a month?


9.9.12

So while in Japan, I let loose to my brother that I thought this blog was the stupidest idea I had ever had.  The photos I love taking, but the writing, while I love to do that as well, is just flat out annoying. 

It has been a month.  How THE HELL did that happen?  I spent some time babysitting the neighbors’ hermit crabs.  Is it bad that now I want one?  My apartment is in shambles, and my dependence on caffeine is going strong.  Year 7, in classroom 6 has begun.  Typical beginning of year exhaustion has set in.  The air con in my new room is bitchin’ and I have instructed the kids to bring sweatshirts. 

I painted the bathroom.  It’s a very small room, I like painting and I wanted a change.  I don’t normally dig change (har har har) so the smallest room possible seemed like a good place to start.  Don’t ever paint anything cabbage green – it’s gross.  Mint Hint has turned out to be a much better choice.

I am doing my darndest to keep a positive spin on this year.  The looming changes that could be rumors but probably aren’t make that tricky…but I’m trying.  The air conditioning helps.
