I LOVE MY FAVORITE MUSICAL!!!!!!!!!!!! you know that high you get from your favorite musical??????????????????

i start teaching tomorrow!

http://www.sksm.edu/academics/spring_2007.php

and i'm initiating an early bed policy for myself, given my hours this semester.

p.s. lydia set me up with a new friend in my neighborhood with whom i share a common passion. hoorah!

for those who asked -

1) go to www.sksm.edu
2) say hi to my roommate leon, who's smiling at you
3) click the "podcasts" section on the lower right
4) click "listen now" on the featured podcast

in my class this week it came across that i was a graduate student, trainer/consultant, and college instructor. i can't think of any words the same way after all of the lakoff, so they strike me now in an intense way. i feel incredibly old (?) and incredibly young (?)at the same time. ahh, dualism. live it, love it.

done with the semester. except for student evaluations that i can't write yet anyway. spent the evening in the city with drew and then at leahdarcyjacquikat's house.

in other news, i love and am honored to be a youth advisor.

i am so proud of my brother.

no small feat!

i've recently been inspired to figure out how to get myself to germany in the next few months. i also need to read it more.

i love being a youth group advisor.

i would be very lucky if i could pull this off, but summer 2007 might look like this:

SF Bay
Boston
Amsterdam
Germany
SF Bay
Portland
Boston
Ithaca
Boston
Toronto
SF Bay

whew! tired already... hopeful, though!

Dear Colorado,

I know you'll miss Drew, but I'm really excited he's going to move to the Bay. Holler!

Sincerely,
Betty Jeanne
