Today is my only day off out of a three day weekend. The production of West Side Story at the high school has been time consuming, to say the least. On weekdays I'm leaving the house at 7:30 am and returning after 6 pm. Yesterday was a six hour rehearsal, and tomorrow's is expected to last as long.
I don't necessarily mind the time commitment, but being at school all day and part of the night is keeping me from fully moving into my apartment and from properly preparing for my classes. I think everyone involved at the district understanding the position I've been put in by coming in at this stressful time, but I'm still concerned with doing a good job and making a strong impression. Also I have impossibly high standards for myself.
Now for some good news!
The apartment is fantastic and my bed is probably the most comfortable bed I've ever had. I received my couch, dresser, and night table yesterday, and I'll (hopefully) be getting my dining set some time today. My car arrives from New York tomorrow with more of my stuff in it. And I've still found the time to cook most days, some highlights include a tomato, mushroom, and onion omelette this morning and rigatoni with sauce and sausage, garlic, and Romano cheese.
Things really are great here so far, just intense because of the time of year I came out. But hopefully by February things will settle down a bit.
