It's Sunday, two weeks from my last post. The sun has come out, I have put sunscreen on kids at work (not today), and the one lecture for week 13 of my Speech Anatomy class was between 10 and 11 minutes long, followed by a quiz with a 5 minute time limmit. I got one question wrong the first time, so I took it a second time, submitting it perfectly the second time in 1 minute and 10 seconds. It kind of reminds me of when I told my advisor at my community college that I did really (annoyingly) well at Chemistry without even trying very hard, and I wasn't sure if I should try for a career in Chemistry (i.e. teaching highschool chemistry) or if I should flee from it. I think she leaned towards the fleeing suggestion. So the plan is: I'll finish this class and then take a break. (Haha.) The break will leave me with more time and resources for completing my "move to town" scheme. I'm actually ready to move mentally, but really feeling a little lost in life right now (not a rare feeling).

update

New dishes, new towels, a growing collection of stuff for when I (Lord willing) move. I'm trying to move south to a warmer climate with less snow - but I mean somewhere around 20 miles south to a city in which I already work and go to church. So, my local friends, worry not.

I cleaned my room Saturday. Under my bed, I found notes on breathing (translation; notes for my Anatomy of Speech class), my camera!, a pair of sandals, my "nice" shoes, and dust bunnies. That might explain the "almost getting a cold" feeling. I removed all but the dust bunnies (thus, the "allergies" have a right to continue, though they seem better today. Does that mean I'm allergic to shoes? Oh, but I did wash my sheets, so it could still be dust).

I also desided that I'd had enough of empty walls. I think the calander may have been added to the wall earlier in the week, but the door decorations and three crayon and/or marker drawings from work were added Saturday. So I have one wall that is less spartan, and the rest look like they did the week before. But I figure the things on the wall shouldn't be any worse than the MESS I've been perpetuating in my room (that got a lot better Saturday, too, but it's looking worse already. Folding and putting away clothes really helps. Dumping laundry on beds doesn't help the clean-looking rating).
