It is the season of two things here at Brevard:
Babies and Boyfriends.
Spring is usually puppy season around here, but it seems that more than that this year, it is the season for pregnancy. Between faculty, spouses of staff, and students much too young and stupid to be procreating, the air is ripe with the scent of morning sickness. Generally I find pregnancy to be an incredibly beautiful thing, but so many of these girls are without a partner, and their babies will be without fathers. It makes the whole phenomena unattractive.
And everyone who's NOT pregnant is busy working on it. I don't know what it is about March that makes everyone feel like they have to couple-up, but they do. It's as if the hibernating hormones have come out of a deep winter sleep and awake to a season of incredible fertility. Unable to control themselves, they leap into relationships (and beds). Even my roommate (I had it on good authority she had given up on men for awhile) is romantically involved. And... they just sat in my room making kissy face. Yikes! Control thyselves!
In other news, I'm doing well. I had brunch w/the freshman music crew this morning, and tonight LD and I will be going to the choir concert. Nice choral music to calm the soul. Stuff at Rosman high is going great, I have to look through the score today and make cuts because we have an actual accompanist who knows what she's doing this year!! I played Katamari at Laura's house for the first time last night, and am pretty much addicted. I may go over and play all afternoon if I can get some cleaning done. But I really should be doing my taxes. It's weird, I'm ready for this semester to be over, but not my classes... I'm ready to move out, but not ready to move in... agh, transitions. The story of my life. Stability? It'd be nice...
