International Travel: Paris Edition
Since we drove into Boston, things have been pretty crazy. We had to unpack our overloaded VW, sell said VW, find an apartment, acquire said apartment, and put the finishing touches on time in Paris. We finally had a few moments to breathe, and I thought it might be nice to document our little excursion. … Continue reading International Travel: Paris Edition
Two Years
These are some of my thoughts that I've collected for the past few days, just what came out of my head: School ended for me on June 6th. It is now June 15th. We spent the past 9 days packing up our house in San Antonio, moving across the country, finding an apartment in Boston, … Continue reading Two Years
Peach Toast
It's been a while, I know. Things have been hectic over here. We are getting ready to move, so we're selling ALL of our furniture (moving to Texas? Need some furniture? I'm selling it all for $250), making plans for our 3 week stay in Paris (!!!), contacting real estate agents in Boston to search … Continue reading Peach Toast
My Mistake: Commentary on Douthat’s latest article
Everyone makes mistakes. I made one today, I read the Ross Douthat column. My husband saw my hand making a increasingly taunt fist on the table, and immediately forwarded me a funny online comic. I really shouldn't read them. It's not that I don't appreciate the other view, I do when it's well thought out … Continue reading My Mistake: Commentary on Douthat’s latest article
A lot
A lot has happened in the past few days. President Obama came out in favor of same-sex marriage, Tyler finished his final class at UTSA, my students took my Biology end of course (EOC) exam, and we went to a great restaurant. I don't think I'll get to all that in this post. Let's take … Continue reading A lot
How To: Learning a New Language
As I have mentioned a few times, Tyler and I will be going to France this summer! So, we decided to try and learn French, in part because I think it would be fun to learn a new language together, and in part because it's respectful to the country and culture we're visiting. I knew … Continue reading How To: Learning a New Language
Quick Dinner Idea: Cheese and Bread Edition
So Tyler and I don't really go out to eat much, both to save money and to eat healthfully. But most days, neither of us have the time or energy to prepare an elaborate meal...hence this post! A quick dinner, made while we were both sick and feeling like crap. It didn't take a lot … Continue reading Quick Dinner Idea: Cheese and Bread Edition

Green Eggs
Let me tell you about my allergies. I have never really had them before. In Arizona, allergies aren't crazy because it's too hot, and in Boston...well, I don't know why I didn't have bad allergies in Boston. But good heavens, in San Antonio...it's a whole new world! I didn't have allergies last year, but then … Continue reading Green Eggs
