  • Artic Bummer

    By Andrea Menzies

    This Artic Blast is now officially a bummer. All schools, airports, and work things are closed. Yet fun and social activities are also not-do-able for the week as well.

  • No Speaker

    By Andrea Menzies

    Everyone keeps trying to get me to work in Spanish speaking jobs this week. I do not speak Spanish. Any person in my family speaking Spanish learned it from a book. My parents worked travel jobs in France and Germany when I was a kid. They were both U.S. citizens born in the USA, and I was born on US soil. My passport says I am a US citizen. I mentioned to a few people I spoke other languages as a kid at lunch one day, and I am from Texas. The other languages were German and French as my dad worked in Germany. It is a seriously prejudice and disturbing trend I see in Virginia that they think all Texas people are originally from Mexico. You put me in a class filled with kids from Mexico they may get killed with me not understanding them at all in an emergency.

    This is why I am leaving Facebook: A conversation someone said to me on there. Ronaldo AquinoIsn’t there an app or two for that? I saw this old Chinese woman using it with a nurse. Ronaldo Aquino Andrea Menzies It is slow as a nightmare to whip that out in class. Also students use slang that is not programed into apps so that is not a real option for teachers at all. I tried it and students misbehave like garbage ever second a teacher tries to use Google translate. Thank you for being an example of why I am quitting Facebook. Everyone criticizes me and gives me NOTHING but STUPID answers to my every statement.

  • Good Grades

    Good Grades

    By Andrea Menzies

    I made all passing grades at university night school class this semester. Today has had bad ups and downs, but it had the good news of passing grades for the semester in night school. I even got an A grade. I transferred out of the first grad school program I was in due to cost issues. The new school has been far better with prices and schedules. It gives me hope that more positive changes in my life are on the horizon after the cold and dark of Virginia’s disgusting nightmare experiences are over. I have only felt disappointments and agony in the truly horrible location of Virginia.

  • Trip Cancelled

    Trip Cancelled

    By Andrea Menzies

    I told many people I was going to Maryland for a concert this weekend by train. Then a huge snow storm moved in, and I had to cancel. There is a big difference between trying to go somewhere on a sunny 40 degree weather day and traveling in a snow nightmare. This is reason number one million that I need a travel RV van for road trips as trains and hotels charge huge fees for cancellations. I hate Virginia with all my soul, and the dream of getting away from the nightmare place for a weekend was my only joy. Why did weather reports not show this storm sooner?

  • No Need

    By Andrea Menzies

    I have been employed at 3 jobs that do drug and alcohol testing in the last 5 years. I am still employed as a teacher, and work temp jobs in the summer that do drug and alcohol tests in the summer. Below is a segment of a copy of the LabCorp drug test receipt for one of them called Kelly Services. I have never failed a drug or alcohol test at any job. Yet someone sent me 3 advertisements for counseling and rehab this week and there is no need. Years ago some married men in the military tried to force me to have affairs with them. I would not do it, and millions of lies have followed which are their attempts at vengeance. The lies say I am disabled (I am not) and do one million pounds of crack as I can legally prove I am not under the influence. I am not a perfect person, I have a heart murmur and asthma, but this is seriously overkill in the illegal stalking department. One of the reasons cops need a search warrant to search houses is we do have a constitutional right to privacy in the United States.

    One of my many asthma medications they do not all fit in one pocket as I carry them daily.

  • Double Workout

    Double Workout

    By Andrea Menzies

    Woot, I made it to a 180 day workout level for my New Year’s Resolutions app workout on SunnyFit. I normally go on a health kick for New Year’s Eve but seeing a friend’s death online really made my workout urge double.

  • Ed Books

    Ed Books

    By Andrea Menzies

    Ed gave me his paperback copy of Time Enough For Love years ago. Now I can never give it back because he was found dead this week. One of the reasons I started to review books online was that many friends used to lend me books and talk about them constantly in Texas and Louisiana when I lived there unlike Virginia. I redownloaded the book to remember my lost friend this week.

  • Ed RIP

    By Andrea Menzies

    RIP to my friend named Ed that passed away this week. He was at my wedding before my divorce when I was younger.  I tried to get enough money to visit him in Texas in the hospital, but my horrible teaching job would not pay me enough. Thing one million that makes me hate Virginia with all my soul.
