30s. Artist. Educator. Survivor. I'm Gen. I teach art and interactive media. This is my space to whine, laugh, appreciate, and brainstorm. I love puffers and all things colorful. Like my art?

My second-favorite coworker is leaving education to go do data management and learning management systems for a company in annapolis. I'm the first one he's told.
This dude has had my back for 3 years now. we've had so many good talks about burning the educational system to the ground, feminism, and life. Besides teacher bestie, he's the closest to me in subject matter (comp sci/PLTW engineering) and physically- he's across the hall and dude has always been in my corner. We've shared hallway duty together, printed sub plans for each other, covered for each other....fucking fuck.
FUCK. I'm happy for him (and he mentioned about seeing work I could do, part time...) but FUCK. A huge fucking loss for our school.
Fuck. how do I keep doing this another 20 years? How many more excellent teachers are gonna leave for greener pastures?
Alright y’all, we don’t plan on showing Ruby, but I do want to register her. Dont wanna add the kennel name because too religious
Dunc’s AKC name is St. Duncan’s Secret of the Kells, because that’s the movie we watched the day Mike and I became a couple.
Anyone have suggestions for Ruby? I’m a slut for alliteration, also the words Sea ocean etc, fearless and sunrise, and Tuesday because Ruby Tuesdays makes me cackle.
Ruby Sunrise Song of the Sea?
Unsolvable Rubix Cube (because this also makes me cackle)

Dunc was trying to teach her that our (5) stairs are not scary and look watch me a Dunker go up and down to show you my baby? Do not cry pls baby I know the stairs are big scare I will help.
She has no problem with the deck stairs and even launched herself off the third step.
Baby girl do you think are you made of rubber?? (She was fine)
I had a moment in the sunroom where it felt like she was sitting there next to me watching ruby and dunc play. All I could feel was love.
It’s very soon. Our nunu was a once in a lifetime dog. But with the way everything lined up, I think banana had this black ball of sunshine picked out for us to help us heal. She’s sleeping on my chest, heartbeat against mine. And there is peace and love.
I have absolutely no idea how to actually promote a book because I’ve never tried to sell anything in my life but here’s some reasons you may enjoy Quest for the Sea’s Revenge:
Do you enjoy my scary water posts? Because the horror and divinity of the ocean is a prominent theme in this story
Lotta queer rep, if that’s something you look for. Basically everyone in this story is queer.
Sea monsters. They’re in there *gestures to the ocean*
Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to (almost) die at sea? There’s a fairly detailed description. Written primarily from personal experience.
Do you enjoy fucked up guys (affectionate) and fucked up guys (derogatory)? We’ve got an abundance of both.
Have I mentioned that the main character is just a little guy? He’s just a little guy and it’s his birthday he’s a little birthday guy (he just stole your wallet).
There’s some romance if you’re into that.
Found family! Both in the sense that the crew becomes family and in the sense that Cas is literally trying to find his dad because he disappeared at sea.
The fog is alive and hungry. Don’t let anyone out of your sight.
