Too Cool for School

Me and my Rhino Buddy

Tonight, I wonder if I'll ever stop working. I don't mean retiring, getting fired, quittting and sponging off society of anything like that. I just wonder if I'll ever stop going and doing things. It always seems like I do too much. I keep my mind in a flurry until I feel like my brain's about to burst. And yes, it's because of the job. (Theatre teachers never stop!) But honestly, I don't get in the Word enough and really talk to God about what's bothering me until it's too late, and trouble is sitting on me like a big giant rhinoceros, squashing me, and I'm screaming, "I can't breathe!" This really makes teaching sound fun, doesn't it? Seriously, this could be anybody, not just a teacher. It ain't easy being a career girl.
On a happier note, I really like those sugar-free iced oatmeal cookies. I got them for my Mom because she's diabetic, and I ended up eating most of them myself. If they weren't more expensive than regular cookies, I think I'd make the switch. So..you should try 'em!
Did you know why I decided to get this blog? It's because nobody has enough minutes on their cell phones to hear all of these stories. Not all of them are shared. Some of the more personal ones are not, because our school has an infamous history of teachers and students who got in trouble for sharing a little too much info on Xanga. I don't want to be the next casualty. You'd have to call me for that stuff. But the spitwad stories are on the house.
