General thoughts on life and everything it entails... I am a high school teacher and law student with a relentless love for travel. I spend my time trying to balance responsibility with family and friends.

I don't love beer. I know, crazy. However, Germany has some very interesting beers. Tonight I have devised a personal taste test of some of the most colorful beers I found at the store...
Pink, red, green, purple...
And this one, which I think might be pinecone. Who knows. It's Germany.
I will drink each one and review them separately, just for the heck of it....
Ok, I'll be honest, I don't actually work in coal mines. I think coal mines would be safer :) On Friday, I went back to work after a month of recovery - actually about 2 weeks of recovery and two weeks of hanging out bored silly. Now, I've been working for three days and it almost feels like three months. I'm so tired! My day consists of teaching seven classes, five different titles to approximately 120 total students. Other teachers reading this are thinking "well, 120 students in one day isn't that many, I have 250!" This is true, I used to be in a "regular" school with hundreds of students under my wing. Two years ago, I switched gears and now teach at a specialized school. Normally, specialized implies gifted students, or those focused on arts, culinary programs, etc. I WISH that was the case. I work at a specialized school for students that haven't figured out that the rules of civilized society also apply to them....
I've had some "not great" customer service experiences in my life. Today may be the first all out fail. So bad, that I feel it necessary to call them out for their terrible service. Ladies and gentleman, I present to you - Avis (the car rental agency). This morning, my husband texted to tell me that he'd accidentally left his keys (car, house, etc.) in his rental car, which he'd just returned to the Little Rock Airport. He knew this because the Avis agent called him, but he was already on the plane and didn't get the message until he landed for his layover. He was having trouble with cell service, so he asked me to call. No problem. Right? Wrong. I called about a dozen times, but was never able to get through. I got service errors, busy signals, and a couple of times, it almost seemed like someone picked up the phone and then hung up on me. I tried hunting for an online chat feature or an email address. No luck. I even tried the Avis o...
Today, somewhere between my house and UNLV and Biltmore, I lost my wallet. UNLV and Biltmore are probably the two worst places in Las Vegas to lose one's wallet, short of a crack den. I was really excited because I was going to UNLV to pay my tuition deposit for law school. Oh yeah, I said it, law school. I haven't made a huge announcement, but I'm starting night school in August. I went to UNLV to pay my deposit, had to show the gal my driver's license and then was on to Biltmore to sign some papers for some students. Then I had to go to the post office. When I got to the post office, I had no wallet. Just an empty purse. Of course, I was heartbroken. I called some people, I went back to look and nothing! Not only was this sad for the obvious reason, but it was also sad because it killed my lunch and mani/pedi plans with my friend Jessica. I went home and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't too difficult to report everything...
