Pretty Good Day
0700: alarm goes off, press snooze
0750: get out of bed, get interview presentable, grab food and drink
0812: leave driveway in car, heading for substitute teacher training/new employee orientation
0840: walk in about 10 minutes late, breathe a sigh of relief that I haven't missed anything important
1000: smile during the break when the message on my phone is a request to schedule an interview
1100: leave for lunch (decide on stuff from Wards supermarket or Budda Belly...hard decision)
1130: buy bunny food at the feed store
1215: eat about half a pound of cherries--Wards obviously won
1230: settle into a lovely inservice on how to be a sub, realize that 'at last, I'll know what the subs were told'
1500: leave the county office, heading towards a middle school where I've got an interview
1532: realize that this guy has no job for me, but enjoy the interview anyway, and allow him to call the other middle schools and put in a good word with the other principals
1620: sign in at my grandmothers, and see that she is doing the sleepy thing still. Notice how close her bones are to the skin, like on a little mouse.
1630: turn on TV and watch WifeSwap 1 Year Later episodes.....much better than the original episodes--actually pretty entertaining
1710: cheer internally when I get another call for an interview--tomorrow is going to be busy!!!
1815: convince my dad that the kid's meal at Moe's is plenty of food for the average adult
1900: enjoy the satisfaction of being right, as well as having had some excellent company over dinner
1913: search the auto-parts store for chip-fix for my windshield
1917: flirt a bit with the clerk as I cash out, and resist buying more of those 6-in-1 flippy screwdrivers, even though I was tempted!!
1925: stop at the grocery store on the way home for milk, and end up buying school supplies (crazy sales!) and $26 of groceries
1955: feed the very grateful bunny, mickey the dog, and water the plants
2008: after three tries, figure out the exact order of things that makes the lawn mower turn on, and proceed to mow the 'curb appeal' part of the yard until it was too dark to be safe
2052: take trash cans to curb, clear weedy garden section that is going to have herbs planted in it tomorrow, and dump stuff in compost pile
2133: step into the pool.....ahh....bathwater warm and wonderful!!!
2200: stop at the computer to check email before heading up for a shower and bed
2343: realize how late it is and start LJ post, contemplating all the different topics I had looked at over the last two hours-ish
0003: wish you crazy people a good night!
