Paintbrush and Trigger: November 2009

http://paintbrushandtrigger.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html

Tuesday, November 24, 2009. Sea-grass and bottle, Ireland, County Mayo. Does Jennifer enjoy life? This question was posted on my Facebook page by my mother. I just taught her how to use Facebook last weekend and now she is out of control. She also posted at least 8 other questions. The questions were things like, "Would you date Jennifer? Or "Do you think Jennifer likes dogs? I'm not sure "Would you date Jennifer? Is an appropriate question. Does Jennifer enjoy life? No matter how much it humiliates her ...

Paintbrush and Trigger: July 2010

http://paintbrushandtrigger.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html

Thursday, July 29, 2010. What makes up your Paella? Look at this gorgeous plate of paella. There is a bizarre, at least to these Ohioan taste buds, mixture of foods ranging from a plethora of seafood to a plethora of vegetables. And yet, each bite tasted different from the previous one. Tastes tramped around my mouth and every new taste seemed to complement the previous. I look forward to blogging more. It may be about writing or it may be about my recent travels, or perhaps it will be about my beaut...

Paintbrush and Trigger: March 2010

http://paintbrushandtrigger.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

Monday, March 1, 2010. Though I am only averaging one poem a month as well as some nonfiction mutterings, I am still putting that MFA to good use. For the past few years I have been thinking about creating a writing outreach program and finally, I did it. Of course, it took a great group of 11 th. Graders to attempt such a thing. AWOL, Aspiring Writers Outreach Locally, launched last week. My 4 th. So far so good. I am busy busy busy: teach, administrate, write (or think about writing), and run.

Paintbrush and Trigger: One more backpacking summer

http://paintbrushandtrigger.blogspot.com/2009/11/one-more-backpacking-summer.html

Tuesday, November 17, 2009. One more backpacking summer. I have managed to do it again. A plane ticket to Europe. June. Barcelona. When I return a new stage begins. I feel the nakedness of my finger. I feel the warmth. That awaits. Princess-cut, perhaps. I never thought I'd say this. Never. I want marriage. I want children. I feel lucky just thinking about it. I feel loved. And going to Spain will be pretty cool as well. November 17, 2009 at 9:08 PM. November 19, 2009 at 4:10 AM. View my complete profile.

Paintbrush and Trigger: October 2009

http://paintbrushandtrigger.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html

Tuesday, October 27, 2009. It's hard to always be positive. The more I challenge students, the more the parents challenge me about grades. The more time I spend working on things for the classroom, the less time I have on my own writing. I confessed to Mark Doty. A few weeks ago at his reading/craft talk) that teaching at the high school level sometimes, many times drains me. He said that I have to be able to on occasion say, "Make this. Okay good, now go make another one.". And then there is Facebook.

Paintbrush and Trigger: May 2009

http://paintbrushandtrigger.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Thursday, May 28, 2009. A little bit of this, a little bit of that. In my attempt to eat fresh, healthy food without cooking every single day, I have discovered the pure joy of organizing what my boyfriend and I now call "a tray" for dinner once a week. The above is a picture of the first official tray night. We picked out the food together: Havarti cheese, Italian bread, shrimp, cottage cheese, cherry tomatoes, and prosciutto. After returning from the grocery store, I went for a run and when I came back,.

Paintbrush and Trigger: My Ireland

http://paintbrushandtrigger.blogspot.com/2010/08/my-ireland.html

Sunday, August 29, 2010. Spain was lovely, but I of course took a few days to go over to the mistress land. My Ireland. I don't think I could ever be in Europe without going to Ireland for at least a couple of days. Equally fascinating and nice to know that someone else got out of Dodge (if this is the Jen that went to Conneaut High) if so, again- drop a line. truebassbriton@gmail.com. Have you been to Wales?
