I wrote last week about 3 members of the Baking Club raiding my snacks and sitting back in my prep room on the couch talking. 2 of the 3 are former students of mine who know better than to mess with me. There has been a boy who...

While we’re in the neighborhood, let’s head on over from L.A. and visit Hollywood! Here’s another song from the long list of tunes that reference the movie capital of the world in title or lyrics. [b]Say Goodbye to Hollywood -...

Hello everyone. I hope your day has been going well. It is 58 degrees F and sunny here at the Jersey Shore. It is typical weather for this time of year but still too cold for me! Bring back summer. It was a quiet day. Nothing bit...

I had heard of it before but didn't experience it until August. I was on my spa vacation and just couldn't stop moving my legs because they (and my feet) hurt so much. I was up until like midnight talking to my roommate and then I...

I believe many of you already know Emoci and P.T. from when I used to be here, but Jerry will be new fur to you. Jerry is a feral/stray that I have been patiently working with for a few months hoping to eventually get him to...

NJ Chicaa He will eventually. I was gone from here for 2 months. My scaredy cat Adso was never seen by anyone who came here to clean or care for the cats. Within minutes of when we got back the little creep was all over me.

I used to not dread getting the electric bill like I do now. But here we are, livin' the dream...anyway. Some of you may remember that for a month this summer, my central air was down, waiting on parts and repair. We ran a...

My Turkish hairstylist used to charge $245 for hair color and highlights, haircut, and blowout. After he moved to a different location, he now charges $265 for the same thing. And then I usually give him a $5 tip. When my...

NJ Chicaa A $5 tip is almost an insult. It should be 20%

Elmo already embarrassed himself with the exceptionally ugly and underperforming Cybertruck. I think I read that they were going to stop producing them. I roll my eyes whenever I see one on the road. Now Tesla/SpaceX is making a...

. . . $750! And that is just the AVERAGE. They also said that people are stretching out car loans to 7 years to try to get monthly payments down. That is absolutely crazy! I know my sister bought a Ford Expedition a couple of...

You don’t see it here in the menu, but I had veal piccata for dinner, and key lime pie for dessert. Chilled Strawberry and Chia seed soup was my appetizer. No one can get shrimp at our table because my dad is allergic. They are...

Well thank Darwin for the weekends to catch up on rest. I always say it is inhumane to have people showing up to work in the dark. It is awful for the students too. I have 1 student who falls asleep multiple times during 1st...

NJ Chicaa Yeah it is normal for high schools. Have to be done early so sports and clubs can happen. We have to be in by 7am and are out at 1:35pm. We are supposed to stay until 1:50 but few people do. I'm back here usually by 2pm. I often beat the buses out.

Our @FourWalls loves to tease me when she posts songs by them. I have no shame in posting puke face emojis in response. 1) Steely Dan--I just cannot with them. I used to work at The Gap and we'd have a monthly CD of music that...

NJ Chicaa If I say "nope" it means I haven't heard of the singer or song. If I say "slope" it means I've heard of one or the other. "Yup" means I know both the singer and song. Doesn't always mean I like it though.

Chilled mango and pear soup. That’s the appetizer I had, which I absolutely loved so much I wanted to be gauche and lick my bowl clean. Then I had the swordfish followed by the fruit plate. The time change has been fine, and...

I grew up learning if someone’s spouse or significant other passed away, the surviving spouse should wait a year before they considered starting another relationship. Sounds old fashioned now, for some. It was supposed to be done...

NJ Chicaa I don't know what the right answer is. My mother once told me not to judge a friend's father who got remarried after his wife died just a year earlier. That being said my dad is gone and I don't think she will ever look for another partner. Hey I haven't after...
