1.) well incase you're wondering, I did get the job. :D Well, it's not an official school job, persay, but a long-term substitute job for the rest of the year. But yep! It's mine. The only 2 sucky parts I've found about this job are 1) it's extended day, which means I have no prep period and 2) my 3rd period is the spawn of Satan. Literally, the spawn of Satan. They're disgustingly evil. Kids that have been kicked out of schools for fighting and drugs and all that shit. So YEAH, woo-fucking-hoo. I get to the point where I'm scared for 3rd period to come sometimes.
2.) Fog delay today! Woohoo! 2 hour fog-delay for the nasty Bakersfield Tule Fog means school doesn't start till 10:25. Which is why I can post this right now. I'm going to get into the shower here in a bit anyway and go in early to get some work done. I FINALLY got computer access so I have dozens of things to do.
3.) This weekend is a 3 day weekend, and as per tradition we're going to Pismo this weekend to the trailer. I'm excited too because our neighbors down the street (Jenn, Kevin and their kids Ryan and Kyra) are going also. Should be loads of fun. I'm kind of bummed, though. Because of this newfound job, I can't take off Friday and Tuesday like I was supposed to. Now I have to leave immediately for the beach Friday after school, and then come back Monday afternoon.
4.)
Sarah, we need to talk about Fontana and figure out how we're getting down there and where we're staying, 'cause if your mom doesn't want us to try to stay with Ruth we've got to get a hotel NOW before they get booked. Also if they're morning races maybe we should drive down Friday night to get there and ready for Saturday sort of thing. This way I figure out if I need to see if I can get a period or two off that Friday.
5.) Pirate has crawled up onto the bed with me and is sprawled out between my legs and Blitzen is sprawled out on the other side of the bed. And people wonder why I have a hard time getting up in the morning. Too many warm bodies on the bed keep it nice and cozy!
6.) I appreciate the beauty in hand-dyed sock yarn immensely. But I have no desire to spend hours knitting socks. Don't get me wrong, but I have knit exactly one pair...well..not a pair, persay, but 1 and 1/2 socks. Heh. I hate turning the heel, so it's been in it's little bag for oh, a year?
7.) and I should probably get ready now, since I intended to show up at school around 9 even with the fog delay to do grading and it's 8:35.
Oh, and doesn't Torchwood start in the U.K. this weekend????
