| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- in which sleep is loved but gets in the way back at work after 11 glorious days off...well the days during which i had a cold were not glorious, but it was still better than being at work. Which is to say - and I've said it before - it feels more and more as if I could move on from this place. Perhaps I will get a nice big promotion and that will change my mind. Or not. Whatever the case, I'm still working on putting things in place. I still haven't received my formal letter of acceptance from the college district (if it doesn't come this week, I'll perhaps get worried)...but I did get another email from G asking if I'd be interested in teaching an advanced English comp class at my neighborhood high school. And that would be kind of cool I think because it might help me ease out of my fears of standing in front of a large group of people who think that maybe I should know something. I like high school kids...and high school kids motivated enough to take extra, college-level classes will probably be great. The only downsides: The class starts in mid-January and I really didn't want to start until the fall AND the class is early. As in it starts at 8:15 on Monday (not so bad) and 6-freaking-50 a.m. on Wed (that is bad)...but I feel like if I actually get a real offer of this, I should just suck it up and do it. But, seriously, something in my life is going to have to give....but there's so much I want to do....but...if i get the teaching gig then the freelance gig will have to go- I won't need the money and it's not that much fun anyway...and i may have to give up the space at the antique mall if I really want to devote time to the new vintage clothing store K. & I are doing on eBay and, theoretically, want to open in the so-called real world...but what about my own writing? And just reading books? I need to find time for this stuff...if I didn't love and need sleep so damn much..... and of course now it's the holiday season which I love but I do already feel overwhelmed. Tonight I'm sitting down with a calendar and list and meticulously plotting schedules and gifts and ideas and recipes - now, whose idea was it to have a cocktail party on December, the 22nd? Mine....yes...oh lord....what have I gotten myself into? 11:40 am - 03.12.07
sounds: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- previously on ... - next time on ...
