OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOD. I just signed on for a permatemp position as a middle school language arts teacher. It's from August 29th to October 31st. This is great, because once I get certified ,this school may want hire me on full time, and if not, this gives me strong experience to use to look for a full-time position. Still, I have two weeks to get ready and learn the curriculum and prepare lesson plans and learn all the software and and and. I am excited and terrified!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Our wings are not tired.
Very exciting, Scrappy ! Congrats.
Quiet Friday here. I had a funeral to attend earlier for a best friend of my oldest sister. The woman had been bedridden for years following strokes, so mostly it was relief that she was free from pain. It was nice to see old family friends.
Now I want to nap.

Congratulations, Scrappy!
A nap sounds wonderful, Laura. I've only been back from vacation a few days, but I'm already running a sleep debt, what with one thing and another.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's so awesome, Scrappy! Good luck!

Yay scrappy! I'm getting a haircut shortly, but have very few plans this weekend. Maybe I'll go to the movies!

Congrats, Scrappy!
I'm also getting a haircut this afternoon. My wild weekend plans involve volunteering in Golden Gate Park and going to the farmer's market.

I also have few plans and really want to go to the movies. My mother might want to see 8th Grade, but otherwise, I'll go to Crazy Rich Asians.

I'm uninstalling some bits on my customer's computer, he says "So, if we're cleaning off stuff I don't need, should I get rid of that C++ stuff too?" "No! Don't touch that!" "You sure?" "Don't uninstall anything you don't know exactly what it is. Especially anything that says Microsoft."
His company name is Old School Restorations. He's got an AOL email address. If I was in the room with him I'd have told him to go out and drink some coffee on the porch or something.
