suck suck bo buck banana fanna fo..

Yep, slacker reporting for duty. Katie my main problem these days is that they've blocked www.blogger.com at school. Plus I work much less at Berry and you know how my computer dial up is at home. Still that's no excuse. I'm wasting a few minutes in the part time office before I go teach my American History class at Floyd. I am still very pumped about your new job, still running smoothly? My head has been back up and running the past couple of weeks, paying for it, that will be a longer process. My class at GSU is good, damn I'm just so busy. Especially Mon-Wed I don't take a breath until 10 or so. I've got to get rid of this high school gig, it's really getting in the way. Speaking of h.s., I been a little stressed lately. There was a 14 yr. old in my World Geo class, quiet but so sweet. She had missed a lot of days so I started asking questions. Turns out both parents are in jail (drugs) and she was raising her 8 yr. old little sister and 10 yr. old little brother staying mostly at her step (we think) grandmother's trailer. Me and some of the other teachers put together quite a nice Christmas for them and she has become my project. Well she missed everyday last week and I knew something was wrong. I reported it, they made a home visit. Ayla wasn't there but the little girl was, skinny, under dressed, bags under her eyes, just pitiful. They went inside the trailer and said it was horrible, open cans of food lying around, dogs, cats, animal shit, and just shit in general. The grandmother was doped up on pills and not making sense. So I've been so worried about all three of them. We found out today, Ayla had gone to an aunt's house (that I don't think is much better) but they have yet to remove the two younger kids from the trailer. And Ayla's aunt is supposedly gaining temporary custody, the kicker is she will have to go to the h.s. in that district. I'm just crushed. I feel so helpless about it but don't know what to do. And I'm not ready to give up just yet. It's the closest I've ever thought about having kids, I'd take all three in a heartbeat if there wasn't so much legality involved. Anyway, keep your thoughts up that something will work out and I can stay in touch with her and Melissa and Phillip. Alright, class time.

you guys suck

What's the deal? I am the only dork using this thing. And today I've got some good news. Remember how I told you guys that I was trying to get another job? Well, I got it! I got the call tonight around 5...and even though I completely resigned with my boss, I have to go through the whole damn thing again! She told me to go home and think about it. Hello? What's there to think about? I just got a raise, a new place to work, and well, a whole new environment. THERE'S NOTHING TO THINK ABOUT. But I digress. There is a slight possibility they (my company) could kick me out of the office tomorrow. Strange how my business works, but nanny, nanny, boo boo - I got a new job!!!

I'm not sure if you can tell, but I'M REALLY EXCITED!
