Multiple Uses March 27, 2009

Awhile back I bought a “magic wand.”  To be honest I was a little disappointed in it – I still prefer my bullet.  Anyway, I’m getting a new mattress tomorrow so of course I had to clean out all the kinky stuff I keep under my bed.  I found the box for my magic wand.  It wasn’t marketed as a sex toy but rather a real massager.  I’ve been having horrible knots in my neck lately so I figured I’d try it.  It made my shoulders feel a lot better!  I’m pretty psyched about it.

The main reason I’ve been getting knots lately (which I have *never* had before in my life) is because of things at work.  Mid-February my co-teacher took a leave of absence.  One of the other teachers said she’s only working part-time next year because she’s going to go to college full-time.  Another teacher found a lump on her breast and is having a biopsy next week so that has potential to be bad.  The last teacher is pregnant and is due around the holidays next year (quite possibly the worst time for a teacher to have a baby!)  So, yeah, odds are the stress in my life is just beginning.  But at the same time, I don’t really have much to complain about – things could be A LOT worse.

Hiatus End? March 10, 2009

Wowt!  It’s been a while.   I took a break from blogging for a while, but I’d rather not get into the why’s of that.

 

There hasn’t been a whole lot to write about in the last couple months.  My co-teacher is on personal leave indefinitely so I’ve been working mostly 10 hour days, plus a couple hours each night of working at home.  Good thing I love my job!  I’m exhausted though.  I know there are some people who work 12 hour days, 7 days a week so really, I shouldn’t complain.  I could never be one of those people.  I sleep a lot on the weekends – it’s how I refresh.  But, by the time I finally feel back to being “me” I’m stressed all over again because I didn’t accomplish what I should have over the weekend.  It’s a vicious cycle!  My teaching is suffering too, I can tell.  That’s the hardest thing to deal with.

 

There isn’t a whole lot to discuss on the guy front.  I’ve been chatting with a guy from NYC.  I normally don’t even entertain the idea of long-distance but he swears he’s open to relocation.  But, I’ve learned my lesson!  I’m not gonna talk about it or get my hopes up until it actually happens!
