well, not the skinheads. just me. and gina. and a league one of her coworkers is in. haven't bowled for a while now. we'll see if i'm having an on night or an off night.
thought i better step in here before i leave in 20 minutes so that my reader cannot point out the error of my way and recommend i throw in the towel on this whole lent thing since i failed yet again (i'm pretty sure they were joking...pretty sure).
something to think about: hilary clinton points to her experience making her a more viable candidate than barack obama. she usually points to her time in the white house as first lady giving her the edge. but i don't understand how this makes her more experienced. just because you're the spouse of a brain surgeon and have been in the hospital and watched as surgery was being performed doesn't mean the next time i need to have a tumor removed i'm going to turn to you. being in the general vicinity doesn't make you more qualified.
i'm just sayin'.
the OGT madness is over for another year - don't have to think about it for another five months or so. there was a palpable sense of relief in the air today, though i have to say, i'm going to miss having that extra two and a half hours at the beginning of each day to get stuff done. but at least next week is a short week - three "normal" days and one pep assembly day. not sure i'll make it through act iii of the scottish play, but we'll give it our best shot.
i have recently thrown my hat in with the St. Elizabeth's Arts Foundation that launched recently. i told them of my interest in theatre and so am getting to do a little dreaming and a little planning about what that might look like in the context of the foundation. today i got an email asking if i would be interested in meeting with some local high school students and getting their feel for what they would like to see happen. are you kidding? of course i'm interested. it's one of those areas that i feel i haven't quite achieved yet - one of the reasons i got into teaching high school is because i hoped to find opportunity to work with teens and drama. so maybe this will be the outlet i've been looking for. we'll see.
time to get my bowling gear on (i guess it's college night in the league, so i'm going to pull out my golden flashes stuff). here's hoping i can move my arm tomorrow...
