I've decided this whole being a grownup thing is entirely overrated.

I had to buy a car last week. I like my new car - she's shiny, orange, automatic, and a Honda Fit.

But I'm working a lot and my house is a mess and I need a break. I think I'll feel better when I can focus my energies all in one place.

I'm teaching at UC Davis in their English Intensive Program. It's a multi-lingual program, and I'm mostly having fun with it. I've got some great students and I'm learning my way through the curriculum and most of them are doing very well and really improving. I think I may have to do a rehash on classroom policies on Tuesday, though.

Anyway - life is crazy. I start teaching at the community college in a few weeks, so for about three weeks, I will be absolutely miserable. Which, for anyone who knows me, means I'm actually going to be reveling in it.
