"Thank you for stopping by. The person sitting at this desk is merely for show. Her brain is already in teaching-mode. Please leave a message." Beep!

I still have over a month and a half left here, but I find myself caring less and less about my work product.  It comes and goes.  One minute I'm problem-solving, putting out fires right and left...and the next I'm watching Mark-Paul Gosselaar as Zach Morris on the Jimmy Fallon show via YouTube--which, by the way, if you haven't seen it, you're missing out.  Too funny.  Not "Motherlover" funny like Justin Timberlake's SNL bit, but still worth a viewing.

The little things are starting to annoy me, too.  Me, who has such a high tolerance for all things annoying and stupid.  I know.  I've alerted the media.

Anyway, to retain a bit of sanity I've decided to participate in this meme from E at Tear Stained Reflections:

Five Things That Make Me Happy

1.  My main squeeze!  The caramel in my macchiato.  The root beer in my float.  The Luke to my Lorelai.

2.  Coffee!  Vanilla hazelnut is my flavor of choice.

3.  My classroom!  I've been dropping things off over the past couple weeks.  I promised pictures last time, didn't I?  Okay, see below.

4.  Frasier!  I am in LOVE with this show.  I can watch it over and over.  Something about it is so calming.  And David Hyde Pierce?  Made that show.

5.  Super Chunk! The name of our future puppy (who incidentally is named after a type of peanut butter).  The main squeeze has finally agreed to get one (in the near-ish future).  Now I just have to talk him out of getting a bulldog.  They drool, snore and fart.  How would he be able to tell us apart?!  Although I probably burp louder now that I think about it.

As promised:

Very fantastic- I too am an avid coffee drink. Makes every day seem a bit sweeter.

#5 was definitely laughable.

re my blog: I have a google email account also and YES it is much better at filtering out spam than my Yahoo...I usually get about 5 per day in my regular mail with Yahoo. :p

I agree, to me it was more the Niles show than the Frasier show.

Very nice--looks like you could get very comfortable in there! Love the bookshelves!

Can't wait to see pictures of your puppy-to-be!

How exciting! No wonder you can't keep your mind on your current job. Have fun getting things set up!

1) I saw that live and it was weird- I didn't even know that was him on that TNT show!! But he hasn't changed, when he puts the hair on!!

2) May I link to you? I need to because I otherwise forget to go to your blog.... Lemme know.

Have you ever watched The New Adventures of Old Christine? I think it's hilarious. And I also like Frasier. We just might have similar TV tastes!
