Cup o' Reality
No wonder I'm drinking so much water.
Drank a cup o' reality at 8:52 p.m. on Thursday, May. 27, 2004


I had an interview last Thursday.

I was sure that it went horribly.

They called and left a message on my machine Monday.

I called them Tuesday and left a message.

I called them again on Tuesday and left a message.

They called back later on Tuesday and offered me a job. I cried.

I called to say “Yes” on Wednesday.

I have a more than wonderful job north of The Cities at a really good school district with an excellent hockey program.

Also on Wednesday, Mr. Math came in and made up with me. I cried.

Later on Wednesday, my 4 sophomore girls came over so I could tell them. We cried.

Today I passed up the job opening I saw for the Jr. High in town I live in. I cried.

Tomorrow I’m telling my students that I’m being non-renewed. I’ll cry.

Interesting how happy news doesn’t always cancel out the sad.
