Here are some things.  Some are much larger than others.  Each will get equal weight right now, as I should be getting into bed.

* I have been having a lot of trouble sleeping this past week.  I'm not tired, I toss and turn for at least an hour, my brain won't shut up, and then I'm exhausted in the morning.  Once this week I even slept through the blinking light of my alarm straight through to the loudly ringing bell.  It's the first time that's ever happened.

* My new obsession is "Ugly Betty."  I can watch it online, since I'm still in class during it's normal airtime.  It's horribly addicting, but so cute.  Plus, it's filling the hole left by the ending of my "Scrubs" DVD collection.  When will season 5 come out?

* I am struggling with my idea of being an educator, and what that means to me.  Sometimes I think that if I had a choice, I would never teach SOP again, and instead I would flit around in the background helping all the folks who are teaching, making their lives a bit easier.  But is that because I love organizing and running the show?  Is that because 5th grade really isn't my ideal age group?  Is it the science?  Who knows.  But it makes me nervous all the same.  Two degrees in education won't make me a great teacher if I don't have it in my heart.

* Two other environmental education training programs are sending their instructors to us in two weeks.  They are about our age, and then we'll go to one of their places for a night.  It should be pretty fun, and on a whim idea from a friend, I'm secretly hoping one of them will be the love of my life.  Not seriously, of course, but wouldn't that be fun?

That is all for now.
