12 of 12: June  
Today is the 12th, which means it's time for Chad Darnell's 12 of 12, my favorite way to spend the 12th.

Now, I'm an English teacher from Tempe, Arizona, but I'm off for the summer. So this is going to be the most horrifyingly boring 12th of the month ever. We had a few moments that weren't completely dull, though, so cheers to that.

Either way, here we are: The 12th of June )

It's the 12th, and that means it's time for 12 of 12!

For those of you who don't know, I'm a teacher in Tempe, Arizona. (Though the pictures aren't as exciting as they could be. Thanks, school day and federal law!)

I know I've been pretty bad about keeping up with the 12 of 12. It's so hard when the 12th falls on a school day that I literally avoid it like the plague. Anyway, we know the rules, we know it was Chad's idea. On to the pictures, courtesy of my iPhone (for the most part).

English teacher from Tempe, Arizona, lest we've forgotten.

The 12th of April: Errands and general sloth. )

Happy November 12th! Since it's the 12th, it's the day for Chad Darnell's 12 of 12, and you're all used to me doing this so there you go. I had the day off, so it's not the most fun I've ever had on a 12th, but at least I didn't have my relatives visiting.

Also, there aren't a thousand pictures of the cats this time. It was just one of those days.

November 12th: Laundry and beef. )

12 of 12: October  
Well, today is the 12th, and I spent it taking pictures of my life for the first time since July. Good for me! As I watch a movie and my mother sleeps next to me on the couch, I am uploading my pictures. Today was actually an active day. It's 9 p.m. and I am completely drained.

That said, for those of you keeping track, I am a teacher, I live in Tempe, Arizona, and today was a day off. My mother is in town, so it's been all sorts of fun. And for those of you who have not experienced this before, this is Chad Darnell's brilliant idea.

It's the 12th, and even though I have fourteen pictures, it's time for Chad Darnell's 12 of 12! One day, twelve pictures, et cetera.

For those of you keeping score on the free cards you got in the mail, I'm an English teacher from Tempe, Arizona, but of course, school's out for the summer. This day, however, ended up way more interesting than it could have been.

It's May 12th (well, it was) and that makes it time for Chad Darnell's 12 of 12!

Get out your scorecards! Arizona, teacher (not that my profession matters on a Saturday), et cetera. The times are approximate.

It's the 12th, it's the first day of spring break, and that means it's another day for Chad Darnell's 12 of 12!

Yadda yadda, teacher. Yadda yadda, Tempe, Arizona. SPRING BREAK! WHOO!

The Reading List  
Below is my official reading list. Every book I have (fiction) that I have not yet read.

I did not include non-fiction because most of the non-fiction I own is non-fiction I don't ever intend to read. Let's be honest. I am given teacher books by non-teachers all the time. They sit on my "books that it looks good to own" shelf. Also, the books are not in the order I intend to read them but rather in the order I typed them up. I intend to read them in whatever order I please.

Currently reading: A Safe Place for Dying, Jack Fredrickson

The original list, 3/07 )


List update, 8/07 )

It's another 12th, which means another Chad Darnell 12 of 12 Project day!

For those of you playing the at-home game, I'm a teacher from Tempe, Arizona, and this is the most boring 12 of 12 ever.

It's that time of month again, when Chad Darnell's 12 of 12 project reigns supreme!

Last year, as some of you may know, I pretty much sucked at this. But no longer! A new year means that, in addition to my resolution of "play more Zelda", I am resolved to not completely bomb the 12 of 12.

So far, so good.

For those of you playing the at-home game, I am a high school teacher from Tempe, Arizona.

12 of....13?  
12 of 12 is a project started by Chad Darnell to take 12 pictures on the 12th of every month, but I? Suck big fat hairy donkey balls and forgot to do it yesterday, so I did 12 of 13.

For those of you who don't know, I am a 10th and 11th grade English teacher in Tempe, Arziona.

Moving on.... )

So there you have it. And next time? I won't forget. I hope.

Summary: Gus has other reasons for not wanting to talk to Shawn.
Notes: Spoilers for last night's episode, albeit vague ones. They just started talking in my head today! For no reason! I think I'm haunted by fiction characters, oh yes I am.

I finally did it! 12 of 12, my first time around. For those of you here from elsewhere, I work as a summer intern at a fairly uninteresting college office in the middle of nowhere.
