1. Sat down with Vice Principal Murphy to discuss my stalker. I was convinced, initially, that all I needed to do was make my boss aware that I was aware of the issue. As I told her what was going on, it became clear to me that things were much, much worse than I'd realized. Suffice it to say that I do not desire to play ANY all ages shows.
2. Made a friend cry. More on that when I have distance and perspective.
3. Napped for far too long.
4. Been chewed out by our activities coordinator.
5. Forgotten to purchase tickets to a show for a friend.
6. Lost a FULL PILE of student essays that I needed to grade tonight.
This is a hell of a list, I know. But here's the thing: I. Am. Okay. With. It.
I heard a sermon on Tuesday that reminded me, vis-a-vis the story of Exodus, to place God in the center of everything, much in the same way as the Temple sat at the center of Jewish life, both physically and spiritually. There is a freedom that comes with this. On days like this I get to throw my hands in the air and say "Okay God... Where are we going with this one?"
And it is so wonderful to say "we."
