Blech!

I don't know what is going on in the starts, but this week has been full of trials and tribulations - more so than a Six Flags theme park! I'll leave you with a couple of awesome pictures I found somewhere and saved.  Hopefully the meme police won't arrest me for lack of citing their efforts. The "Agh!  F@*$ IT!" Moment at work.

I'm stuck in a black hole for no reason in particular. Source I have a few pressing issues on my mind, but it's really nothing that I can't handle.  I'm just tired of "handling" whatever "it" is at the moment. My dad's birthday was on Monday.

I worked out three times this week (better than the zero amount from the previous week). I also started teaching two Adult High School English classes.  I adore my students, but man - did I forget how much work goes into prepping for classes. I'm lucky that the two classes are the same subject matter, but in the next term, I won't be so lucky.  Plus, this will the first time I've taught for this school. This means I will be evaluated. Source Also, the fact that I have to split my time between my regular job AND teaching means a cut in pay for the first month as associate faculty does not get paid in the first month.  It's a delayed payment, but it wasn't expected this month and I am very grateful that I have been saving money and being responsible.  I
