Well, it seems that I am not going to be getting my kittens after all. The lady who has them never contacted me to come get them. Instead, I think I might adopt a dog in May, when school's out. I can spend all summer training him/her, so I won't have to come home at lunch each day for potty breaks. Our standardized test pressure is insane right now, so summer is looking REALLY attractive right about now. I'm going to Las Vegas for the first time, and maybe some small road trips to some area campgrounds. Only two more months. Ahhhhhhhh............
I am SO excited that Lost is back on tonight!! I am also really liking The Starlet. I am writing my first screenplay, and the show has helped me to look at my scenes the way an actor might.
In baby news, my friend Julie had her first son, Jeffrey Connell, yesterday afternoon. Both Mama and baby are perfectly fine. Yea Julie! Also, Baby Happy is causing some commotion. Let's hope this is an isolated incident. :)
Thought for the day: Even under insane stress, life is good.

Fertility Goddess
I think I may be something of a fertility goddess. Not only do we have at least 10 confirmed pregnancies at my school, but a couple of my friends are now also pregnant, including my best friend, Mrs. Happy. Maybe it's something in the water, or maybe my own lack of action is shifting the cosmic forces of love to those around me. Or, maybe I just have a lot of happily married young friends. Whatever the case, I wish them all well. (Especially Baby Happy. Yea!!)

He has been an inspiration for me to continue blogging. Please watch CSI tonight. If you like what you see, please leave Wil a comment and let him know.

Almost Weekend Update
Did anyone see Lost on Wednesday. That is the best show!! I even knew that Hurley had won the lottery, but I had no idea about all the other number stuff. I can't believe that the next new episode won't be until April 13!! How will I make it?!
In other news, my best friend's husband, Curt, lost his job yesterday. They currently live on Long Island, but may decide to move back to Texas. I want Curt to find whatever job will be best for him and Elizabeth, but I'm also kinda pullin' for a return to Texas. I know it's selfish, but it would be nice to see them once in a while.
On a final note, I'm a little disturbed by a blog I read today. One of the blogs I visit daily had a reference to another blog by a woman involved in a relationship with a married man. Now, I know that my beliefs are much more conservative than many. I am a Christian, and I have very high standards for behavior. That's not to say that I don't have compassion, or that I am anywhere close to living perfectly, but there are certain areas where there are lines that just shouldn't be crossed. I believe that it is never ok to have a romantic relationship with a married person. I know there are a thousand justifications that people tell themselves to make it sound alright, but I have never seen a relationship flourish that began with lies. All the cheaters I've known have been selfish liars who are only interested in getting the best of two worlds without really committing to either. A dear friend of mine was raked over the coals more than once by a married lover, and it was torture to watch her be hurt again and again. Also, as a teacher, I have to deal daily with the intense damage that cheating and divorce inflict on the children of these relationships. I just wish people would consider the damage they might cause before beginning these relationships. Camerin Courtney had an experience with this on an airplane recently. Read her story here.
