BENNY & JOON ARE MISSING! Now there:s one giant spider in their place. The only logical explanation is that they have simply morphed into one being.

Today i saw two dragonflies humping in mid-flight. at least someone is getting action over here. Next on my agenda: hook a dragonballz guy. i admit it! i like the big wild hair!

My back balcony is starting to look like the John St. landfill. Curses to that 8;30am recycling and garbage pickup that i constantly forget about/don:t see it worth getting up for. and 2x curses to the woman who watches the garbage to make sure i:m correctly separating it! it:s a sad day when you:re nervous about having your garbage rejected.

Yesterday I nearly went bonkers. i need a fishing net to throw over the kids in my 3;00 class- they are all over the place! kids are so wriggly,it:s like they have jello for bones or something...
