I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have no idea what the issue with my taxes was, but I will not use TaxAct again.

I hope to actually call someone at IRS and find out what the issue is. I know they still have me down for some reason as on the estimate payment system ( I was an independent contractor for 6 months, but that was 5 years ago).

Maybe nicely, Kat? I dunno.

My company changing will certainly complicate mine. I expect all my w2s will be late because they are assholes. But hopefully next year, new employer!

The status is NOT quo.

Omg this week.

New employer! Fingers crossed.

I've had two nice run ins with students and former students this week. One was appreciative that I made him listen to Serial last year because it came up in his creative nonfiction class and he got to be comfortably smart-appearing. The other was a girl who is in my 10th grade class that I found extremely challenging last year. She's really changed and she apologized for her behavior in 9th, which was sweet and unexpected.

I think I might be getting extremely sick -- my nose is unstoppably running. I am looking forward to my three weeks off. Here's to hoping I won't be sick for all of it.

Yeah. I think I am. My friend Beth tells me, though, I should keep working out because working out may stave off colds. I feel like shit and I've been up since 3:00 AM and I'm just generally not that into this illness.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I have had betterish results keeping swimming with everything but the stomach bug (that left me unable to move and sleeping on the bathroom floor.) At least swimming I feel moderately better. I go back to daid after. I've had bugs where I was vertical for basically the time it took to go swim.

And huh. I guess I ragehypotheticalquit today. And it felt good. I heard things I wasn't expecting, in the best sense ever. "Won't let you leave." "Person X(who is waaaay up food chain) specifically asked if you were on my shortlist." (Shortlist being those they go hell/high water for. I'm in.) Not going to rest on laurels, but it was a boost I sorely needed.
