Life gets so busy.
So, for the last few months, I've been working my ass off to get a job, a good one, that will pay me and even pay for my antibiotics when I get sick (which is definitely a hazard of teaching small, germy creatures... aka elementary school kids). So I'd been working so hard at getting a job, that the reality of actually securing a job is still sinking in.
I'll be teaching first grade next year. First grade Spanish-Immersion. Sweet. I'll have twenty students (awesome class size!) and a young and supportive staff, plus a principal who seems to be genuinely terrific. I will have a quite the commute-- 31 miles roundtrip, I figure, but there's a really good chance that I can carpool with fellow teachers who also live in our awesome, St. Paul neighborhood.
I'll also be getting married in the fall. Wow. That's something that's still sinking in. I'm so psyched to be declaring my legal status as being in love with such a true friend. We're planning the party of our lives. Which we're obsessively "greening" up - even recycling and re-using invitation flub-ups as we make them. It's really a cool project to work on.
I'm headed to Chicago this weekend to see my dear friend Ruthie, my old Arts High, Delta Dorm, roommate/fellow RA. I'm ecstatic to be going to visit her, see the countryside of flooded Wisconsin and leave the Twin Cities area-- it's been a while.
So, job- check, wedding- check, leisurely travel-check.
Life is so exciting.
