I've had a Twitter for months, mainly so I can follow my soon-to-be-husband, @johncmayer (that is, as soon as he realized that I exist), but I've decided to step it up a notch. Today, I went from following 70 people to more like 175... the likes of which are my classmates and former teachers. That's right: blog AND Twitter. I am fully multimedia these days. And, thanks to me, so is Erica.
The teachers have some sort of in-service today, so instead of being Coach Reese all day I have been going from classroom to classroom every two hours. Hour 2 of my 2nd block was Parsons' planning period; hour 1 of my 3rd block is Embry's planning period (hence here I am in Blogville). I have partaken in the Pizza Hut lunch buffet (note: never ever allow me near anything that is "All You Can Eat"), and now I would like to nap... and punish myself for the carb binge.
On top of my lunch splurge, I must try on my altered bridesmaid dress this afternoon. Ladies and gents, this will not be pretty. And, for the first time since the days of sorority formals, I will be pulling out the Spanx. And I'm not ashamed to say it. But between now and Hailey's nuptials, it's time to get it in gear... because Spanx can only do so much damage control. Not to mention June wedding + spandex undergarments: no thank you.
On the spiritual front, I'm trying something new. Mornings are hardest for me, especially when I don't have a sub gig. I lack any motivation, and I find myself watching TLC in my bed at 2 pm. Yes, it really is as depressing as it sounds. So I've been doing a little Bible search on mornings, and as it turns out, there's a lot to be said about the beginning of each day. So my challenge to myself is to start everyday with a quiet time. In truth, I try to have a quiet time every day, but lots of times I have a hard time squeezing it in between Gilmore Girls, House, and homework (you read that right). I'm going to start kick-starting my days with a few Psalms; you would not believe the kind of inspiration that's waiting for you in that popular book of the Bible.
His mercies are new each morning.
Lamentations 3:23
Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.
Psalm 143:8
