About Me

I love my job as a middle school English teacher. This is my 4th year and it's getting better and easier every year. In 2006, my mom passed away suddenly from congestive heart failure. In 2007, we lost our baby, who was stillborn at 7 months. I'm hoping we've had enough bad luck! My goals this year include writing my novel, continuing to write poetry, have a healthy baby, getting another tattoo, and cleaning my house. Follow me on my crazy journey.

Sponges and tongues are frequently misspelled. Is it because both are thirsty?

No, it's because the English language is crazy, and too many people don't pay attention in English class.
