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 ...

Plethoria: August 2014

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. Http:/ www.outlooksw.co.uk/sites/default/files/images/resources/Toilet%20Phobia%20download.pdf. Wait, my father is ALWAYS going to be watching me? So began the two step process ...

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.

The List So Far. On the Move →. June 26, 2007 · 9:43 pm. It is goodbye from me until August – I’m off to China for the summer! I would blog while I’m out there, but none of my friends there can access my blog so I suspect it is banned. Maybe because I blogged about unpopular Chinese authors. Anyway, that means no more posts from me until I get back. I wish everyone a great summer, whatever you do and wherever you are. Enjoy yourselves! On the Move →. 16 responses to “.

Plethoria: September 2013
http://plethoria9.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 12, 2013. I was at a team meeting today (since it is the first one of the year, we discussed students' various home life issues- - who DOESN'T have divorced parents in this day and age? And needed a sheet of paper to jot something down. There was a freshly discarded sheet of paper lying diagonally at the top of the recycling bin. I grabbed it, jot down my notes, and didn't bother to look on the other side of the paper. This paper was exceptional though. It was written by my co-worker!

Plethoria: Sounds of Suburbs
http://plethoria9.blogspot.com/2014/06/sounds-of-suburbs.html
Saturday, June 28, 2014. When we moved into the house, I guess I had this vision of complete and utter peacefulness. Sounds would be contained within people's houses and I would no longer have to deal with the nuisances of apartment noise: hearing arguments, lovemaking, praying, and television viewing between thin walls. Right now, on a Saturday morning, I can hear birds chirping. However, beyond that sound, I hear the noise of a saw (? Ultimately, I don't think it is a case of moving somewhere "quieter&...

New York Times Notable Book Challenge. A group blog for participants in the New York Times Notable Book Challenge to share their thoughts on the books they are reading. Monday, October 29, 2007. When you can eat just about anything nature has to offer, deciding what you. Eat will inevitably stir anxiety, especially when some of the potential foods on offer are liable to sicken or kill you.". The Omnivore's Dilemma, page 3. I have to admit that this book has sparked an intense interest for me to find loca...

New York Times Notable Book Challenge: Black Swan Green, by David Mitchell
http://nytnotablebooks.blogspot.com/2007/11/black-swan-green-by-david-mitchell.html
New York Times Notable Book Challenge. A group blog for participants in the New York Times Notable Book Challenge to share their thoughts on the books they are reading. Saturday, November 24, 2007. Black Swan Green, by David Mitchell. At first I found the book simply funny, and that was enough. Over time, though, I was won over by the compassion and sense of realness Mitchell gives to his hero. It's a lovely slice of England. And of adolescence. Labels: Black Swan Green. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
