The leaving work thing is intense. I have taught in the school that I work in for 16 years. I have raised a whole generation of kids. So, leaving this community is a bit like attending my own funeral. They are having a party for me on Wednesday. I am working on just being graceful with the good byes.

On a frustrating note. My retirement fund guy, fucked me, and not in a good way by giving me all this really bad advice, and I can't get the process of moving started until my actual last day of work, next Friday. So that is super scary.

Did I tell you that I am directing this huge play with 40, 4 year olds as my swan song? Oh, yeah, cuz life is just not difficult enough. I am mounting a production inspired by the "yellow submarine". I have 2 girl Beatles. How cute is that?

A parent at the school, for my birthday tomorrow, lgave me the Amnesty International record of John Lennon covers. It is an amazing album that has given me a good excuse for my tears. It's strange how the lyrics move me differently. Like in "Instant Karma"

What in the world you thinking of
Laughing in the face of love

I never laughed in the face of love and I am proud of that, but maybe I little laughing with love is a good thing.

I also found a uke club and a uke class in the bay area, so that's good.
