Re: It has been soooo sloooooooow
We're officially the most boring board on TN rightnow.
I had to block someone on an ART (assisted reproductive technology) forum. Her SO (not even FI) had a vasectomy after his marriage, so she can't have kids with him now without doing some form of ART. People are posting about their emotional struggles with IF and she keeps saying, "Only you ladies know what I'm going through!!!" No, most of us are not infertile because of choices we made, so STFU.
She sounds like a dream. Yikes.
My sister left yesterday. I am sad, but I got to spend two glorious weeks with her. We had a great time. My favorite day was going to New York City to see a Harry Potter expo and then see Daniel Radcliffe's Play on Broadway. Best day of my life!!!(not counting the days I got my genetic test results and getting married) I was in heaven.
ETA:
What are some books you are reading right now MB?
Woah, Ojo. That chick sounds.......interesting.
I've had the most intense headache for the past 3 days straight and nothing I do seems to help.
Also, I would kill someone for a perfectly cooked steak right now.

I'm currently reading A Game of Thrones (George R. R. Martin)
Before that, I read The Black Dagger Brotherhood series (J.R. Ward), Waterfall and Cascade (Lisa T. Bergren) and then a whole bunch of random freebie books off Amazon.
I am eagerly waiting the release of Bloodlines and Succubus Revealed (Richelle Mead) at the end of this month.

I'm sincerely frustrated today. Allan was supposed to leave Monday for basic training because a spot opened up (long story), but apparently the paperwork wasn't completed for the other guy who was dropping out and whose spot Allan was taking. So now we have NO idea when he's leaving. It's very annoying.
Also, my cats know something is up and they're going batsh*t around the house
I loved Waterfall,
Did you like Cascade? I am debating on if I should buy it or not.
How is Game of Thrones going for you?
I really enjoyed Cascade and was all excited to buy Torrent when I discovered it wasn't released yet
I think that is coming out early next month.
A Game of Thrones is going more slowly than usual, though I am enjoying it. I watched the show so I keep drawing comparisons between the two instead of just devouring the book.

Ojo- wow she sounds a little on the failing to comprehend what infertility actually means.
I just found out today that I am head of k2-k4 curriculum. K2 I have to make all the lesson plans and everything for her, and I have a feeling she will be really pissy about it, but she was warned that if she kept doing nothing with the kids this would happen. I am the K3 teacher so that isn't a big deal obviously because I was doing my own curriculum anyways.
The the K4 teacher asked for help. She can at least do her own lesson plans but i just have to make sure she is doing activities that follow the standards. It is super nice to feel like my boss can trust me with this but it is also overwhelming as everything i suppose to be done by Monday and I just found out about my extra duties today. Plus I still have to organize my room the way I want it and i guess i need to start putting things up and what not in the K2 room for her. So my Saturday will be spent working off the clock more than likely to get this all done. (though I am totally going to try to talk my boss into paying the two of us that are coming in for this, me and the K4 teacher).
The Dogs and Us
I keep wondering why all the newbs who keep intro'ing don't do something entertaining.
Anyway, I loved the series so let us know how the book turns out.
I wish I could be more entertaining but my live is totally boring right now! School for me which is reading a lot of text books that are about a exciting as watching paint dry!
I will have some fun times when all of the students start arriving and I take them to their first ever Wal-mart trip. That is always fun. The sweet H gets to go along which is even more fun to see his reaction to all of that.
Sorry I could not be more fun with exciting stories. Perhaps next week after the Wal-mart trips.
Sorry I should have mentioned they are all international students. Opps left that out. Some from countries that don't have a Wal-mart.
HAHA I imagined you with a group of four year olds on leashes.
BAHHAAA close but thankfully no...HAA however you have provided me with much laughter this morning!
