I'd rather starve

Well I finally got a job last week. I went to one day of training and quickly said, 'no thank you'. It turned out to be a super shady company that loves money more than it loves things like integrity, honesty, dignity, and people.

But that's okay, because I got another job this week that is much better. I'll be working as a classroom aide at a school that solely serves special education kids. It should be challenging, but rewarding and fun too. I'm also still waiting to hear back from this middle school about a Detention Assistant position. I'd be monitoring In School Suspension kids and helping them with their homework. The big benefit of that position is that it pays very well. So we'll see. I'll be doing one of those jobs for sure. So I'm feeling better about things.

The play is a lot of fun. I get to do things like putting a nun into a compromising position, getting tackled by another nun, building a bomb, and frantically dancing like a crazy person. I also have a four page monologue that's one of the highlights of the show. I will, however, have to buzz my hair into a 1960's army cut very soon. I haven't had my hair that short since I was nine. So it should be interesting to see how that turns out.

I'm back to my pre-Texas diet. And it's about time. Meat is gross.

I'm getting ready to start reading 'Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close'. I can't wait.

Counting down the hours until I can see 'Where the Wild Things Are'.
