I'm going to attend the freelance writing group on Saturday. I'm VERY apprehensive about going because they request you bring a piece for critiquing. Well, I don't have anything to critique and don't want to rush on finishing something, just for the sake of finishing something.
I'm not going home because I can't afford it. Stupid money. Luckily this won't be the case next summer when I'm not working. I've also asked around for various tutoring positions and it looks promising. Only downer is that it won't start until school starts (nothing like a tutoring company, like Sylvan or Huntington).
Dogface's condition is improving. The antibiotics seem to be doing their job and getting rid of the staph. I keep finding chunks of hair and skin around his crate (I know, TMI), but losing that means he's healing. His ear infection is also going away, although squirting the meds in his ear is a large challenge. He's very strong for his 37 pounds.
Picked up a great book and finished it pretty quickly - now I'm on to the second. They are both by Jen Lancaster. She's a memoirist and writes in such a way that makes me laugh out loud when reading. I can see the situations she writes about happening in my head, but can also see various life events I've gone through that are similar. Either way, she's raunchy, real, and hilarious. Love it. Bitter is the New Black is first, and Bright Lights, Big Ass, is the second. Day 21 of All Good Things: Finishing up a workshop with great people and presentations. Learned some new ideas I can incorporate into my classroom this fall.
Day 22 of All Good Things: I was able to turn in my paperwork (albeit a month late) for payroll to pay me during the summer months. It sure helps to "kill with kindness"!
Day 23 of All Good Things: Hung out at B&N, met up on a fluke with some teacher friends, went out to eat and received lunch for FREE (took forever to make salads), and came home after a mani/pedi to a happy dog.
