• We're dumbing down, dumb-de-dumb-dumb

  by Meredith Newton August 17, 2004
  Well, now I feel so reaaaaaallllllyyyyy smart!  I took those first online tutorials for that new school.  You remember - I have to be certified and trained to teach there (I WON'T GO BACK INTO THAT COMPLAINING!).  I scored 100% on the first two "tests."  For the one dealing ...

• Just some little thoughts

  by Meredith Newton August 17, 2004
  While times are tough, there's also reasons to smile.  One of which is all of you. You have all been there for me.  As I hope I am for you. I am still so giddy over speaking to Maria and Christina on Saturday. I saw the piccie of Chris, and she looked so beautiful!  Maria said she's s...

• Happy happy happy, all the time

  Happy happy happy, all the time, shock treatment, I'm doing fine......I LOVE The Ramones!  Saw them a few times, too. With the exception of a little row yesterday (all resolved), I'm smiling more right now.  For starters, yesterday was Christina's birthday.  I knew they were gathering...

• Hiding under a rock

  by Meredith Newton August 13, 2004
  I'm gonna hide under a rock for a while.  This morning I wrote an apology to the one person with whom I had the fight yesterday.  Around the house I've been forgiven.  Still, I haven't hated myself as much as I do now for a long time.  I'm going to stop unloading all this on you ...

• Please forgive me

  Girls, today was not a good day. Okay, finances are in the toilet and I'm fighting to save all we have.....okay, f' that.. now, IT'S MEREDITH THE ASSHOLE!!!! At the school where we drop her off, there's this circular little thingy that cars drive around.  Parking is not allowed there.  Bu ...

• I'm gonna take a shotgun to them, I swear

  by Meredith Newton August 12, 2004
  I am so tired right now. Last night was the first of four training nights at my newest school. While I appreciate some of the sessions as a good orientation program, I truly wonder how well things will go.  They made some unfair and unjust jabs at "traditional" education that I was very tempted...

  I'm surprised I'm even awake right now.  I started to fall asleep around 8:30 last night, then woke up 3 hours later.  It looked like another night of insomnia, so I moved again into the other room.  Amazingly enough, I did get some sleep.  I had nasty dreams, though.  One w...

• Resigned to who I am

  by Meredith Newton August 10, 2004
  Things have quieted down.  I don't think she apologized yet for calling me a freak.  Her "explanation" is "You've called me worse."  Great logic there, isn't it?  But she is resigned to that I'm TG.  It will never be accepted, or even really tolerated.  I can deal with ...

• Looking for direction

  by Meredith Newton August 9, 2004
  I was debating whether to post this blog because I don't want to take away from the TM.  The UK girls had such a good time at the TM on Saturday, so please read those blogs! I can't wait for the piccies. While I was out looking at school girl outfits, imagining being a tramp (as in my last blog...

• With a special guest appearance by Meredith the Tramp

  by Meredith Newton August 7, 2004
  You're all out right now. I hope you're having a great time.  I drank a little toast to you a few moments ago. Today we were out in the morning doing shopping.  We needed to pick up the uniform for my daughter's upcoming entrance into Catholic school.  They had uniforms for all ages t...
