gradgiation

...this eve our 8th graders gradgiated, and it was the nicest ceremony ever! i was able to fully enjoy each moment without worrying about stupid varying neurotic bothers such as what people were thinking of me (they weren't). the kids! their speeches, their happiness, their dreams, their trepidations, their nervousness, their smiliness, their lovely formal clothings with gorgeous dresses & gigantic heels & tennis shoes & ties & even a suit, their appreciation of teachers & especially corey (our boss): it was all just-right, heart-warming, kinda-moving, bigtime happy-making. i was mighty glad to be a part... then i came home, ate 10 lbs of cereal, & went on zoom to meet my sponsor. she was too tired to get together which was a good thing bc my makeup had melted & been eaten away along w the raisin bran. what had left the house looking like a somewhat-glamorous & together middle-aged woman now resembled bozo the clown... one more day of work! meantime, james might be embarking on a new career on the same day i end mine for the school year. my hopes for him are high! he is talented, gregarious, genuine (even when being a weirdo goofy manic ham). i believe in him! he can do whatever he puts his mind to. my man!... ok, goodnight for now :D
