hi all. things are well here. we're going over conversion factors in class and (fingers crossed) i'm heading to nyc tomorrow after class.

i just got an earful in the teacher's lounge about the teacher union, so i do find my interests at school after all, even if chemistry isn't one of them. just kidding. it is interesting to me, and i really don't even mind the teaching. not always the hugest fan of labs, but they go pretty quick.

i'm actually going out tonight with a friend that's in town! i think we're going to have dinner. it's very exciting for me to break my shell and get out of the house. thank god, because at times it feels more and more like a prison. but now that i know i have an apartment starting october 1st that i've put a deposit on (i sent it out yesterday bern), i think i can manage for another 2 weeks.

that's all for me. things are good but tame. they're definitely not scandalous, and maybe not even weird! how sad. oh, but one last thing. i watched west wing last night, the one where john goodman takes over, and i'll tell you what, it was just as good the second time around. can't wait 'til next wednesday.

love, j
