I'm Alive
I promise. I am also drunk. It's ok, I was at my Mom's and we were all together (lots of the 'connected' women and such) and I learned a lot re: lax and it's a good thing. I have a lot on my plate right now and I'm not all that excited about it.I didn't tell you, Patrick (my co-worker/teacher that I planned with ALL THE TIME found my blog the other day-oops).
Everyone say "HI" to Patrick.
I don't know what I'm doing and it drives me crazy but I think I am going to try and start a graduate program. I think I like the teaching thing. I know, I always scoffed at the idea and it kills me, too, to think of it. I believe it's irony's way of getting back at me. Sucks, but what are you going to do?
So I need to start a whole graduate program thing. I need to e-mail this lady about it (so you have got to remind me) and find out some more specific details. Who would have thought I would have gone for a maters degree? Not me so that's at least a good thing.
My toe is disgusting. I did the marathon, 14 minute miles for the whole 26. But I stayed with my parents. So, we made the first 10 at a 14 minute pace, the rest were a whatever, I don't really want to know. I would leave them, get to the next mile marker at 14m or less, then wait until they showed to start again.
It's ok. It was actually a very good thing because they actually finished (which was actually a little questionable if I am going to be completely honest).
I was sore for a few days then good until yesterday. I decided to have a nice, full body deep tissue massage. Today I am as sore as the day after, or worse. Whatever, I'm not worried because I know it'll get better and that in the long run it's good for me.
My kids (students that I teach) are such a pain in the butt, but are so cute at the same time - they think that Patrick and or Greg (another teacher) and I are dating. It's sweet, right? I love that they are thinking about me enough that they at least want me to be getting some.
That's a step, right???
Anyway, I need to be on here more, or on some other site that I need to create that I am certain to be unknown, but for now I think this is it. I am freezing and tired and I need to do the laundry. (Did I mention that I am going skiing for the first time next weekend? Well if not, I am, and I am very nervous about the whole thing - so wish me luck and keep me in your prayers, please).
Love you all and hope all is well in your beautiful corner of the world.

the things that give us true joy cannot be measured in dollars and cents, only in the mirror can we truly see what we have become.
Thank you Zen master.
