So, it's been awhile.... sorry about that. Between Hawaii and then going home, going to DC, and the madhouse that will be the last 8 weeks of the semester. I'm coming up for air briefly to think. It's 78 degrees in March, and it's weirding me out besides being WONDERFUL. I want to sit outside and read a good book and collect a "real tan" instead of the oompa loompa shade my boss makes fun of me for if I go "fake bake" too much. All this travel has given me a taste of what a non-reslife life could look like. I want what a coworker of mine calls a "big kid" job. I've applied, I'm waiting. I don't even know if I want to work anymore either, yup, that's how disenfranchised I'm feeling these days about what I do. I love my students, the day to day is good, like I don't dread going in in the morning or anything, but when I look ahead, I get depressed, because I don't want to be doing this AGAIN starting next fall...
Life changed quickly when I found out I had a brain tumor on January 14th, 2011, and that that tumor was cancer on the 27th. This is the documentation of my life since cancer, the ups, downs, and in-betweens, and most importantly, finding One Less Thing To Worry About... every step, every day.
