Dearest Confusia,
Today I gave the students a task that doesn't involve me holding their hands (or even talking to/acknowledging them) so I figured I'd take this moment to log in and see if you'd be on yet. Which you have, so...
Last night was Back to School Night here. It was awesome. My school day started at 8:40 in the morning and ended at 8:15 in the evening. I love working 12 hour days. I especially love working them as a salaried employee who doesn't get any overtime. It's neat. The other neat things about school this year is that instead of starting at 8:30, like last year, it starts at 9:15. Sounds good, right? Well, it's not. In fact, most mornings we get to have meetings (instead of having them after school and being here until midnight) starting at the ass crack of dawn. It's super. So far, I'm loving it. I suppose the only thing keeping me going is Labor Day. It just scares me thinking about the stretch from Labor Day until Thanksgiving. I feel some mental health days in my future.
Ugh! The natives are getting restless.
Love ya,
Terps

Confusia Checking In
Dear Terps,
Well, another school year has begun, and I'm already looking forward to the last day of school! ha ha My feet hurt so bad from yesterday that I wish I could unscrew them and hang them in my closet until they feel better.
As for summertime updates...
Tubes cut and burned last Monday. I have been sterile for a week now, and it feels SUPER! No more worrying about any reproductive superpowers! The surgery went very well, and was one of my favorite days of the summer. There I was, completely drugged up and lying in bed all day. AWESOME! I'm not saying I'd want to do that every day, but as my step-brother said, it was a nice chemical vacation. As you know from the txt I sent you while under the influence,(tb burn ctt, mmo nop jjids mmow) I was very relaxed.
Also, my divorce will be final in two days!!! I will be single again, legally, and free of Mr. Confusia's sh++ forever! YAY. Don't worry, I'll have a margarita for you, too!
I have been accepted into Texas Woman's U, and will once again be working on my degree, which I will finish in no more than three years, though possibly in two if I work fantastically hard.
Still seeing my friend, who is a complete delight. I think it's been about 8 months now. He's amazing, and wonderful, and I adore him. I have such fun with him. :)
So that's about it for me. All good news for a change. Well, there is one bad thing, and I don't know if I can cope. List of the Day is blocked now, and I can't get to it. I'm telling you, the Man is cruel!!! So, if Cary ever checks in here, I hope he knows that I will fix my dilemna as soon as possible.
How is your year going so far? I hope it's awesome! Plus, I need you to start having man troubles again...(think tattoo guy, heart in a box guy, etc.) ha ha Reading your hilarious takes on it all makes the day better. :) Though, I still hold out some kind of strange hope for you and that guy in California, and you know who I mean. That was quite a match!
Love you, Confusia

Confusia Seen With Goofy Smile On Face
Dear Terps,
Isn't it strange that even in the midst of a personal struggle in life, there can be elements that are completely wonderful? I am amazed that at a time when I could be feeling really down, there are moments when I am indeed very grateful to be alive, and even happy. Life can be mysterious. That's not to say that I'm jumping up and down every minute of the day. I'm not. Today, though, I just keep smiling. :) :) :)
Love, Confusia

And Time Stood Still
Dear Confusia,
I can't figure out which is worse, that this is only Wednesday (and Monday was a holiday) or that it's only 9:45. Either way, time is DRAGGING. I guess I should be happy that there are only 6 days of school left (5 if we don't count today), but when the clock seems to be stuck, it doesn't really matter, right?
Actually, if I think about everything I have to accomplish between now and next Wednesday, I might start to cry. We have the following to get through: college research presentations, diversity workshops, Shakespearean dress rehearsals and performances, mythology projects, film viewing of Speak, talent show, Fiest Texas field trip, kayaking field trip, year book signing, teachers vs. students dodgeball tournament, advisory kickball tournament, curriculum binders for ALL THREE PREPS! ARGH!!!!!
How is it going over there?
Love, Terps
Dear Terps,
Remind me never to work there. Why have they packed so much into so few days? They couldn't have spread it out a little? That doesn't make much sense.
Nothing much happening here. Several months ago I sent all the paperwork off to the divorce attorney, but I still hadn't heard back from him. I'm tired of waiting on him, so I just finished all the paperwork myself and am filing all on my own! That's how you get a free divorce! Good thinking, huh? So all I have to do now is turn that stuff in downtown (tomorrow! bright and early!!!!) , and wait 61 days or less, and then I will no longer be a separatee...I will be a divorcee. Couldn't happen too soon. Shall we plan a party, perhaps? A little karaoke madness? Actually, I don't care if I'm the only one there, and the party involves me relaxing on the couch with a good book, it will still be considered a party! ha ha
So as far as Rachel's wedding goes...Do you think it would be in bad taste to get her a divorce gift certificate? Honestly, I can give her my card with one free divorce included because I'm practically an expert now. I think it would be a very practical gift. If she doesn't need it, that's great, but she'll have the protection of knowing it's there. ha ha
No, no, no. I'm kidding. Despite it all, I still think marriage can be a really wonderful thing, but you just have to be really careful about who you do it with...ha ha
Love, Confusia
Dear Confusia,
Why have they packed so much in the last week? Well, that's probably because we've been preparing for TAKS and finals up until now. We haven't had any free time. When you have kids taking 5 different TAKS tests and no teachers want to give up a second of class time because of that, you find yourself with a shit ton of activities to do in the last week of school. Oh, when I was giving my list of everything that has to be done, I forgot to mention the cotillion this weekend. Oh goodie!
So, as for your divorce, congratulations! I remember mine well. I remember it was scheduled at 9:00 (first thing on the court docket). I left from there to go get him off my insurance at work. I then went to get a new social security card without THAT last name on it. And I rounded out the day by getting a new driver's license. It was the best day of my life! I'm all for a party, but would need to know when and where and hope that I can be around for it!
Oh God! They're back...
Love, Terps
