And so it begins

     Over the last few years it has become a small, backburnered ambition of mine to write a book. College, student teaching, Oxford's Square, and general lethargy have hindered this little dream project, so I have decided to begin compiling my stories in hopes that one day I can take Chelsea Handler's job, firing that scary Latin midget (yes, I realize that is not the preferred nomenclature. You'll undoubtedly hear about my.. feelings toward this type of person if you hang out and read long enough) once and for all.

     I've decided that my life is the personification of Murphy's Law. For those of you that have been living under a proverbial rock for the last century, the contemporary version of Murphy's Law states:


                                    "Anything that can possibly go wrong, will."

Though my life isn't exactly what I would call disastrous, it is comically relieving sometimes upon the retelling of my hap hazardous tales.

Because I am student teaching, I may occasionally use this as a mental health break. Expect lots of pithy ranting. I make no apologies.

So here's to a new start on a fresh piece of Internet paper. More stories, new and old, to come shortly.

Cheers,
Erin

  1. Ha! "Proverbial rock!" Because Murphy's Law is like a proverb, and if you live under a "proverbial rock" then you wouldn't be familiar with it! That's classic! You should use that.

    Anyway...seriously: I support and encourage you wholeheartedly. In fact, I am inspired and motivated! Take that!

    I set a goal for myself to read, write, and draw (or art!) at least once per day (regardless of how much). So far, I have yet to write anything, though doing art and reading seems to be working out.

  3. Just let me get some weight watcher friendly popcorn before you really get going. I have a feeling I'll want to do some sitting back and enjoying. Proud of you, Momsie.
