I was replying to my discussion just a bit ago and we were struck by lightning. There were no storms predicted, so that is a shock. I may be going into work right away to sub. For safety I am shutting down my computer.

My brother texted me to see if I was going to need any money this month. I told him yes, probably, as they hadn't called me in to work (although school started just two days ago). He texted back and said I should call and let...

...though it didn't go too bad. My neighbor got me to the school, and I went to the office. I was told that I would be substituting for one of the "yard duties" for two hours. That was fine, though I was warned that the older...

I keep hearing about burner phones in a lot of TV Series. Our country doesn't have one of those. No one is selling them, I think. But if burner phones do actually exist, aren't they usually used as a mere tool to anonymously do...

I was assuming that my brother would come by either before or soon after I got home from church. It's now 6:14 by my computer clock, and no brother yet. Maybe something else came up. I'm assuming I'll see him sometime this week....

I've been up since about six. I spoke to a director the other day about an interview, and she said something about coming in at 8:30 a.m. For some reason, I wasn't sure in my head if that was the time of my interview, or the...

I am so exhausted in the evenings I often go to bed by 7:30. Then, of course, I wake up too early. I got up at 3:00 and had coffee for my headache, took a shower, let Tinker out, then in, then out. Then I lay back down until...
