I had a good day. I woke up a little on the late side and did a little yoga before heading out for my day w/ Bruzzer. We had fun at Six Flags, went on a couple of rides and saw a tiger show *and* a dolphin show. It was super good.
We got home later than originally planned and when combined with the fact that I had a sore throat this morning and traffic was really bad, I had to make the grown-up decision *not* to head into the city to go to gypsyecks bday party, which makes me sad, because I love her. BUT I promised her we'd celebrate soon and I feel confident she still loves me. She said so. :)
I am starting to feel human again. It was a long, rough semester. Mainly because it was cold and I was sick a lot. But thats starting to fade from my mind and body and I am reconnecting with myself. Its very nice. I am also reconnecting with dear friends who I have missed, so thats good too.
I am starting to get very excited about my upcoming at least temporary move westward. Nervous, but excited too. There's a lot to decide and do, not to mention the class I am teaching that starts in two weeks and the dissertation that apparently won't just write itself, but still, its good.
Speaking of dissertations, I had an odd conversation with my advisor last week regarding going on the job market. It wasn't odd because of the content, we mainly just talked about what I needed to do and when and all that, what was weird about it was I was sitting there, seriously talking with someone about getting a job as a Professor. And I just want to laugh every time I think about. Me, a Professor! hehe. Thing is, I have been teaching college for four years now. I am a Professor. I taught 3 classes with well over 130 students this semester. And yet, the thought of going out and getting a job where that's my title cracks me up.
Now I am going to watch a movie. I decided I am taking tomorrow off work for a mental health day since I have just started to relax, I am not interested in revving myself up again quite yet. I might take Tuesday off, too, I haven't decided yet. I just know I deserve it. :)
