I'm Spoda be Working

My to do list is far, FAR longer than I should've allowed it to grow. We're so far behind on housekeeping I'm actually embarrassed to have anyone over, which sucks because I realy LIKE having people over (in an odd way, it forces me to clean).

I finished the Lakeville beginner class tonight, and am both sad and relieved. Relieved because with the HOA crap going on right now I'm a little overwhelmed...sad because it turns out I really like teaching. I had some excellent compliments tonight: most of the class wants to know if I'm teaching in January, and two of the girls asked if I teach outside of community ed. Wow...it's just downright weird to think of the possibility.

And as the course of the evening wore on (after some pretty gross Long John Silver's, typing up the recent board meetings' notes, etc etc) I was offered the opportunity to teach BOTH Lakeville classes in January. So the vote of confidence in my teaching ability isn't just from my students: it's also from my teacher, under whose professional school I'm doing these classes...so it's a warm fuzzy to know that she thinks I'm good enough to teach under her name.

Plus, teaching bellydance is about the most fun part time job I've ever had...beats working in a bookstore by miles. However, the danger is that now it's 11:30pm, I should've been in bed at least an hour ago, and I'm wide awake after getting pumped up in class. and am I working on NaNoWriMo?

No. Posting here instead. NaNo in the morning though, and most of this weekend (outside of giving the two stinky furballs baths...but I don't have to do that alone. I've extracted promises of help from the hubs).
