i love not working...

at times, i really like being a teacher. take today and tomorrow for example, i don't work while the rest of the world is hard at it. we get the days off for teacher training, and i put in a whole 5 hours today listening to a lady talk about signs of sexual abuse. it actually was really interesting, but disturbing at the same time. last year we had a case at our school and weren't sure how to handle it. here to find out, we did everything we were supposed to do.

i teach at a Montessori school, which is private. there are only 4 classrooms with like 100 kids in the whole school. it has it perks like having summers, holidays, and weekends off. Then again, the pay sucks big time which is why i occasionally fill in at a bar when necessary. is it really that wrong to be a teacher AND a barmaid? anyway, it'll be nice to have to day off tomorrow to run errands, clean and take a nap.

bison will be here tomorrow night...i'm pretty excited to see him. not so sure where this "relationship" is going though. he just got a new job offer that he accepted today. he mentioned that he could see himself at that company for the rest of his life. i am extremely happy for him, as it was a 20% pay raise.

we live 2.5 hours away from each other. i don't have any desire to ever move to the city he lives in and he clearly isn't going anywhere in the future. i know i shouldn't think so far into the future (or like i always say "put the cart before the horse") but what's the point of even getting involved with someone if you never will live in the same town as them? maybe i should have thought about this relationship thing a little bit better....

Does he know you don't want to ever move to where he lives?
