Saturday night
It's 9pm on a Saturday night and I am at work. To be more specific, I am sitting in my office during the 3rd quarter of a basketball game while the pep band is hanging out in the band room enjoying their free time. My head is absolutely pounding with a sick headache. I spent last night here at work till 10pm. I guess it beats sitting at home, since I have ZERO social life! Maybe I am too busy or too old for a social life. At what point does one become too old? When suddenly did going out and having FUN take a back burner to everything else in life? I can't pinpoint the date, it must have been happening gradually throughout the years. Time to STOP the madness! What's the point of life without some rip-roaring fun every once in a while? I need to suggest this to Kevin, force him to make a date. We both need this desparately.
My schedule isn't going to get any easier. Next weekend is solo and ensemble contest, plus there is a basketball game every weekend through the end of February. Taylor goes to Kentucky in 2 weeks, and then it will be weekly drives to Kentucky to ride and learn. Plus the school musical starts soon, anbd that means a lot of nights directing pit orchestra. On top of that is junior high solo and esnemble to prepare for on April 1st, and starting a new 5th grade band class next week. It can be disheartening to see all this work ahead of me, but I really like it. I really do like this job...just wish I din't have to wake up so darn early in the mornings!
