Howdy
This week wasn't too bad school wise. I survived and wasn't as stressed as normal. yay! I was however sick, and that sucked. I felt really really good yesterday, then I took a nap around 8 and woke up with only about 50% of my voice. sucky!
Today I went and skated for the second time in about 9 weeks. It was a blast b/c two of my favorite people were there and we caused trouble, so that was fun. Plus I impressed my coach by landing 4 different doubles. I never got around to attempting the 5th one. So that is really good! Had to deal with a bit of a 9 year old breakdown today b/c my student accidentally scratched another girl w/ her blade. She felt so horrible about it, but the girl who got hurt just shrugged her shoulders and said "it's all good!" So I to do a bit of comforting.
Went to the UT vs. Kansas State game today. I went completely by myself. I never could get ahold of Sheri (who may have been avoiding me...not sure yet) and the other girl was off doing something else at Onion Creek. They bailed on me last week and I didn't go to the game, so this week I decided I'd try it out. My dad drove me down there. It was a little awkward the first half not having anyone to talk to, but it wasn't that bad b/c the people next to me weren't really talking to their friends either. I stayed and watched the band at half-time where it began to pour down rain. It was awesome. All of us that had stayed (and didn't run away like most of the girls...) had a blast. It was raining extrememly hard. I started to wonder if it might hail, but didn't really care. So I got soaking wet, but it loosened up the crowd. I saw a few friends of mine from anderson so i went and said hi to them. I ended up staying the whole game. Which sucked b/c the team sucked and we lost by 20 pts. I had to wait forever for my dad to get me b/c the cell phones were down between him and me so we were having to communicate through my mom, which never works out. But he bought me wendy's then came over here to eat which was nice. Now i have very little of my voice left between the rink, rain, and yelling at the team. Oh well. It was lost for a good cause.
This week I have to teach my own lesson plan, which worries me to some extent, but I love the kids so I'm not that worried about it.
I'm having a minor surgery on Thursday morning. I have developed a cyst (which may have been mentioned in previous entry, can't remember) on top of my right wrist. I saw the hand surgeon on Thursday and he really thought the best outcome would be from surgery. So it's done like a normaly surgery in that I will be sedated, but I won't be put to sleep. I'm getting something called a BEER block (not a nerve block) and I will get feeling back in my arm as soon as the surgery is over. I'm staying at my parents all day thursday and thursday night in case I decide to take the pain killer they've prescribed me. With my medical allergies, we always have to be cautious with things like this. But I should be fine b/c my mom has had it and been ok, and she and i are both allergic to vicadin.
I think that's about it for now. I'm going to go watch a bit more tv and eat another popsicle then hit the bed. Sounds like I'm going to the Pecan Street Festial tomorrow w/ Jenn and Charlie if I feel up to it. we'll see. y'all have a nice week now, ya here! :P
