Miscellaneous

I've been thinking a lot about the phrase "Life is good," and how lucky I am that I can say that almost all of the time. When I think about the lives that some of my students have, in school and out, it makes me grateful that that is true for me, because I know for some of them, it's not true, because of family situations, or their own issues they deal with. Just something I've been pondering.

On happier notes, work continues to go really well. I really like my job, which is a relief. Until this job, I was thinking that perhaps I didn't actually want to be a teacher, that I had just been sucked into a field and now there was no way out unless I started something over from scratch (which sucks). Now...huge sigh of relief.

And on the wedding front...things are moving forward! I have invitations in hand (my good old pal Jason is awesome), we met with our pianist/organist this week and nailed down music for the ceremony (which includes some awesome non-traditional selections that I'm thrilled about!), and having these little pieces put together really makes things move along. I've talked to some friends who have started booking plane tickets and hotel reservations, etc, and it's all coming together! I'm so excited to see everyone in January.

And now, sleep like a coma.
