Who was the meanest teacher you had in school?
The Huebner!
It was apparently female. The details are hazy as this was in 2nd grade. This 'woman' had it out for me. I'm pretty sure she was out for blood when it came to me. I must have done something to piss her off at one point, but it was so long ago, I don't remember.
She made it a point to humiliate me in front of the class, punish me for minor things, etc. It got so bad that my parents got involved.
I know it's been weeks since I've posted anything significant. My life's kinda been on a rickety roller coaster ride for a while here. It'd be inappropriate to say mainly why because it's just speculation at this stage.
Anyway.. rehash time.
Two weekends ago, I went to see my older brother's college graduation. I was glad to see him and my sister-in-law, but my good god was the ceremony ever boring. Everything was so bland and by the book. The only 2 highlights were seeing my brother blow up a beach ball and then release it into the crowd; while the other being him actually getting announced as graduating Summa Cum Laude. It was certainly a moment for me to be proud. I'd post pictures, but none of them turned out very good as we were trapped in the nosebleed section of the auditorium. I should be getting pictures from his wife though.
Afterward, we went to a casual cafe called City Steam. The food was very good and I found the first beer I ever liked. The cafe has a microbrewery, so they serve their own beer brewed on site. There was one called the Naughty Nurse that was awesome. I only took a sip because I had to drive back later. However, I spent the next few days craving more. In fact, I ended up buying a 6-pack of Samuel Adams to try to avert the craving, but it didn't do the Naughty Nurse justice at all.
Last weekend, I got a much needed staycation. My wife and our friend Jay went to DC to see a concert while I stayed at home and vegged. It was quite relaxing. I haven't been able to do something like that for a long time. I did meet with an old friend at one point though. That was an emotional meeting. My heart goes out to him right now.
I reupped my account with City of Heroes a few weeks ago. I've been itching to break out my old characters. As I feared would happen (and rejoiced at too), the game has a new hold on me. It's been a lot of fun and there's so much new stuff to do. I've created a whole bunch of new characters too. Good times.
I've kinda been avoiding posting here because of previously stated mystery problem. I'm afraid I'll just end up ranting about something that I shouldn't care about or pay attention to. I don't really want to be that guy.
