The Word B

so i more or less have a week off from beach work before i begin the new career as a high school engrish teacher. i am so excited about the change. although i know i will miss the beach office, the prospects of a mentally stimulating environment are too good to pass up. i am hoping to have more time to spend at the beach playing, after school gets out at 3pm.
so at the beginning of the week, i had this long list of activities and major house chores to accomplish. well, the weather has set me back on achieving the whole list and has thwarted my outdoor activities for the past two days. it is raining. not that i am complaining about it, i just find it ironic in the fact that when i do plan to do something outside of the house, it rains. oh well...
i am off again to the doctors this afternoon to get my results from blood tests and CT scans from over the past few weeks. i am feeling good and healthy from within myself, so i figure that i will get passing marks. if not, i will be very cranky. i am sick and tired of dealing with cancer. i want some time off from it.
i am tempted to get into some political rantings, but i will let it go for now. suffice it to say they are all morons.
the super bowl is to be played in a few days. as fate would have it, it will be during the hours of my first day at school. so i don't think i can call in sick in order to stay home, get drunk and watch the football game. too bad. i like getting drunk before 12 noon on a monday. the game is televised live here, and due to time and location differences kick off (after the pre-game hype) usually occurs around 11:30am. but i am usually well fueled up by 10:45am and ready to get into a nitrate missile with mustard about mid way through the first quarter. oh well, chalk up another missed super bowl, since having moved over seas.
family life is great. i am loving it. everyday is such a new and fascinating adventure, i look forward to every moment i can spend with scout. she is truly a wonder.
about the photos (hoping they post- seem to have many difficulties with blogger these days). one of scout looking all her best. the other is a family portrait out the front of our house. we were on our way to a pirate party. we all got dressed up and went to the fiesta. it was a lot of fun.
