murray KY is a giant breeding ground for cats
Heavy traffic consists of waiting in a thick five minutes of traffic
Big trucks are very cool
college students "dip", "spit" in class and highschool kids carry the stuff in their back pocket (like its normal)
people have yard sales everyday (the same houses)

thats all for now, I'm sure I will think of some more later.

glitterati

n: wealthy or famous people whose lifestyle is usually expensive and well-publicized: celebrites

this was my word of the day...i am pretty sure it was named after paris hilton. the face that she got her own word in the dictionary really bothers the magoes out of me. oh and by the way nelly pooped twice in the house today...not good. but i can't get mad when she gives me that look like are you going to be angry at me cause i didn't mean it i just had to go..you know how it is. and i just give her love and tell her its ok. anyway starfruit we won our game tonight...the refs suck again..but whats new after five years i am used to it. well i am all sweaty and stuff so i better get in the shower..oh and i jammed my fingernail (it bent back and bled uncontrolabally) yikes stripes fruit stripes gum. goodnight sisters! love you! theresa

good day

this morning started off with a bang..well not really but it was weird. I woke up at like 6:30 looked at the clock and then my phone to make sure I didn't miss a call from the school system I sub in, no missed calls. Some thoughts then poured into my half awake head...first of them being releif because I can sleep in, 2nd being damn after I wake up I will be bored and wishing I got called in...then before I got to the thrid I believe I fell asleep. I then proceeded to have a dream about getting called in and accepting the p.e. sub job for the day and she told me to bring my snow shovel because after school i have to shovel snow for minimum wage. Before I could ask her any questions my phone rang (in real life, not dream life). It was the sub lady (thats what she is referred to in my phone)..oh and she has her own uplifting its 6 in the morning ringtone. It took me a second to realize that i was no longer in a dream and then i was confused if there was snow even on the ground...so after about two-three seconds debate I answered my phone and told her I could work today. So after that I sorted out what had just happened within the last ten minutes it is now 6:40, leaving me very little time to get ready and leave so i got up and went to sub. It was good day. After school i had to go straight to the weight room and supervise the team lift and make some annoucements, I then went and ordered some flowers for our coach and his wife, they just had a baby (2lbs) it is in ok health and has to stay in the hospital for 8-10 weeks. Yikes. then i made some dinner for nell and i, took a nap. Woke up by mary asking me if she could come over and deficate in my commode because their plumbing is not working properly, of coarse I told her yes, she just had to bring me some chocolate. And she did...it was good! Well i best be going we have our first intraumural basketball game tonight and we are taking it pretty serious this year..intramurals are great, you never run out of eligiblilty! take care.

Why I love my Dog

Well hello again...
So I think I might blog on a regular basis...I sort of like it. Even if know one reads it, it will be here for me. So this one is about why I love my dog. First of all I didn't even mean to get this dog Nelly that I have now. She was supposed to be my roommates dog...but as so fate has it I ended up with her and I am so very happy. Nelly is some sort of mix between a Mountain Feist and a miniture pinscher..sp?? She is basically a crazy squril hunter...she is a bundle of joy. It doesn't matter if I am not home for 5-6 hours...she doesn't think that I forgot about her, she is just so excited that I am home! She loves when I bring her home somthing special and she loves when I cook her dinner. She loves that I know that its not her fault if she has an accident in the house when I am gone over six hours....and I love that she will go to sleep no matter what time it is. She is just lovely. Especially living by myself....she will listen to me no matter what the hell I have to say and she never talks back she doesnt' even waste her time giveing me silly advice. She chases her tail and has a blast..Ok that is enough...but pretty much she is great and along with my other dog "boo boo" who is recently with her other parent, are the best dogs I have ever had! well ihave to make some people run at six in the morning so i best be getting to sleep...oh by the way I also love my friends and I love singing Celine deion in the car on the way to Hardees...holler mary and katie!!! love you guys...goodnight!!

My first Blog (original I know)

Well,
I only signed up on here so I can post some comments on my sisters blog but it sent me to this page so I decided I would write a little something here. I am currently watching the movie "colors" with a very young Sean Penn. Its a movie that you should not watch on basic cable, you miss half of all conversations. I didn't get called in to sub today, and when that happens I am left filling my day with mostly useless activites. Except today I actually got some stuff done, I started on getting my Missouri certification for summer school and eventually teaching, I made some important phone calls, went tanning, worked out, and played two games of horse with my friend Mary. ( i lost both games) We are training for our intramural league that starts Wednesday. And now that leaves me here. Well I had lunch....oh and the sweet potatoes that you buy in the plastic wrap that you can just stick the microwave are amazing...thats what I had for lunch. I have to go supervise my team while they lift weights at 3:30 and then its off to my night class in Paducah (abnormal psychology) should be fun. INtill next time (don't wait up).
