Been a bit, but eh, why not. Next week its down to Disney for my usual month or so of summer fun. Also going to be moving out of Columbus, GA and back up toward Atlanta. Finally got a position as a high school theater teacher. No more middle school for me (EVER). Then we'll see about AC, maybe some time out in the Bay if I squeeze it in and ( Read more... )

Alas, summer is coming to an end. I've got roughly 3 more weeks of break before its back to the grind with year #3 of middle school. The summer started out nice, flew out to California, visiting with Crosscheck, checked out a volcano, went up to the Oregon coast and on a 104 mile boat tour on the Rogue River, and while cold and wet had a great ( Read more... )

I'll be there of course. Staying at the Westin, Thurs til Sunday, maybe Monday, but I'm thinking Sunday afternoon, since I always get bored and I don't do the dead dog stuff, and if I want to cut my drive home in half by staying with a friend too. We shall see. For those of my fellow LJ friends who'll be going, see you there. Afterward, a few ( Read more... )

I had an odd dream last night. I was at school of course, and a student of whom I had not let to go the bathroom the other day, had complained to her mother who had complained and called the media and so outside my room at school there were all these reporters making a big deal about how I hadn't let a child go to the bathroom, which apparently ( Read more... )

So I had been thinking about it, and the opportunity came up to get one, it was just what I wanted, and while I wish I could have gotten more on my trade in, oh well. I bought myself a new 2012 Prius C. I've driven it around a bit, and I'm quite happy with it thus far. The payment is a little high, but looking down the road, I think it'll do ( Read more... )

Survived my week at Disney. 55 hours in all. It was tiring, and I lost about 8lbs. Yay. Now if I could just lose another 15, heh. It's back to school tomorrow, but only 7 more weeks of kids and then summer break. I'll be AC again this year, and I'll be doing Disney again from June 24th to July 14th. Other that, summer plans are up in the air ( Read more... )

So Disney did schedule me to work Spring Break. 52 hours worth between Monday and Friday! We'll see if it lasts. Last time over spring break they gave me 5 days, then took away 2 and left me with 3 days. Unfortunately, its almost all at camp >.< Two of the days are 12 hour days at camp, and then a third is a 13 hour day at camp *cry*. Other ( Read more... )

Almost spring break, wooo! I just wrapped up my last play for the school year, thank gosh. It's nice to actually start to get to home everyday at a normal time instead of 6 or 7. Peter Pan went okay, then we did Monsters Under the Bed, and finished off with Snow Queen, which concluded Wednesday. All the usual stress of working with kids of ( Read more... )

As if I didn't have enough on my plate with teaching school all day, then directing Peter Pan for our fall play right now, I just got cast in the lead role of Edna in musical Hairspray. That's the role that John Travolta played in the movie. Hoo boy. This will be my first time up in the front, as in the past I've generally been in the chorus, ( Read more... )

Back to school on Wednesday. Time for round two ^.^ Lets see how well it goes this year.
