What you need to know about me:
I’m a Libra through and through. Also an Ox. 😉
I’m German; I hold a grudge. I also have a bad jealous streak that is mostly under control. 😉 And reddish highlights.
My pet peeves are gum cracking, mouth breathers, bad drivers and stupid people.
I’m an artist and a writer.
I love cats.
I love France and all things French.
I speak three languages.
My toenails are always painted.
I have a tattoo. 🙂 Just one. I want another but I don’t know where to put it so I figure that’s a sign not to get one.
I believe in signs.
I love to read. I read as much as I can squeeze in during the school year and then go nuts in the summer. Last summer I read 20 books.
I wrote a picture book about my cat, and started a second. (There’s a whole series planned; I want to be the next Fancy Nancy.)
My manuscript placed 77th in the Writer’s Digest Annual Competition last year for the Children’s/Young Adult category.
I teach fifth grade, and every year there’s a parent who hates my guts. This year I have at least three.
I don’t want to be a principal. (See previous comment about parents.)
If I win the lottery, I’m moving to France!
three languages?? jealous…
Oui, je parle francais y yo hablo espanol and of course, English. 🙂 I love language.
and if I win the lottery, I’m moving to Spain!… greener pastures and so on…
Hey, after this day at work, I’m going ANYWHERE but here!!!
They don’t pay me enough to get SCREAMED at by eleven year-olds who are too fucking lazy to THINK on a test, even though they already showed they could do the work correctly for the past 4 weeks. Idiots. I am genuinely concerned for the future of this country.
OKAY i have definitely been here before. It looks easy enough to start a blog. On the course I am taking it looks like people started it for the class and then done! Thanks for sharing yours, it should get me started!
NP, Jan! Happy to help. 😀 WordPress is very easy to use, and they have tons of themes to choose from. I would love to see what you do even if it’s just for your class!
