1Day -- I didn't know you were a teach! Great. I definitely use the teaching aids. One or two per class. That's why I'm not doing any planning. It's all right there for the pickin.' I dunno. Maybe there's a point at which one has mastered the material and shouldn't have to worry about writing out scripts. One of my friends thinks this all means that I've graduated to being a more relaxed, professional teacher.

Oh, but about the denial stuff: <font color="green">Yoo hoo! Wants2Fly, you there, sweetie?

Have you given any thought recently to GETTING A JOB!</font>

Given that my pay is more like an allowance than a salary -- and money is flying out the door to make this place liveable -- What I SHOULD be doing is LOOKING FOR WORK!

And this little itty bitty concern is so far from my thoughts that I actually forgot about it.

I usually spend unemployment in nail-biting terror or dark depression -- as I did for most of the summer. I guess my itty bitty paycheck makes a psychological difference.

Or lese I'm feelin way toooooo good on the Effexor.
