Sick day!

Today I called in sick to work. Yes, I feel a little guilty, since I'm not actually sick. But I feel that I had good reasons. First of all, I hardly got any sleep last night. I had lots of trouble sleeping, and I ended up getting up around 4 a.m. to play on the internet. I ended up talking to Dave for a while, and got an email from Chuck with the dates he'll be on leave. Well, I was so excited about Chuck that I immediately started looking for tickets to a Cubs game and planning other things we will do together. When I finally tried to go back to bed around 5, I was too excited to sleep. So I only got a few hours of sleep total, and I knew that dealing with my first graders would not be a good idea if I was tired and grumpy. The second reason I felt justified calling in to work is that I really need to work on finding a job for next year. That is my biggest source of anxiety right now, and I need to get it resolved. It's so hard because most of the suburbs are doi

Why am I doing this?

Okay, I admit the only reason I'm doing this is so I can post on my friend Dave's blog . I'm not sure why anyone would really want to know about my life. But I'll try it anyway, cuz maybe it will just be fun. So last night I went to see Moulin Rouge with one of my favorite people, Sarah. We were so excited and thought it'd be hard to get tickets, since it was just a one-time show. But there were only like, 20 people there. The fun thing is that there are people who are trying to make Moulin Rouge like Rocky Horror Picture Show. So we got to sing along, and this girl was trying really hard to get people to act along with the movie too, but most people really weren't interested. It will be playing again at Piper's Alley on June 10, so everyone go and support it! It might be an actual production by then.
