I know. Two and-a-half weeks to go, and I haven't blogged anything of substance in... a while.
In wedding plans: In 19 days I will be a married woman. When I think about them, planning details are overwhelming. I'm trying to make To Do lists with manageable chunks. Up next: marriage license, confirm details with Gonzaga, figure out where to buy a garter, buy a garter. Aside from the list, I'm excited. Really excited.
School: I have to teach 10 more lessons, including finals. I'm excited to be done - that means that somehow I survived this crazy first year and maybe I can keep going. I do genuinely like my students (almost always), and I love it when they have that burst of understanding. It's a rush. I had to deal with cranky crazy mom again today - but she was Cranky, Crazy, and Downright Mean enough this time to just send it right on to the Powers That Be, who promised to take care of it. Their response warmed my heart ("She's given us this shit before. I'll take care of it.")
Other: How do you know if you're getting an ulcer? Just curious.
The irises are blooming outside my house. They are my very favorites, and I spent about 20 minutes this evening taking pictures after my run.
I love running in the spring - the earth is finally alive. It smells like something new every few steps. It's hot enough to sweat, but not enough to make me want to drink out of random sprinklers. The birds sing louder.
