I was going to be all good and go work out this morning, but this lousy cold (which I believe I picked up at home from my 6-year-old cousin) is making me want to curl up and pull the covers over my head and just stay there. Ugh. It’s not so bad that I can’t function…just that I’d rather not.
Yesterday, I went to the school where I’m going to be subbing. I got to talk to the teacher, who was not only very sweet but very well-organized. Yay for me. I want to try to keep their classroom routine in place as much as possible, and with the information she left me, that’s going to be really easy. I’ll be able to add my own little touches, but the foundation is very, very solid.
Umm…hmmm…because of how crazy things have been lately, I’m behind on a lot of things. Like reading submissions for TC. Bad, bad editor.
Interesting what has developed with the community college class…I really like my Tuesday class. My Wednesday class? Uh, not so much. That’s not entirely fair…there are a few of them that I really don’t like. I feel like they’re rolling their eyes and snickering every time I turn my back. The entire class is fairly unresponsive. Blah. Last night, they were really good about being understanding my not feeling so well and not wanting to do a lot of talking. Not so sure how it’ll go tonight.
Rand and I watched Napoleon Dynamite the other night. I’d heard widely divergent reviews after it came out…Jen saw it last week and loved it. I wasn’t so impressed. I thought it had a lot of funny moments, but didn’t feel like it held together so well.
Some other stuff I’ve seen recently:
Boogie Nights (thumbs up)
Spirited Away (thumbs up)
The Sure Thing (thumbs up…can’t believe I’d not seen this before. I had caught part of it on TV once, but never from start to finish.)
I also have an update to my 50-Book Challenge to put up…most recently finished Maus and am about halfway through the sequel.
Thanks to those who posted kind thoughts, both about my job situation and the other (ahem) situation. I do appreciate it! 🙂
