Am I Still Awake?

[copied from dland]

Cannot believe how tired I am today. I think I slept, too, if memory serves. During my first sleeping stage -- when I fall asleep on the couch -- there was a really interesting show on Eleanor Roosevelt on PBS, but as previously mentioned, documentaries tend to put me right out, which is one the things I like about them, actually. But then I have to try to catch them another time, because I only heard half of the information.

I think if I were in college now, I would major in history instead of English. I'm just saying. I like history a lot.

Speaking of which, I did my opening presentations for that unit today in five classes, and it went really well. Even the class that the teacher warned me would be misbehaving was pretty good. I had two classes of juniors and three of sophomores; the sophomores were especially responsive. It was fun, actually, although probably why I'm so tired: on my feet all day and teaching the same full-period lesson five times. I was observed during the second one, which was also fine. I'm observed, you know, by an administrative assistant who was a gym teacher until two years ago. I wonder if he had any idea what I was talking about.

I made Shepherd's Pie tonight, which I hope K will be interested in eating when she gets home from work at 8.15. It wasn't too bad, and more importantly, easy to make, since the only thing I actually had to do was brown the meat and make the instant mashed potatoes. (And open a few cans.) I liked it anyway, and if she doesn't, I guess I'll have leftovers for days.

I'm going to go pick out something to wear tomorrow. And then I'm going to collapse somewhere. My legs really hurt tonight. I walked the building again this morning, but I don't think that's why; me feet hurt as soon as I woke up. This is fun, isn't it?
