Well, I woke up this morning with the same mildly sore throat that I had last night. I spent most of the day laying about, drinking mass amounts of fluids; mostly orange juice. I had no assignment, so I spent some time working on that logo design in Illustrator. I skipped choir rehersal for the first time. I didn't make much sense to go if I couldn't sing, and I didn't want to get the rest of the choir sick. However, other than the throat, I don't feel sick.
Which brings me to a dilemma about tomorrow. Do I try to get a teaching assignment? It is my last vacation day, then after the weekend it's back to work. Having the week off has been really nice, and I'm realizing, now that I don't have to teach, how uncomfortable subbing always made me. It was a relief to stop. Even though I could use the extra money, it is very difficult to convince myself to spend the day herding difficult children. Maybe this vacation should be just that...vacation. I'm still getting my regular pay after all.
Being poor sucks (she typed on her shiny computer). Ok, that's just being whiny. I guess I am just tired of having to keep such a tight budget and be good all the time. I'm sick of having to justify every damn thing I buy. Boo-hoo. Get out the teeny-tiny violin and play me a sad song, will ya?
Alright, how 'bout I cheer the fuck up, and stopp bringin' yall down?
I'm on a paid vacation!!!!!
There. That felt good.
