ho...hum...
Well, I got a good night's sleep, I guess. I'm pretty sure I got eight hours. Maybe a little less because I woke up at 3am and took a pee and checked email.
I work today. I haven't worked in a minute! I've been taking time to SERIOUSLY work on LAZARUS to ensure that it comes out on time. We've had a few snags with the cover design but nothing that my highly capable designer couldn't handle.
I'm not really looking forward to work, though. I mean, I am, but I'm not. I am because I'll get to see a few co-worker/friends that I miss. And I'll probably be entertained by the sixth graders. It's funny how the fourth and fifth graders SUCK but the sixth graders this year are pretty mellow. But I'm NOT looking forward to it because I am soooooo used to doing my own thing now. Working on LAZARUS during the day, I can take me a nice nap at around 2 or 3, make phone calls, work in absolute silence if I want. At work, I will immediately have three solid hours to fill. God willing, they will have a special class in the morning, but you know it rarely works out that way. I will probably also have to do recess duty. I hope not! But it's a possibility.
I will do my best to stop bitching and just do it, though. I can be a little....bitchy at times, I guess. Maybe not bitchy, but I use this diary to vent somewhat. So maybe I come off as a complainer.
Oh, who am I kidding, I complain like shit. But I like to think maybe I am a little more gracious in real life.
Instant connections....developing connections....yeah, all of that. It's nice to feel at ease with someone, doesn't it? The only thing that would feel better would be proximity.
I got an email from Maya's mom on Saturday night....whoa, I wasn't expecting that. This is a really strong, really phenomenal lady, as are her daughters.
I also get emails from Vidal's friends, too. Maya and Vidal were so loved...so loved.
This weekend, many of Vidal's Alpha Phi Omega Brothers will converge upon Georgetown in celebration of the 99th pledgeline of Mu Alpha chapter. (Technically the 97th line to actually cross.) This line was dedicated to Vidal, so I am really excited to see them "shine" this weekend -- they they BETTER shine! "Miss Thang" would have nothing less!
Okay, time to shower. Have a great week everyone!
