I never write this blog with the idea that anyone actually is listening but my computer. But I suppose that's how cyberspace works. You put it out there and it's there. This blog is that silent listener for me. It's my horrendously underpaid psychiatrist.

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes!

Here is a song I heard on my drive in to work today. Forgot how much I love it. The song is originally by Nick Drake (a wonderful artist who left us far too soon) and it has been remixed by the Books with Jose Gonzalez on a CD produced by The National. What an amazing collaboration between 4 excellent artists I all adore.

Listen to Cello Song


Much has happened in this past week:


  • I've wrapped up my first year teaching as a full time Drama teacher 
  • I have purchased a condo all by myself
  • I've started the moving process in my classroom
  • I've started the moving process in my home
  • I'm going to be performing in this year's bike play, Bike Odyssey
  • I'm getting ready to start rehearsing Romeo and Juliet
I'm pretty proud of myself for really taking charge of my own life this year. I feel that now, I can look back at some point much later on in my life and say that I truly took some time to do things for myself, that I am certainly capable of being alone and taking care of myself, and that I didn't let anything hold me back from doing the things I wanted to do. 

In a year where I have spent  lot of time celebrating other people getting married, having babies, graduating, starting careers, etc. I just wanted to take a moment to look at my own life with pride. I have a lot in my own life to be proud of right now as well.

The first place I've ever owned
