Tonight was the mark of the beginning of baseball season. Some of you probably just said to yourself: "So what?" I like to ignore people like you. I watched a little bit of the Braves vs. the Phillies game tonight and I am so excited. I love baseball season. If you have every heard the song "Summertime" by Kenny Chesney, you will know what baseball season and spring does to me. I have often mentioned to people that I am two different people. During the school year, I am teacher Alice who is a nice person but she is so not as cool as summer Alice! I love the green of the field, the taste of the hot dog, the sound of the bat on the ball and the good lookin' boys who play the game. It sure does something to me. My first softball game is this next Friday. So. Excited!
What else? Well, this weekend was nice. I have been in my pajamas since last night. That is right, I never even got dressed today. It was Conference Weekend for my church, which basically means you get to watch church on TV. It was nice. I enjoyed it.
Last night, I went up to spend sometime with my other mother and my sister from another mother, Anne and Sarah. We went and saw Paul Blart: Mall Cop, which is hilarious and not even crude like I thought it might be. We then went to Red Robin. That made two nights of burgers, fries, and Coke. I actually broke Lent. I am just not a good Catholic. Oh wait, I am not Catholic. Anyway, I decided that this year's theme of Lent was that of breaking it. It was liberating. I have had a rough go at it lately and March was a horrible month(besides my birthday week, that was good). The liberation of breaking Lent actually felt great. That could be sacrilege but I am okay with it.
Well, I best be getting off to bed. (I kinda feel like I am talking a bit like a Southerner...Maybe watching the Country Music Awards tonight effected me.) Go Carrie Underwood. She is awesome. She won both Female Vocalist of the Year and Entertainer of the Year. She rocks! Okay I am really out. Have a great night and enjoyable Monday. The only good things about Monday are 24 and Chuck. Funny how my life revolves around the TV.
It's Good Knowing You. Is it Friday, Yet? See Ya In The Future. Living the dream. Whatev. Live. Laugh. Love. Plant Smiles. Grow Laughs. Harvest Love. You Can Take The Girl Out Of Wisconsin But You Can't Take The Wisconsin Out Of The Girl. Glimpses. Love Generously. Praise Loudly. Live Fully.

Rain Makes Me Happy!
Looking around and seeing green grass makes me happy. Good thing something makes me happy, seeing that there is another winter storm heading our way and another for next weekend. SIGH. I do like how it is raining right now though. I love to listen to it hit the metal of my swamp cooler. IT is so relaxing to me. I think I am going to sleep well tonight.
I am glad it is Friday tomorrow. This week has felt really long. It has been a good week, it has just felt very long.
We had a staff against student basketball game today after school. It was fun to play. The first half made me worried that the kids were going to beat us badly, but in the second half we came back and won. Go us. Poor kids. We just can't be beat or we will hear about it for YEARS! It kinda, almost made me miss basketball season a bit, but not really. I am glad I am not as busy as I was during the season. We are still in the planning stage of a basketball banquet. Should be fun.
What else? Not much. I have been scrap booking a bit. Not much. Lately I have been tired and not motivated. I will have to work a lot this weekend!
Well, I think that is it for now.
I hope your life is peachy!

Happy Midweek!
Wow, my heels are really dragging these days. It must be that hard time before Spring Break. Why are they crazies around here and don't have break until mid-April? It is insanity. My friend, who is going to Vegas with me, called last night and we have made pretty solid plans for break. It is going to be very relaxing. No real plans to do much of the "tourist" stuff in Vegas. We are going to hang at the hotel a lot and maybe every once in a while go to the strip to see certain things...like the Belagio fountain!
I feel like there isn't a whole lot going on now. No excitement here. Just chillin'. So I will now go to work and you will patiently wait until there is excitement in my life. I think the recent winter weather has really been a downer for me. I just shut myself in and eat Cadbury Mini Eggs.

Blogging Slacker
Apparently my desire to be a regular blogger went on vacation for the weekend. I apologize for that. The weekend wasn't very exciting. I did a lot of hanging out in my apartment. I like my apartment.
Friday I played games with some friends.
Have I told you how awesome the movie The Secret Lives of Bees is? It is amazing and you totally should see it. Very artistically brilliant. Great storyline too! You should watch it. I watched it with friends last week.
What else? Not much here. Just cruising through each week getting excited for spring break which starts on the 15th. Yipee. I plan on just chillin' like a villain while in Vegas. My friend asked me the other day what I wanted to do in Vegas and that is how I answered. I am perfectly content with spending time in the pool, bowling(the hotel we plan to stay at has a bowling alley) and watching movies(the hotel also has a movie theatre).
Well, I am off to sleep so I can be cheery for another day tomorrow. Thrills. Is it summer yet?

Practically Friday.
Whew...it has been a long week. We only had kids at school four days this week but it has felt much longer. I am very excited to have a weekend. I think the burnout continues. :)
I had dinner last night with some real good friends. My friend Joanna is moving to Denmark at the end of the week. That is kinda sad to me but happy for her because she married a Danish man. I think I am going to have to find me some European man so I can move over there! Maybe the men in other countries are much less annoying and frustrating.
Well, I think that is it. Later.
