Beginning of my favorite month

In the way that terribly awful, over-played song goes, "it's been a while" since I've written.

I'm a director of an elementary school's private before and after school program. I wake up before sun even bothers to fuckin wake up. I open up the theatre/multi-purpose area space at 6 a.m. Mainly I watch the chil'rens be chil'rens and supervise a staff of 4. The first, Shauna, is a naive, neurotic 18 year old. She think she knows everything yet she's republicany and sheltered. Also, you're not that hot. Deal with it. Then there's Jeremy, who is very laid-back and very Christian. Oxymoron, maybe? I once had to tell him not to preach to the children in the morning...ya know...separation of church and state. He seemed oblivious. He went to JMU in his early twenties but then dropped out. Whatever, JMU can be a bitch. Even though he's voting for McCain (lesser of two sketchballs?), he can play the acoustic guitar well. Beth, also goes to NRCC (New River Community College, ya'll) and also like Shauna, is a childcare major. (More power to them, I love kids but having to deal with their parents is a nightmare....) She definitely is not uptight like Shauna and let's me at least pretend to "play boss" (r-e-s-p-e-c-t?) . Finally, there's the new girl who'll only show up Thursday afternoons to replace my superior, Executive Director, Ellen Canode. This new person is definitely my favorite out of the bunch so far. Gasp!Could she be cool? Could there be hip employees of this protestant childcare establish other than me? Time shall tell...

Meanwhile, Anthony's lovely (j'adore) and is currently rubbing my tense shoulders. <3

I gave the children their first free drama class this Wednesday and the boys were absolutely incorrigible. Nevertheless, I was thankful to have boys in my class, the popular ones, so it wouldn't be an all girls class. Theatre is so effeminate this century when centuries ago it was the masculine thing to do...."hearing" a play and having a deul or something.

I am wired. Must be my conspicuous hobies + stress + work + economy sucks + stress + waking up at ass crack of dawn + screaming kids - $$ = me

Werd.

I love Villa Appalaccia "Beret" raspberry wine. Tastes so yummy.

(God, I love Anthony...)
