Plethoria: What I hate

http://plethoria9.blogspot.com/2014/11/what-i-hate.html

Sunday, November 30, 2014. I know that one of the guidelines for contentedness is to avoid complaining or making negative statements. Since I am aware of that tenet, I think it is acceptable for me to rant about things I detest. Also, I haven't blogged for awhile. It's significantly easier to get back into my blogging routine if I just can post about things I loathe (for the first entry, at least):. 4 The length of football games- The constant stopping of the clocks- I can't stand it. John says that ...

Thursday, August 21, 2014. It ain't a hobby, it's a job". And then there was Eddie. Eddie would sit for hours and play scratch off lotto. One day, I commented to him, "Geez, lotto is really a big hobby of yours." I said it cutely and innocently, but he responded sharply, "This ain't a hobby; it's a job.". I still work hard at my teaching job and haven't decided on the lotto being my job just yet. What I would do if I won is an interesting question to ponder. Friday, August 15, 2014. I have a few quotatio...

Plethoria: September 2014

http://plethoria9.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html

Thursday, September 11, 2014. So I googled "toilet phobia." I googled it because I, for many years of my life, actually did have a slight. Fear of using bathrooms. After googling, I was expecting a search result that would be a single word which would mean "fear of using bathrooms." I found out that the issue is far more complex.

Plethoria: Inspirational Memes and Daily Emails

http://plethoria9.blogspot.com/2014/08/inspirational-memes-and-daily-emails.html

Friday, August 15, 2014. Inspirational Memes and Daily Emails. I'm not against inspirational quotations, but instead of posting tons of daily memes, what about walking around with a scant amount of them perpetually in your mind? I have a few quotations that I keep in my permanent memory. These have been with me for years- -now that I am in my 30s, I can even say that these quotes have been with me for over a decade. Humor will act as a catalyst to purify the tragic"- Aristotle. Add cWhy the hell I chose ...

Plethoria: March 2014

http://plethoria9.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Monday, March 24, 2014. In short, I've made an artform out of peeling citrus. The over consumption of citrus often leads to my lips having pseudo-lip liner around them. I realize that temporarily putting a moratorium on citrus consumption will rid me of the crimson lips, but I don't care. I'm stubborn. Right now my lips are ultra red. I look like I had "the works" done via Botox. In other words, I look like Goldie Hawn. There is also a crude term for what my lips now look like : DSL. Hot people age well.

Have fun stormin' the castle! Saturday, December 31, 2005. 1 Be more blithe and even less correct. 2 Renew my commitment to my inner French girl. 3 Watch every fresh episode of "Gilmore girls". 4 Read at least 3 books that I've never read before. 5 Practice "Minuet in G Major" by Bach almost every day until I get it nailed. 7 I suppose I could stand to eat more vegetables and less bread. 8 Do a much better job of gardening. Like actually plant stuff. 9 Spend 15 minutes a day doing absolutely nothing.

Have fun stormin' the castle! Wednesday, August 31, 2005. There are essentially two sorts of travelers: those who can't understand why the place they're visiting isn't like home and those who seek to learn something new by shaking up their routine. I like to think I fall in the second camp. Thus, being in Dallas was an opportunity to see how a large segment of our society live and think. Cobbled together by Moi at 7:36 AM.

Have fun stormin' the castle! Tuesday, January 31, 2006. The Child was poised with a double diagonal and had the President only uttered the words "small business initiatives" she would have skunked me. As it was, I slid in with "no child left behind". The Child felt the speech overall to be boring but she enjoyed tallying the number of times W winked at people. I was interested in/amused by the following:. God help, I mean, bless, America. Cobbled together by Moi at 7:55 PM. The Child goes to an excellen...

Have fun stormin' the castle! Wednesday, November 30, 2005. Here are just a few of the headlines from this morning's NY Times:. Investigation says Russians Acted Ineptly in School Raid. An investigation of the terrorist attack on a school in Beslan in 2004 criticized law enforcement agencies for an uncoordinated rescue effort. US Set to Loosen Rules on Objects Allowed on Airlines.

Have fun stormin' the castle! Friday, September 30, 2005. The big news: Yesterday, while The Child was in choir practise, I started going through all the material I had, to assess where I was. That's when I realized that I really am almost done with this book. Seriously. Within 2, maybe 3 chapters. I made more progress in spring than I realized. And you thought I was going to say something about Tom DeLay. Cobbled together by Moi at 1:51 PM. Thursday, September 29, 2005. Because I didn't get a running st...
