Sniggity Snow Days Rock

Second Tuesday that we've had a Snow day.
I haven't had a full week of work since Christmas break.
It's been kinda nice.
Of course maybe since I haven't had a full week that would explain why I've had to go in 2 Saturday's in a row.
It all balances out.
My sister Janie is home visiting.
I've missed her.
When she turned 18 she decided to drop out of high school and move to Florida to live in a tent. Seriously.
She seems good though.
A little weird how someone can be such a big part of your life then gone and you adjust and then come back and you adjust to that.
It makes you realize that while there are people in your life you think you can't live without they don't really 'fuel' your life.
It just goes on.
I thought Christmas would be weird without her, but it wasn't that weird.
You just adjust.
Sorry-may not make sense.
Just some thoughts.
Thanks to my good friend Jo Ann I'm totally addicted to MySpace.
My sister and I have been trying to collect more friends than the other.
Are you supposed to feel bad if you deny people from being your friend?
There are some scary fellas out there.
Their pages say they are from my town so now I'm afraid I will see them and they will remember I said DENY to their friend request and they will hate me.
Don't need any freaky freaks on the MySpace.

To rent or to own that is the question

So I'm considering buying a small house.
That really scares me though.
See I get paid 4th year teachers sallary and I'm paying off my undergrad loans and I plan on starting grad school in the summer.
Grad school will set me back a cool $50,000.
I will be poorer than poor people.
So do I keep renting which is basically throwing money away or buy a house as an investment?
Seriously, is any house I can afford an investment?
If I continue to rent(a new apartment...a new year means a new dwelling) then I could look into buying next January/February and feel alot better about my finacial situation.
I will know exactly what my school costs will be and what not.
Okay, on another note, what do you think about this sketchiness...
My ex and I broke up a month and a half ago.
Last week this girl(who I know through him)calls me up and says...
"Hey, I heard you and Tom broke up."
me: "uh, yeah"
her: "So is that a good thing?"
Me: "uh, I guess so."
Okay...what did she think I was going to say, I don't know her that well did she want the break up story?
Her:" yeah, I had no idea until my friend (whose name I will not mention) called me up to tell me she was dating Tom ******."
Me: "Umm, okay...what?"
Seriously, what is going on? Why are you calling me?
What the hell.
Her: "So how long have you been broken up? "
Me: "Like a month or so"
Her: "Oh, well, they've only gone out like 3 times I guess they met on the internet."
Me: "nothing" b/c what the hell do I say...I never talk to this girl...let along about something so personal.
Her : "So, I was just telling (insert husbands name here) that we should do something with Tom and Wendy but since you guys broke up I thought I'd call you and see if you wanted to go out with us on Friday?"
Me: "um...Okay maybe..."
This is a true story. Very weird and true.
Oddly enough I did go out Friday and had a very good time.

shorty short


Yes, it did take a while quick review things that have happened...warning here some are not good but I'm just putting it out there so you ahve an idea...
I will just say I'm glad this is a new year. I'm ready for it.
(A side note...watching Grey's right now and George's dad has esophagus cancer. That is what my dad had. Take the tumor...he can make it!)
Okay...a student at my school died from choking, another of my previous students committed suicide, my sister dropped out of school and moved to Flordia when she turned 18, and Tom and I broke up.
Don't really know why I wrote that for anyone in the freaking world to read, but all of those things have had a big impact. Not necassarily negative either. Just big.
(OK...emotional...George's Dad's scar looked just like my Dad's...freaky weird...like having your life on tv).
Anyway.......
Here is the big news......
Are you ready......
I posted on 2peas!!!
username: wendysophia
Yep, just 3 posts, but they are there, oh, and I added a picture so you all know what I look like now.
A little reassuring to know I'm not some superfreak,huh?
Ofcourse, I guess I could still be a superfreak and that could be someone else, but it's me, I swear.
Just for good measure I'll add another picture...maybe if we can figure this out...

I'm back

Hey, it's been a long time, but I'm baaaack.
A lot of changes and it's a new year.
Not a lot of time to update, but soon, I promise...soon.
I'm sure there are just tons of people out there waiting for an update(ri-ight).
