El Nino?

Weather's unseaonsalbly warm here. Usually I have to have my landlord turn on the heat right after Halloween, but it's now right after thanksgibing and I don't still need it yet. it costs a lot so I'm waiting, since it's gas heat. I read on CNN or something yesterday that it might be because of El Nino. Ah, it was Wudnerground.

Worst job?

What do you think is the worst job possible?

Sometimes I hate how as a teacher, I always take work home, all the time. But I like teaching, it's exciting, it's never the same, and I get summers off. ^_^ One of my friends has a classified job. Once she leaves the office she's not allowed to talk about it! I'd like having all my home time to myself, but I'd get sick of not being allowed to tell people what I do, including a spouse, parents, or children.

At least my job's not dirty.

blah

I've been sitting at home for the past couple hours doing absolutely nothing. well, surfing the web. that's maybe worse than nothing. :-P

Thanksgiving

So what's everyone doing for Thanksgiving? I'nm trying to get together with some friends to go drinking at a bar, and also to see Borat in a theater. I haven't seen them in a long time since none of them live in the same city as me anymore.

everything I say is true, i'm just being super lazy about how i say it and not putting in any details. i should say stupid MySpace type stuff. I think it'd make my head explode.

weather

the weather's been a mixture of unseasonably warm, and nastily rainy. i haven't had to have my landlord turn on my heat yet which is a good thing, b/c the gas heat costs way too much. i've just bene using the electric heaters. i think i'll wait till after thanksgiving to have the heat turned on since it'd just be watsted over the holiday

trash

I alwasy wonder if I should shred things like exams that i write before i put them in my recycling at home. it's legal to pick through people's trash, so how do i know some enteprising student isn't stalking me and pulling out drafts of my exams? then i realize it'd be a lot easier for them to breka into my office and steal them that way. ;-P silly me
