Y5 D90

Oh thank the heavens it's Friday. As cliche as that might sound, I don't care. I am happy for this week to be over. I have another packed week next week of training, but at least I get some small break tomorrow. I do have to be up at 5 tomorrow for a rehearsal but at least the rest of the day will be mine. Today is part two of the class started yesterday. My group is small, five students, and boring as hell. All Indian with names I can't pronounce. They ask no questions, don't laugh at my jokes, and are otherwise annoying. The upside? We are making it through the material much faster than we would normally. I may be able to call this a 3/4 day today. THAT would be nice.

After class we went to the store to get groceries. Fucking groceries. Can't you people just starve? Greedy bastards wanting to eat. B and I got into it a little bit because she still needs a job and she had hoped I would have been able to help her find one by now through my contacts. Not my fault no one is lending a hand. We are going to work together on this situation next week.

Speaking of next week, we also learned that the kid is leaving on Sunday for Burning Man and won't be back until Monday of the following week. An entire week to ourselves. Oh thank goodness. One the food I just bought will last longer, and two we will have some space. It's going to be nice. AND I didn't even realize it, but next Monday is a holiday. Things look good for the next few days. I probably just jinxed it, but fuck it.

Played DI and went to bed. B stayed up playing Sims while I slept. She is starting to feel homesick and one of her friends back there is having some issues with which she wishes she could help out. If I had the $500 I would send her back in a heartbeat, but it's not to be.

It's weird sometimes having her here. She is so 'traditional' in some ways - her love of her family, her ideas of a household, etc - I am more used to the independent free thinkers of my area. It's a bit of a culture shock sometimes. Especially the empathy part since I have none. Fine, I have some, but not that much.

Is today over yet?
