Rachel Watches Fox News

  I’ve walked to work, and home from work (2.3 miles each way) every day this week. Worked today from 1 to 1.  Vanessa and I walked to work together, it was fun, and being 61 degrees in November was amazing. Kimberly and I went 

Vock the Rote! (i am clever)

I voted!  In someone’s garage down the street.  We could  have walked there but it’s pissing down rain.  Raining CATS AND DOGS!  It’s weird because it’s been AT LEAST 6 months since we’ve had anything more than a sprinkle.  The news says that “rainy weather 

Warm.

I worked from 2 to 1AM Monday.  I walked home from work, because it was really nice out.

Today it’s 60, and tomorrow, 65.  Weird for November.

The election today, but I’m not really excited about it, beyond it’s implications on the stock market.

Roll Back the Clock Day

Today was roll back the clock day, which is one of my favorite days of the year because I go from waking up at 1 every day to waking up at noon, and feel far more productive with no extra effort. I woke up today 

Halloweens Past

I missed Halloween this year.  I’m not a fan of Holidays- except for Halloween and Thanksgiving (so long as there is no family involved), both of which I LOVE LOVE LOVE.  Especially Halloween.  Here are my favorite photos from the past three Halloweens.  It makes 

Halloween?

I spent from 11-3 with contractors from Alpine Sprinkler who were replacing all of the 20 year old sprinklers in my house with new ones.

I went to work with the crew until around midnight. I decided to go upstairs with Jordan & Sasha. The party upstairs was pretty fun, got to hang out with everyone that works with me which was cool. Half way home, Shannon and Jeff called and asked for a ride home, so I turned around and picked them up. 3 people in a 2 seat convertible was interesting. When we got home, there was a huge party at the place next door, dozens of people randomly stumbling through the woods and shrubs. One guy was pissing in the woods, so we turned on the high beams, turned the car to highlight him, and blasted him with full light the whole time he was trying to pee. Made the whole night worthwhile.

sick sickerson

I woke up in the middle of the night with a screaming sore throat, a headache and my whole body hurt.  It’s been getting worse all day.  I hate being sick.  🙁 In happier news, I’m gong to Maine November 9-14!  I don’t have any 

Kikki Buttons

I have a student named Nikki Burton.  Last night in class I sent myself an email reminder about her via my iphone, since I too have no memory.  Later when I looked at my gmail there was an email that said “Email Kikki Buttons coordinator friend”.  I spent two minutes trying to figure out who the hell Kikki Buttons is before I realized that my iphone had adjusted my spelling.  KIKKI BUTTONS!  I love it!  If I ever have a baby I’m naming it Kikki Buttons.  Boy or girl, I don’t care.

Not Doing Well

I worked yesterday from noon to 3AM.  I worked today from noon to 2AM.  Ebay reinstated my account today and I spent 12 hours straight adding 45 auctions to our ebay store. I have no money left in the PayPal account.  My American Express bill
