Strung Up in a Strong Light: How I was in the beginning
http://strungupinastronglight.blogspot.com/2013/07/how-i-was-in-beginning.html
Strung Up in a Strong Light. How I was in the beginning. In ninth grade, at a new school (we moved in the middle of my eighth grade year), a friend took me to a junior high basketball game to flirt with a boy she liked. At that game, an eighth grade boy told me I looked like I could perform a certain sex act very well because of the shape of my mouth. I was fourteen. Hypocrite in a Pouffy White Dress, Susan Perkins-Gilman. What was wrong with this world? Where were people's priorities? Be dedicated, enth...

Strung Up in a Strong Light: New Year's Day
http://strungupinastronglight.blogspot.com/2013/01/new-years-day.html
Strung Up in a Strong Light. I had a solid plan to write a long reflective post today about 2012 and it's struggles, what I learned, how I am hopeful about 2013 and how there is simply no way the inverse is going to deal me mother shitty year. Whatever 2013 has in store, I suppose it can go up from here. At least "Drive Me Crazy" is on HBO. Melissa Joan Hart and Adrien Grenier are a match made in teen movie heaven.

Strung Up in a Strong Light: Christmas
http://strungupinastronglight.blogspot.com/2012/12/christmas.html
Strung Up in a Strong Light. My family has a rich tradition during th holidays. Christmas Eve is almost always at my Nanny's (maternal grandmother) and because her four daughters all live in Salina, we have a houseful. Good food, gifts for the children, great conversation, and the pure peace that comes from being surrounded by people you love. Love love love one another. It is the only thing that matters.

Middle of the Middles: May 2013
http://adaviscew.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Middle of the Middles. Wednesday, May 8, 2013. Guilty pleasure time: I still watch Glee. I also still watch Grey's Anatomy. I watched every episode of Private Practice. Until it was finally and mercifully cancelled, and I love The Office. And will probably cry when it's over even though it jumped the shark long ago. but none of those are relevant right now. This is about Glee. In all honesty, I don't really *enjoy* Glee. And/or Parks and Recreation. But this is about Glee. And as those kids sang their re...

Middle of the Middles: Silly poem is silly
http://adaviscew.blogspot.com/2012/02/silly-poem-is-silly.html
Middle of the Middles. Wednesday, February 8, 2012. Silly poem is silly. In American Lit 2 yesterday, we were reading Imagist poems to kick off our Modernism unit. While our textbook can be the bane of my existence at times (I can't wait until I have time and energy again to go out on my own and supplement that sucker! It does have a fun little selection from Des Imagistes. The kids enjoyed the short and sweet (and accessible! Images of poems like " In a Station of the Metro. This is just to say.

Middle of the Middles: A Change Will Do You Good
http://adaviscew.blogspot.com/2012/07/change-will-do-you-good.html
Middle of the Middles. Monday, July 2, 2012. A Change Will Do You Good. Dear New Resident of A10,. Invest in accoutrements for your amazing new bathtub. It’s big, deep, and perfectly engineered for aquatic reading. I suggest a waterproof pillow and a good bubble bath mix. You will absolutely need a new showerhead. The one that comes with the place will peel your skin off. The acoustics in there are perfect for making you sound like Adele, by the way. The stairs are good for that, too. The view is great f...

Middle of the Middles: September 2011
http://adaviscew.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Middle of the Middles. Tuesday, September 6, 2011. I can’t get it through my head that someone loves me. Actually loves me. In a happier-when-you’re-around, reach-for-you-in-my-sleep, sweep-the-nasty-bugs-out-of-your-entryway-for-you-without-complaining kind of way, and he shows me and tells me every day. This blows my mind. So I’ll try to write about it and hopefully it won’t be overwhelming or incomprehensible. ;). The mirage of waving white satin. And a diamond sparkling in the sunlight.
