Let the Craziness Commence!!!
Wedding Plans: okay, it looks like the event is going to happen at Leverick Bay, BVI on July 11th. The after-party for our friends who can't come is September 19th, at our house, AKA the 6th annual Pig Roast. I have found my friend Faith specializes in formal wear, and really understands what I want from a dress, so she is charged with the duty of making said dress. The colors are pale blue with orange accents, and the men will definitely be in Hawaiian shirts.
We will be bareboat sailing around the islands during the two weeks surrounding the event, so our honeymoon will most-likely not be spent alone together, which is okay. We got the rest of our lives to be alone, or not so alone, together :-D
Health: The results from the physical say I have no disorders, only cholesterol is a touch high. I'm pursuing a low-cholesterol diet, eating way more veggies and fruit, and have joined a gym and am setting myself to 20 minutes on the elyptical a day, followed by stretches and weight training (regulating between upper and lower body strength, but always hitting up the abs. I feel pretty good, except for this feeling in my nose as if I have a cold, but am not congested. It's a weird feeling. I think allergies are kicking in or something.
Grad School: AAAAAGGGGHHHH!!! Whew, okay. Yeah, I have 2 projects due this week, feel behind on them, and I am facilitating discussion on Monday. This is clearly not easy. I am easily distracted.
Work: The kids are getting chatty as they have become comfortable with me. I still get a few looks from some of the kids in the hall who don't have me, but most of them know me as "the bald teacher that drives a Harley." :-D Excellent, I think they fear me.
My stubborn co-worker has been kicking and screaming as hard as ever, and I spend most of my planning explaining to her what teaching is supposed to be like nowadays with this new-fangled idea of repetition within different contexts (long story). I feel like she's just like the kids, and I spend an entire block teaching her what is expected of us because she has some serious comprehension problems and is so closed-minded she refuses to change. It really sucks, because she's old enough to be my mother, and she's such a nice lady, but damn is she hard-headed.
