I appreciate the fact that you deliver me so many emails for both my job and my grad school program, I really do! It's just that, as much as I know that you're just trying to be helpful, I really do know how to spell my own name. Now, I know that you're going to insist that it's not your fault, but you won't let me add any words to the web based mail service... what's up with that?
Now, I know that we're kind of stuck with each other on a daily basis, both at work and in school. But all I'm saying is for you to please lay off, okay? Plus, I've never met anyone who spells their name the way you suggest, although I'm sure they exist and that they appreciate your trying to mainstream their name spelling. Are you up to something, Outlook?
I will be a grown up about this and will do my best to grin and bear it. We should be able to coexist. But Outlook, my patience is starting to wear thin. I think that you just wanted to know.
Best, Chrysanthemum (although you know my real name)
I just saw a VW commercial that reminded me of one that made me just want to go out and buy a Cabrio. It still makes me want to go out and buy a used one. Remeber this one?
Bobo's obsession with everything his big brother Logan does has finally gone to a whole new level. Yes, Logan pooped on Bobo's head because he was being nosey and wandered too close to the danger zone.
Needless to say, Bobo got a good scrubbing once we got inside.
This fall I have been awarded the position of adjunct professor in the department where I earned my undergraduate degree. I will be teaching Photoshop, Illustrator, and other graphics applications to underclassmen. It's a totally new thing for me, one I have never done before. I'm excited to embark on this new path.
In case you're wondering... no, I am not leaving my current job. The teaching gig is just a part time thing. One thing is for sure. Between The Boy and I, our jobs, the classes we take, and the classes we teach, it will be a busy, busy fall.
Some day things will slow down, right? That's the plan! All this effort is to help us accomplish our bigger picture goals for our life and family. I'm just going to do my best to enjoy the ride and try to stay sane.
I'm completely adventurous, passionate and neurotic...I have been accused of preferring the company of animals to people...I am a newlywed, married to the most wonderful boy in the world who loves me for who I am...I'm adjusting to my new last name...I cannot take a compliment very well...I worry, and I'm good at it...I love the way snow packs down under your feet when you step on it...
