Fool for School
Yeah, I’m actually up here at school right now. I came up here at about 9 am to work on the mural in the teachers’ lounge (which looks AWESOME, by the way), and now I’m just waiting for Rob, April, and Colin to get up here so we can go get some lunch. And then it is off to home to continue packing.
And speaking of packing, I close on my house Feb. 23. Woot! I am so freaking excited about this, words can’t even describe it (although, I guess they just did). It will be so nice to have a place of my own, and Maggie will have her own back yard. I’ve been trying to get her pumped about the whole idea, but she’s been rather cynical about the whole ordeal. I think she’s waiting for it to actually happen for it to be real. Me too, in a way.
And I have had a really great week, actually. We started our Holocuast unit/lecture series on Monday, and I always enjoy teaching that. We had a snow day on Wednesday (which is good for this week, not so good when we lose that three day weekend at the end of the semester). I saw The Wrestler with my friend Tyler on Sunday. That was a pretty good movie. It’s one of those movies that are really well made, but sort of leave you feeling like you’ve been stopmed on. I don’t really need to see it again. I’m glad I got to see it with Tyler. I knew him from high school, and just recently been hanging out with him, and that’s been alot of fun.
Maggie has had me kind of worried lately. Her lumpy head situation has not gotten any better. The vet said that it is probably just mild head trauma (like her bumping her head accidently over and over again). But I’m still worried.
And finally, just to kill some time, I’ve been reading over some old posts. I have to admit that I am ashamed of some of the things I wrote. I didn’t make any thing up or post anything bad, but when I looked at the date of some of the posts, and then read into the mood of the post, I know for a fact that what I was feeling in reality did NOT match up to the positive vibe I was trying to convey in my writing. I’m definitely never never going to do that to my writing again.
