Wantin' to speak it good

Did anyone not have a hot English teacher?

Lincoln High School English and reading teacher Rebecca Anderson enjoys her lunch outside of the school's cafeteria

I know, she's blonde, but she's still sort of cute.

Greater forces Agin' me

Great, so now the pretty brunette from the law firm next door is leaving. Tell me again how this isn't some sort of grand conspiracy. This sucks.

Add it to the list

Ok, it is becoming rapidly apparent that trying this Stacker 2, was a bad idea...

Good Call

Nice job to Allison. On her recommendation I saw the film The Lives of Others; Brilliant. If you haven't already, you must see this movie(Mormon Girl, you're excused-it's rated R and her boyfriend doesn't like those kind of movies). It's German, so you have to read the screen, but that's ok, it's totally worth it (KG, just suck it up and sit through an art house movie. Be a Vincent for once instead of a Gene). Nothing blows up, but there is some booby, so it's got that going for it. Seriously, it's a great story so well written and a very beautiful story in a not so beautiful setting. It takes place in 1984 East Germany (yeah, there used to be two) in the midst of communist rule.

I saw some sort of phantom listing of another movie with this title for 2010, which probably means since it won an Oscar for best foreign language film, they're going to do an American version. So, see it before they make it suck.

Thanks again, Allison.

Basking in the Gospel

Words of wisdom from Big Love:

"Our Husband's dating life is none of our business!"

Amen, sisters, amen...

Second in a series

This is the part where we tell ourselves

it would never work

that ours would be

an ending of tears

This is the part where your arms

push me away

while your eyes

draw me closer

This is the moment where you hesitate and

keep me near

feeling my breath

on your neck

and letting its

warmth linger

longer

than

it should

This is the part where the guilt

breaks us in half

while remaining the bond

that brings us back together

This is the part where you lie

and tell me it’s easy

for you to resist

what you desire, but cannot have

This is the moment where I remind myself

that you would only

break my heart

and fail once again

to convince myself

that I wouldn’t let

you do it

a million

times more

Not Forgotten

Hey, you laggards didn't say Happy Birthday to Little Red Haired Girl on Saturday. For Shame!

Happy Birthday.

Don't feel too bad, her boyfriend is taking somewhere nice....and he's not telling her where it is, which is only adding to the fun. Hopefully, he remembered she loves singing birthday telegrams at work. She's weird like that.

Also, as of today, anyone who became subjected to me through the League "Family", you have known me for 5 years. If you still work at the League, check the Intranet, I'm still listed. VIVA LA RICHARD! You can get rid of me, but you cannot get rid of my spirit.

Lazy Sods

This is for Jay's benefit, since I know he'd be too lazy to find it himself. You learn two things from this interview: A) Bruce Campbell is cool as hell and B) Craig Ferguson's show is a hidden gem. Bruce is there to promote something and they don't even bring it up, they just start discussing movies. It's a nice break from the normal late night talk shows and it's funny. DVR it. Oh and I want to point out that the point he makes that horror movies, on sheer principle, cannot be PG-13; Jay and I made that very same argument before on his porch. You see dude, your wife is wrong, we're just the regular kind of savants. Enjoy.

Ahoy, you Primitive Screwheads!

No matter what happens in our lives, this will always be funny:

First in a Series

Standing here with a key

to unlock a door that will not open

I have entered through others

but always return to this one

this one with its mystery

with its possibility

with its curiosity

with its ability

to hold me enchanted & spellbound

offering a glimpse of a world

no one has known

of an innocence reborn

laying itself vulnerable and bare

while revealing nothing

this one with its promise of nothing

with its restrained longing

with its hesitant tempting

with its constant reaffirming

that the only thing left to want

is that which you cannot have

Just an idea

Would joining the Tallahassee Network of Young Professionals just to meet chicks be wrong? I mean, I was just looking through their photo galleries and it just seemed like it might be a good idea.

I need all the help I can get here people, I didn't get my Temple Recommend (missed it by 2 points-stupid verbal section), so that's no longer an option.

Here's your marriage license and 1099

"May there be peace and harmony in your homes. Husbands, love and treasure your wives. They are your most precious possessions."

Gordon B. Hinckley, LDS President - April 1, 2007. (out loud, with a straight face)


Amen.
