a good saturday so far
i am covered in green mud and just got out of the pool.
the mud is on purpose, one of those skin masks that i try every once in a long while on a whim. hey its burts, how bad can it be.
the pool felt good solely because i love to swim
not in the exercise sense, although it is the only form of exercise i can ever see mself willingly doing on a regular basis.
but it wasnt exercise today
today it was because i have to have things on my weekend list that are just for me
and its hot and humid here already.
i was expecting the plunge in to be so much more refreshing but the sun had already gotten to the water. granted it was cooler than the air and when you get out it does feel better
i would have dived and floated around and stuff for a lot longer but i already sat outside this morning and i didnt want to get a sunburn
imogen got a shady spot and watched
and none of the stupid people in my condoplex said anything mean to me
unlike last time when i was on the phone it the hottub and these three drunk guys pointed out laughing that i was alone. when i pointed out that i was talking on the phone they said "oh yeah sure"
i have hope that the further toward summer we get the less asshoels will be around. they had their graduations yesterday and today and there have already been some move outs
of course theres always subletters but a happy thought occurred to me last night as i was walking the dog
i found myself consecutively passing three unattractive couples and it struck me as strange and i got happy thinking that maybe thats who moves in over the summer because its cheaper and they dont have as much money to go to france and get dermotological or cosmetic whatever and instead stay around and have fun and work. that made me happy and hopeful, especially in contrast to my old opinion of summer when i was younger that it was the time when everyone got half naked and showed themselves off and paired up and i felt left out. i guess thats partialy because i was up north and people can be half naked all the time around here.
anyways i also got a lot of work done this morning
i took my puter to my favorite french toast destination that has a garden with an ancient live oak tree that you can sit under and eat your food with your dog and watch the guy check on the herbs and tomatoes and peppers that he is growing for the restaurant. after i finished my lesson planning i typed up two long pieces documenting some of the problems i have been having with this one troubled soul of a child that i alternate between psudonyming fred and hellion. they were professional and more analytical than i have been able to be about it for a long time because really it has gotten under my skin and i have been desperately close to burning out the last few weeks.
my two days off i gave myself this week paid off it seems
i finished my self evaluation last night and cleaned my toilet today and am waiting for laundry to dry so i can take a shower, run up to work to take care of a few more things and then hopefully go out to a nice dinner with my friend.
and hopefully continue to accomplish things tomorrow but not as much for work and more for myself. ya know bills, etc.
oh and while i am at work i am going to make progress towards finalizing summer travel plans to see those that rock and live in places less friggin hot than here!
hope your saturday is also good or better or restful or whatnot
must rinse mud- it is crushing me!
