you are in my blood you're my holy wine

She said go to him
Stay with him if you can
But be prepared to bleed
Oh but you are in my blood
You're my holy wine
You're so bitter and so sweet
I could drink a case of you
And still I'd be on my feet


frostburg graffiti is pretty tame. my favorite is "Sleep" all over main street.

lo que mas quisiera bebe...

Waiting for my friends to stop having lives so that i can get out of my apartment.

I love owls. if anyone has anything to say about owls, I seriously want to hear it.

bienvenida a tijuana

In case you haven't been lucky enough to experience twelve degrees, it's indescribably cold.
This is on my walk to my car every morning, so I'm always very well informed of the temperature in Frostburg at 7:15 am. What a wonderful life I lead.

Today is Ash Wednesday and we had a very nice prayer ceremony at school. Working at my school makes me think about religion more than I'm used to, which is a good thing. So for Lent I am limiting myself to two hours of TV a night. I'm going to try to read more ( and honestly I will try to read a little bit of the Bible I got when I was 10 and have never cracked the cover of. )

I have been able to talk to Lauren online a few times this week which is great I cannot wait to go to PV to see them. They are some of the best friends I've ever had.

I think the awful school lunch I had today made me boring. I'll do better next time.

it hardly matters

Welcome to my front yard on a snowy Monday.
I live above the Palace Theater right in the heart of Frostburg. I love where I live.
Today was more of the same. Things with Clint are rockier than usual, but at least Olivia and I are getting back together.
I talked to Lauren online which made me very happy, and I took a very cold walk around my neighborhood.
Every morning there is weather I walk to my computer saying "I would pay a million dollars for a two hour delay." I bet the school board could make some sweet dolla-dolla bills if they took bribes for school cancellations and delays.

Top Chef- I love Carla and I hope she wins big time. Stefan sucks.

en este mundo hay mucho confusion...

Spent last night getting margaritas and playing scrabble and catchphrase with tyler. sad he's moving, we're on the same wavelength which makes me happy. some gems from the scrabble game: pud, pud, qutoad, zen, toenail, uvegd, oxe, and feren.
there was a bomb threat at my school so about 40% of the students were there friday. waste of a day if you ask me, but it was relaxing to spend 2 periods playing volleyball with the highschoolers.
other than that, life has been going on as usual. it feels good that i'm closer to the end of the school year than the beginning.
i'm trying to get in shape and stop being such a fatty manatty. i'm eating better and working out as often as possible.

real housewives of nyc.... alex and simon's kids are awful.

i've got this feeling that i've been here before

I graduated from Frostburg in May with my degree in history. Rather than going to Momma's to work at some restaurant before going to Mexico in August as per the plan, I decided to stay in Frostburg to stay with good ole Clint. We have been dating since April and as of... May I was not ready to turn that relationship into a long distance one. So I worked at a restaurant in Frostburg with some really great people. Getting into July I started thinking about what I'd like to be doing. The arguments were either go to Mexico, leave Clint, drain my savings, but live with two of my best friends who make me love life OR find a job around Frostburg, get a little experience and stay with Clinton. So I kept my eye on the papers looking for a job, and if I happened to find one and get hired, then that was it, Mexico off, Frostburg on. Lo and behold, "HS Spanish and Math teachers needed. Send resume to..." Long story short, I got the job at Bishop Walsh School, a PreK-12 Catholic school on a hill in Cumberland, MD, and Mexico was offsies. Wah wah.
So here I am, teaching Spanish (and one history class) at BW and being a grown up. I have a wonderful apartment in Frostburg and a few wonderful new friends and my Clint. That's pretty much it for the logistics of my life, can be summed up in two sentences.
Right now I am anxiously anticipating a recently planned trip to Mexico over Easter break and watching "That Thing You Do" on tv.
I will post more about a super top secret subject tomorrow once it is released to the public.
