Water For Elephants
I didn’t much know what to expect from this movie and I’d read no reviews and heard no opinions. It’s nice to go into a movie like that. I did, however, know Christoph Waltz was in it, but of course he met expectations.
Water For Elephants is a film that was made for someone like me. It’s a period piece that incorporates every significant element of it’s period...

Prayer Requests from Students
I’ve taken to praying with my students in my first class of the day. I think it’s a good way to start the school day, and it is a Christian school, but some of their requests are downright tickling.
Examples:
“Can we pray that I win my ebay auction so I can build a roller coaster with my K-nex?”
“Let’s pray for the polar bears because the ice caps are...

This desire to be loved unconditionally
Can’t be tangibly explained. I know what it is, but not how to get it.
It is viewed in my mind’s eye yet can’t be put to paper.
The heart feels it in dreams, but awakens lost and disoriented.
The feet walk to their usual places, but find them empty as ever.
The hands search for blankets that cover loneliness and find them insufficient.
The eyes dart towards empty fingers and...

Album Stories: IdleWild - 100 Broken Windows
A lot of albums have meaning to me, from how I was introduced to the band to what the music means to me. Did it change my thinking? Did it have meaning in my life at the time? Does it bring back memories? So I thought I would start telling the story of some of my favorite albums, beginning with IdleWild - 100 Broken Windows.
I was 14. It was 2001 and the internet was a relatively new...

My Favorite Earth Day Movies (not documentaries)
I was considering what movie to show my students the other day (bad weather = no p.e.) and it seemed fitting to pick one appropriate for earth day today. It made me think of how much I love movies that emphasize nature and taking care of the environment. Most of them are for children, but I think these are movies that can be appreciated by all ages.

I heard that In-N-Out shakes are awesome, too. I can’t wait to try one some day.
We don’t have In-N-Out here, but we might be getting one….?

Revolver - The Beatles
No Emotion - Idlewild
Heartbeats - Jose Gonzalez (7” Single) - as an aside, I’ve been listening to this song as much as humanly possible to the point where the CD gets hot in my car and stops playing :-(. I need this.
All Things Must Pass - George Harrison - Poor George is the only Beatles I don’t own something from his solo career. This must be...

Spring....
I like rain, but not these muggy days that go with it. If it’s going to rain it should go ahead and do it. Not be all cloudy and stuff…Makes me sleepy.
BUT!
I saw this beautiful robin on the way home today. Maybe the same one I saw last week. That brightened my mood. And it smells like someone is grilling outside. And we had an impromptu Bruno Mars sing along in the car pool today.
