What am I doing?



Finally subbing again. Before I got to the school, I forgot my ID badge, and realized that I hadn't been in front of a classroom in 7 years. Did it show? I don't know, but during the health section of the day I was reading what the teacher instructed, and a kid said, "I want to go home. What time are we done?"

View from our balcony.



Don't be jealous.

The neighbors in the bottom right hand corner are the ones with the kid that rang her bike bell in the courtyard for a solid 15 minutes. One day, their other kid yelled for someone by the name of Anton for 5 minutes.

"Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton."

I wanted to yell, "For God's sake, Anton, ANSWER HIM!"

Problem solved.

I interviewed today at the Burbank School District for a Substitute Teacher position. I was telling my interviewer, herself a Principal at a school with many deaf children, that I was hoping to go back and study sign language to become an interpreter. It wasn't a lie, I've wanted to continue that study for years.

The principal smiled at my response. "That's great," she said, "and, you know, with those cochlear implants curing it, there won't be a need for long."

It was a polite way of saying, "Good luck, idiot, they cured deafness."

Cured? News to me.

At Disney.



This goes all around the hotel rooms at the Disneyland hotel. Once we finally got here, Erica surprised me with a 12-pack of beer. Now it truly will be the happiest place on Earth.

Santa Monica.


Driving around town trying to find an apartment, and thought I'd take a detour down to Santa Monica so Erica can see it.

Back in California.

Looking for me?


Where have you been, you're asking me constantly. I know, I know dear nobody, I have been blogging somewhere else. Don't be mad, just head over there to check it out. I just wanted to give another site a try. But you're always going to be my number 1. Don't worry.


That's what I've been up to. Read every entry before you come back here.

Great, now I really have killed any readership I might have had.
