Eeeehhhhh!!!! and Don Juan....

Lewis Carroll came up with the totally awesome word "chortle"!!!! OMG ^_____^
If you don't know what chortle means... really, how could anyone not know... but, just in case you have been stuffed down a rotting log for your entire life, it's a crossbetween a chuckle and a snort.

Also, if you've never read Don Juan, do it...now! It's a conversation you"ll really enjoy!

A quick review of the first day for a few of my classes....

My College Algebra class was at 8am. I have Mr. Frank Hendrick, who apparently receives mixed reviews, as my instructor. I think he's great! He has a pleasing voice and  smiles a lot. If  you are teaching something  I suck at then you could at least give an encouraging smile ever so often. It  also helps that he is a male and I  seem to learn math better when presented by guys. Strange? Not really, look it up. Apparently my math brain functions more like a male's than a female's. Females can be just as awesome in math, but the female brain tends to process it differently, which effects how they teach it to others, etc.

My British Literature II class great, as expected. Dr. Grace Wilson is as wonderful as always. I am unfortunately already annoyed with my classmates (especially the idiot-wonder behind me). Ugh! I am super excited about the selections in the book

Ramble...ramble....ramble...

omg.-->>.. \_(ツ)_/..<<--.So  Cute.... anyway,  so  I've been thinking about family and why the bloody hell we tolerate and expose our tender egos to them even when we know they will do naught but harm us.

When I think of those "glass house" people, I picture various members of the family. They are exceptionally hard on outsiders and don't understand the idea that some folks just think differently. They are completely egocentric and ethnocentric and painfully prickly in temperament. If somethings goes wrong in their lives then the world owes them for its abhorrent cruelty--as no suffering should ever come upon them in their holiest perfection. In reality they're just ridiculous little crows.

Praise be to ye gods that....

that simply dreadful Christmas thing is over. It does precious little "in house" other than remind people like me of just how finantially troubled, misunderstood, undervalued, and horribly tender skinned we really are. So, to better prepare for the coming year, I have made my offerings. Oh, and I have also developed one serious grrring at the local misshappen Catholic Church--no, I'm not Catholic--they do not hold a midnight mass for Christmas....what's up with that? I was really looking forward to going to it :(

New blog news!!!

I dropped "My Pretty Excuses" blog because I didn't like it so very much. However, I have added a new one. "At Least 100 Words Baked Fresh Daily" is the new one which is devoted to motivating me to write at least 100 words per day of new material. We perfect our arts, gifts, and talents through the pursuit of their perfections...correct? The longer works and those for school will still be posted on "These Words Etched In Dust", and I may consider adding my forced essays for my classes to that one...maybe. But, my rambling bits of opinionated nonsense can still be found here. Anyway....both new and old can be reached by clicking on those buttons over there -->
