night and day

it's a cinnamon and spice oatmeal kinda morning
the kinda morning where i just want to stay in bed
cuddled up in the soft fluffy comforter
and the warmth of a loved one

instead i will force myself to wake up
since i am SO not a morning person
drive my pollution machine to where i need to go
and babysit middle schoolers

bye bye bottle caps

Bottle cap collection, you will be greatly missed, but it is time for you to make the long journey from the Corona bucket to the trash can.

We had quite a variety of caps.

Bert from Sesame Street would be proud.

early morning rage

it is 6:46 AM and there is a f***in Kenmore taxi cab sitting outside my building honking for his passenger, because he is too f***in lazy to a) get out of his car and ring the doorbell or b) use his phone to call this person. they probably live on the other side of the building and can't even hear this a**hole honking.

i'm also pissed because, as usual, this wonderful city which people think is so great and handles weather so well, has not sent the plows down Elmwood anytime recently, and hasn't sent it down Lexington AT ALL (because it never, and i mean never, sends a plow down Lexington, so we just have to drive in snow for days). i wouldn't care about the roads being messy so much, if i didn't have to drive to student teach! the last time it snowed and i had to drive to the school, i had an accident because the road was slick. that doesn't make me a happy winter driver. haven't you people ever heard of a snow day?

stupid 9-1-1

(e:drchlorine) 23:14 : 9-1-1 is a joke!

No kidding! I once called because I literally saw someone breaking into one of the lower apartments in my building, and 9-1-1 did not respond until 3 hours after I first called it in! The whole time I was thinking, "Man, I hope someone isn't dead in that apartment right now..."

fuck Buffalo

[size=s]I need to get out of this place, where libraries and parks are of no value.
There must be places in this world that are not centered around greed. [/size]

certification exams and the martini bar

Hooray! I have finally just completed my third and final teacher certification exam! This is one of the most relieving feelings in the world (pending of course, that I actually passed the exam)! To celebrate, we are hitting up the Martini Bar at Cecelia's on Elmwood, with hopefully a repeat of last weekend's fun adventures!
Here are some highlights from Feb. 18th:
