So this week as been pretty lousy. Monday and Tuesday I had to walk to work in super cold weather because my car wouldn't start. Yesterday I started my day off my locking myself out of my apartment, and ended it by causing my school to have a mass evacuation due to the fire alarm (yes, I set off the fire alarm, NO, I was not smoking).

One might ask, "Linnea, how did you set off the fire alarm," and Linnea might say,"I was heating up chocolate chips to dip stuff in, and it scolding causing a small amount of smoke, a very loud alarm, a mass Exodus from the building by 760 kids a and 50ish staff and my room smelling like dark hot chocolate for the rest of the day.

over all the week really blew. I can't wait to get out of school and a way from adolescents and my students. HA. Well more later.

COUNT DOWN

The count down till ANNE is home and I am off work for 2 (count them two) weeks. Two weeks with out students, she sighs longingly. I am totally looking forward to hanging out with Grand Masta Funk herself, Anne Dugga, and Mama Dee, and all my friends that are coming home to see their families. Oh i almost forgot, Matt, Kirstin and Jack coming from Arizona. I can't wait to see them too.

I just want to make a comment... I think it is gut bustin' funny that my sister, brother, sister-in-law and nephew are all coming from HOT places, and it was a high of 3 today. The low was -17. God help them, she says laughingly.

Well I woke up this morning, -7* and my (Anne's) car won't start. Which is understandable for it is a car and it is colder than outer space out there. This only really bothers me for 2 reasons, 1) my mother just spent a small fortune to get the thing fixed, which included a $200 battery (don't ask, VW's cost A LOT) and 2) because i had to walk to work (did i mention it was -7* before windchill). Now those who know me well know i only live like 2 blocks from work and Brook (in Chicago) would yell at me for complaining, but it was flipping COLD. That is not how i wanted to wake up. Thank the lord for long johns (bright red if you were wondering).

I have been watching, CONNIE AND CARLA, again. I love this movie. Drag queens, show tones, gangstas, Victor/Victoria - what is not to love?

I will close on a quote, "Stop shouting - your voice is giving me Mono!"

FACE BOOK

I have done it now...i am on face book. I know it is about time. Life otherwise is good. I have what feels like a cold but the doctor says it is a form of the flu. He put me on codeine cough meds and i am a tad stoned. Anywho, i have nothing to report.
