I am working. Really.

[coffeesnob318]

Two of my schools are on spring break this week, and apparently, my brain went with it. I can't seem to concentrate on special occasion speeches. And I'm hungry. That's it. I'll blame the hunger.



[x] Part 1 -- The Basics [x]
What's your name? ::: Suzanne
Birthplace ::: Childress, TX
Age ::: 28...for a week and three days more, at least *clings desperately to her youth*
Age you act ::: My actual age, unless I'm drunk.
Current location ::: in the "office" (aka, big table in the middle of a room that everyone shares)
Eye color ::: green, usually
Hair color ::: auburn

Your hair ::: naturally curly, currently very big (time for a trim)
Your fears ::: insects that sting, my friends being unsafe
Your perfect room ::: Any room that contains Michael Rosenbaum
What you practically do in a day ::: drink about half a pot of coffee, watch the View, do at least 20 minutes of cardio (better than nothing, right?), shower, dress, go to one or two schools and amaze my students with how charming and modest I am, grade just enough papers that I don't fear they will take over the house, run some random errand, watch some sort of TV at night while I eat dinner, grade, make my to-do list for the next day.

[x] Part 3 -- What is/are... [x]
Words you overuse ::: hilarious, actually, probably, quite, incredibly, bastard
Phrases you overuse ::: That is the greatest (substitute funniest, sexiest) thing I have ever seen/heard. They can't actually (there's that word again...damnit!) all be the best, right?
Your first thought when you wake up ::: coffeee!!!!!
Your greatest accomplishment ::: My MA
Something you want to do ::: eat all the Taco Bueno I want without any detriment to my health. I want cheese to have the same nutritional facts as celery.

I skipped part 7 about my friends, because not all apply, and most of you don't know my ftf friends anyway.

[x] Part 8 -- The Last... [x]

Last annoyance ::: Whatever's playing in the office over there
Last IM ::: probably ishtar127a I'm not sure, though...it's been a while.
Last weird encounter ::: My neighbor across from me cracked open her door and then suddenly slammed it shut when I left this afternoon. Am I that scary?
Last person you hugged ::: Michelle
Last person you yelled at :: a student. But I apologized. It's not his fault he's an idiot.
Last time you wore a skirt ::: Probably last week sometime.
Last time you've been evil ::: When I talked about coffee in class without bringing any

Yo Momma ::: Nobody talks about my momma!
Ever been so hungry you felt like you could eat the person next to you? ::: Hehe, I'm not sure physical hunger had anything to do with that impulse.

Glad this is over? ((Say yes and I'll stalk you XP)) ::: Yes. Not only is it the truth, but I could use a stalker. Adds excitement to my life.

Fast Food Nation

I've heard good things about this book - what did you think of it?

I loved it. Two thumbs up. Very informative, and the writer is kind of a smartass, which I always enjoy. But if you're madly in love with hamburgers, maybe you want to skip it. I didn't touch meat for a month after I finished it...just couldn't do it. But I'm over that now. :)

[chicklet73.livejournal.com]

I can take or leave hamburgers, actually prefer a veggie burger myself. Meat kind of grosses me out (not to the point I've given it up. yet), so it sounds like the book's right down my alley. Heh.

[coffeesnob.livejournal.com]

mmm...veggie burger....*stomach growls*

[bubbles79.livejournal.com]

Hee! I'm "working" too. Thanks for easing the monotony. :)

[coffeesnob.livejournal.com]

Heh, heh. Any time.
