That’s What Friends Are For.
Posted by: missconstrued on: September 2, 2009
I fancy myself a bit of a riot, sometimes. I like to have clever little status updates. Or at least ones that do not say stuff like, “I just woke up and brushed my teeth, now I am doing some laundry.”
Having had Austin Power and Fat Bastard (is that his name?) on the brain, I [...]
Ridiculi, Ridicula…
Posted by: missconstrued on: February 2, 2009
Things that strike me as ridiculous at the moment:
1.) The media. Are we seriously still talking about Jessica Simpson’s jeans/weight gain? Lean in real close, I want to tell you something. Can you hear me? Are you looking at me? Okay, now get REEEEELY close, now, because I’m only going to say it once: GET!A!LIFE! [...]
Phobe.

Last night I got a text messsage from my cousin, telling me that I had better be good, and I know what she means.
*sigh*
Yes. I know what she means.
Don’t pick up the drink.
I! GET! IT!
And I suppose this is why I run away from family, because I don’t need ANYBODY telling me what to do, [...]
Knickers in a Knot
Posted by: missconstrued on: May 30, 2008
I must’ve gotten up on the wrong side of bed today, seriously. Even though I always get out THE SAME WAY.
Today, on AOL, they are running some fluff article about a teacher who is “more interested in affairs than arithmetic”. And it says that her story (gasp! scandal!) isn’t for kids. So I click over. [...]
Palm of My Hand

If I were Marge Simpson do you know what I’d be doing right now? That little “hrrmmmm” thing that she does, betraying slight discomfort.
I volunteered to be on the committee of teachers who select children (from the neighboring island) to come to our school. I didn’t think spending a day with 25 bright, sunshiny, youthful faces [...]
*Intermission*

Wow! Only 6 more days of story telling to go. I will say that this has been harder than expected…remember that story I told you about that guy that I dated? I went to Palau one summer and when I got back we went out together for dinner and I was describing the beauty and [...]
Randomated Thoughts
Posted by: missconstrued on: March 11, 2008
So. The weekend was fantabulastic, punctuated by my dry heaving over the bowl and feeling alternately nauseated by anything I may have haphazardly thrown in my mouth that day AND upcoming fetes at the public dining hall. Yesterday? When I went to check out a movie (Sydney White, for those of you that are curious. [...]
Don’t Know Much About History
Posted by: missconstrued on: November 7, 2007
So, this summer, I bought this handy-dandy little book called, “What Your 3rd Grader Should Know” or something along those lines. I studied them before I took the big teacher test in Arizona. All of them. All the way up to 8th grade. They are chock full o’ information that I had long forgotten. LOOOONG. [...]
A Rose by *ANY* other Color
Posted by: missconstrued on: October 22, 2007
It’s been a long time since I’ve been disgusted. It’s not an emotion I like to keep on my palette o’ whimsical moods.
Yesterday, as I was standing in line, there was a gentleman very loudly complaining about the line cutting that was going on (it was for some fish, which must have been MIGHTY good). [...]
A Change Would Do You Good.
Posted by: missconstrued on: October 19, 2007
When I was in college, I had a best friend. Pat. I thought he was a saint. He ironed me when I showed up at his dorm room drunk and crying, complaining that I was cold. He fed me when I was hungry. Came downstairs and talked to me when I (inevitably) fought with Michael. [...]
