'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Does it help to have a Very Texas accent when you phone bank for Beto?

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

unclear. I guess I could twang it up and see.

Hey. New board.

What part of Brazil, Gris?

São Paulo

Ooh! Brazil! What will you be doing there

Teaching! My wife and I are both teaching at Graded, The American School of São Paulo.

I hope you find time to share your experiences and observations.

I honestly haven't even begun to grok it. I probably should, but new country, new school, new students, new language, new apartment, I can't handle new political ickiness more than I have to.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's amazing -- did you just move for this school year?

Holy crap, am I exhausted. Went with the band to one of the Harbor Islands, where we picnicked/cooked out, and then played almost two hours. Phew!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think I know some folks who went to that school! (Like thirty years ago, but still!)

Vacation is over. We have unpacked, showered, eaten our first home-cooked meal in 2 days, and sorted all the accumulated mail. Sigh.

I tried to do some reading for my first grad school class that starts on Thursday, but my brain is too mushy from travel to retain any information.

it feels like someone has strapped a heating pad on 10 to my lower back, but from the inside.

Our wings are not tired.

I am home, past my bedtime. The big social event of the summer in Otter Lake at the fire department fundraiser bash. Food was steak, salt potatoes, and corn. None of which I eat, but I gave them lots of money for chinese auctions instead. And wine. Hugged and was social with people I have unfriended over politics. I wore a peace t-shirt. It was nice.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That sounds unpleasant, msbelle.

My accomplishments for the day were showering and changing the sheets on the bed. My sleeping and eating schedules are all out of whack.

Oh, and someone seems to be trying to get into my FB account. I've received two notifications today about requests to reset my password. I don't think they can do anything without the code that is being sent to my phone though.

Yikes msbelle! No fun.

I am so tired! I think my migraine is gone, but who can tell, because I'm pretty sure now I have a dehydration headache from sweating all day yesterday (am drinking water!). I'm going to see if I can get a foot massage today, at a nearby place I've never been to.
