I just realized that for the first time in months I have enough expendable income to take some sort of roadtrip, on some days off, and go see friends! What an awesome realization! I'm all a titter. I'll probably head down to Annapolis but ALSO New York is housing a great deal of acquaintances...hm hm hm. Feeling good.
Even though I was sick all weekend I felt great because I went on a swell date on Saturday woop woop woop. What a sweet boy, for making my knees all weak! Hazaah.
Being a preschool teacher would be awful if kids weren't so damned delightful. This morning I grabbed "Arthur's Valentine" off the shelf to read out loud, and one little girl stood up, jumped into the air with her arm pumping the motions of glory, and with ear shattering joy wailed "Arthurrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!", sending all the other kids into fits of giggles- oh GOD it was so funny all of the teachers stopped what they were doing and burst out laughing. Another special moment was when a kid told me a ten minute story about how he had to peel cheese off of his hand because otherwise the cheese seeds would make cheese flowers and the cheese flowers would bust up his fingernails.
I'm going to audit my mom's course on early childhood anthropology or something at Umass tonight. Even though it's no Don Quixote, I'm pretty thrilled to be going to a class of any kind at this point.
