So many good things to report. Since my last blog life has been nothing short of splendid. I've been happy and I'm getting back to being my old self rather quickly. This all makes my life a better place. Three things that have made it even better:
1 - Rehearsals for Lend Me A Tenor have started. I can't tell you how much this has saved my soul. Today I basically had just enough time to do everything I needed to between getting up and going to bed. It was brilliant. Rehearsals are a BLAST and this is going to be so much fun. I also got free breakfast at the first rehearsal, so I'm definitely not complaining.
2 - My sub job today was nothing short of amazing. I taught at a school for special needs children. I was a bit nervous about it when I first got there, but the day turned out to be awesome. Basically what I did all day is play go fish, and eat popcorn. However the highlight of the day was about an hour into it when they informed me that I would be swimming with the kids. And I did. It was unexpected, random, and so much fun! My job rocks!
3 - I got a job. I'll be a permanent sub/instructional assistant/all-purpose educational employee at the school where I was tackled by the 2nd Grade. I am so pumped for this. This means that I'll have a consistent paycheck and plenty of time to pursue other interests i.e. acting, dancing, singing. All the things that I love and adore.
So overall life is very very good at the moment, despite the fact that as I write this there is a pumpkin rotting on my front porch. I'm busy, I'm happy, I'm thriving. Exciting things are coming up, and I've even chortled a couple of times lately. That's right - chortled!

Ah, the rotting pumpkin that looks like an ornery old man. Good times.
YAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!
I can't tell you how amazing it is that you so much love special needs kids. The single most uncomfortable place you could put me would be to be in your sub situation from yesterday. no kidding I'd break out in a cold sweat and be scared to death. You have an incredible energy about you. We need more of you in the world.

I am so thrilled that your life has taken such a good turn. You are doing things you love and are very good at. You are amazing with kids and I am so thrilled about your new job. You are an amazing person. I learn from you constantly.
And dad is right, We do need more of you in the world. It makes me so proud to have you as my son!!
Swimming? Were you prepared for swimming? I mean, you didn't have to, like, borrow a "stock" swimming suit did you?
