just turned "dry the rain" up. must finish work in the next 6 minutes and 7 seconds to the tune of my top played song on my ipod (talk about manufacturing moments...)
my heart races from caffine, as if i am completing the last leg of a race. i grade ferociously.
pounding comments and numbers into the computer as if my life depends on the information reaching the security database before the building explodes in 4 minutes (my comments being the only thing preventing the end of mankind as we know it)
i forgot the feeling of wanting to rip off my clothes and run around the halls of the high school, akin to brandi champain (you know, ripping her shirt off at the world cup and the like)
there it is. vacation... commmences now... approximately 9 weeks of vacation unfurls like a huge amazing pool of placid water on a hot day, caramel latte on a rainy morning... you get the gist... where will my pool of placid water take me, aspiring professional traveller, you ask?
stop one: paris with brian. why not venture to the land where the cheapest things to eat are wine, cheese and bread?
stop two: italy with robyn and ron and then e. my trip to italy, one of my top five places to visit (along with paris) was postponed when i was hired at woodstock. a year belated and long overdue.stop three: south india with joe. the lonely planet ranks the beaches of kerala as the best place in the world to hang a hammock. i'm on it.

oh lord. i know it is not good to be envious...as so the bible says...but i can't help but covet your travels (and man servant).
commandments are for those with morals that need convincing.
read up on it while visiting the vatican, will you?
i'm trying to make you think about those statements, because i don't really know what i'm trying to say.
have fun!

danger= caffine + adrenaline of completing work multiplied by unreal confidence in myself as a freestyle walker.
holy hell! i want 9 weeks of winter vacation. i really want any semblance of the american system where the whole point of being a teacher is that you're actually off of work when the students are on vacation. no such luck in these parts.
i'm a little jelli myself...mostly because you have a passport that allows you to do all this.
enjoy it my friend!
love, ashlee
chastain. beth says it's brandi chastain.
just to clarify.
