John Goodman is so awesome. He’s probably one of my favorite actors. I’m glad to see him in a lot of movies lately.

Yesterday was so much fun! The Wizarding World of Harry Potter did not disappoint. Jurassic Park was sweet. The Incredible Hulk ride was probably one of the best coasters I’ve been on. Today, well explore the other Universal Park. We were very disappointed to learn that we missed getting to experience Jaws by four days! It closed Monday. Seriously, what kind of timing is that? However, there...

All I have to say is that the people who think it’s cool to screw with my girlfriend better hope I never find out who they are, or I will kill them. No joke.

What Happened After Work.
So I get home from work tonight, and in the doorway downstairs, I find a young man trying to help an old lady with a cane get through the door. She looks to be in her seventies or eighties. She seems to be saying something about possibly having a stroke, so I ask if I can help in some way. Both of them basically just give me blank stares and keep talking to each other. However, the elevator in our...

Realizations
I forgot my iPod today, so I’ve been listening to my Billy Joel station on Pandora, which has led me to realize two things that may well change my life. The first is that I need to start a high-energy, oldies style band. The second is that “Take On Me” may well be my favorite song of all time. I need to make a mix that is just every version I can find of that song.

Molecular Gastronomy
Tonight, Karen, Joe, and I had dinner at Moto. It was absolutely unlike anything I have ever experienced before. They had flavored menus that we used instead of seaweed to make our own sushi rolls. They had noodles and mashed potatoes made out of chicken. They had miniature sandwiches in the form of cigars with edible ash. There were more courses than we could keep track of, for a grand total of...

This morning, I had a beautiful moment.
Today was my first day of student teaching. I showed up early, nervous as can be, and as I walked around the building, I met a bow-tied older gentleman who asked if I knew how to get into the building. I didn’t, as it was my first day as a student teacher, I explained. The older man then responded that he had done his student teaching many years ago. Since then he had gone on to become a teacher,...

karenabad: My boyfriend tweeted me asking me to high five an astronaut if I could… …so I did. Astronaut Douglas H. Wheelock (aka “Wheels”) of STS 120 - was kind enough to high five me in front of the launch pad. I love NASA! I seriously cannot express with words how happy this makes me or how much it means. I have the best girlfriend in the world.
