Seven Things Presently Making Me Angry

December 4, 2015 By AJ 1 Comment

  1. We have had more shootings than sunrises in 2015.
  2. In fact, there have been more incidents of terrorist-level gun violence* than days in this year.
  3. And more people have died in these shootings than there will be days in this year.
  4. Gun purchases on Black Friday were at a record high.
  5. I have absolutely no idea how to affect change on this matter.
  6. It makes me feel sick and it makes me feel helpless.
  7. But if one more person tells me “now is not the time” to post happy things on social media, I will punch them in the throat. I’m entitled to my coping mechanisms just as much as your crazy Uncle is entitled to his delusional right-wing conspiracy-theory over-the-top opinions.

I keep these quotes or odes in my favorite photos folder in my phone and oftentimes, at least one of these little cards brings me a lot of comfort. If any of all of them do that for you, I am happy to share them.

I was talking with some friends today about teache I was talking with some friends today about teachers. And it made me think about my most favorite teachers. At U of A, Professor Bernardi recognized my talent for writing and inspired me to wish for bigger things. He helped me see, at a very tough time, that I could still achieve great things. But I never would have found such a love for writing were it not for Mr. Perry, my English teacher in my senior year of high school, who taught me that every word should have a purpose. And in high school, there was also Mr. Thomas, who instilled in me a deep love of history. I also thought about my beloved elementary school teachers - there were a few at my school I adored. Among them, Mrs. Borin who was just a cool, cool lady. She was a forward-thinker and I was lucky that after my fourth grade year, she moved up to sixth grade so I got to have her again. And pictured with me here is Mrs. Klepetar, who happens to be my friend's Mom (something we did not even put together until we'd been friends for a few years), who recognized a seven year old who flat out resented math but got her to take a little more pride in it with customized extra credit assignments -- she gave me an audience to show my work and that was pretty clever. THANK YOUR TEACHERS, friends. ESPECIALLY NOW. They help shape the adults we become. #teachersrule #Thankyouteachers #TBT

I was catching some good light while I cleaned my apartment today so why not a #cosplay #maskselfie? @myshieldmask is actually a client now but was my favorite mask brand before that happened, I swear. They’re soft and comfortable and come out great when I wash them. Also, loads of colors and patterns to choose from, sizes, etc. Basically I can’t gush enough about them. (10 Points for Gryffindor!!!) AND if you are a RAVENCLAW, I have a mask for you, too. (See: Next slide.) Drop a comment if you want to be in the raffle. #wearamask #quarantinelife #harrypotter #ravenclaw #gryffindor
