Being sick is no fun. I had plans of being productive today (yesterday was my "Lazy Day"), but thanks to the stomach flu I have to sip on gatorade (to stay hydrated in 110+degree weather); eat crackers, chicken noodle soup, and applesauce; and watch TV (perhaps another Millionaire Matchmaker marathon, yes please!). Poor miserable me.
While laying in bed watching TV, VH1 was playing videos--I know, shocker right?!-- and my favorite artist of the moment (perhaps for the rest of my life) Kelly Clarkson came on. I absolutely love her music. She has a song for every mood (happy, sad, angry, in love, out-of-love), and Stronger is by far her best album, I pretty much like every song. "Dark Side" came on after some lame song, and while I was facebooking/playing an internet game--yes, I can multi-task--I took a break to watch because before then the videos were just background noise to my rumbling twisting stomach. I looked up and said "She looks uh-MAZING!" Check it out for yourself.
I also bought a magazine with her on the cover.

Summer Plans
I know it's been a long time since I last blogged, the reason partially because I've been busy with being a first year teacher, and because while my adventures in teaching have been superfun (and believe me worth discussing), I kinda like my job and would like to keep it. I do like my students, but sometimes they give me a rash.
My plans for the summer are simple. Teach summer school for 3 weeks (just to rack up a few more dollars to get me through July). And read. Oh to read again! The simple things in life are what I enjoy, and reading is simple.
So far, I finished a book I started in January, started a new book but didn't finish it, and started another book in the middle of the second book and just barely finished it. So you see, I am well on my way. I don't know if I will finish the second book; I am going to start the fourth book once I get some summer school lesson plans out of the way--I still need to focus and prioritze for a little bit longer, ugh!--and this is me just putting off the inevitable. Procrastinating is awesome!
Last night I was called a "nerd." I know it. I own my nerdiness. It took me awhile to accept it, but I at least have other hobbies, and friends... That's what's important right? Having friends?
