Things went pretty well at school last week. We have a professional development day tomorrow, which should be interesting. It's the first time the staff from both campuses will be together since the first week of school. I'm looking forward to the presenter, and both a little anxious and excited to see the other staff.
This weekend has been good. Friday night we went to the Downer, which I enjoy but always does seem to be a little bit of a downer. There were a lot of people there from high school who I haven't seen in forever, which is good and also strange. For some reason it makes me feel as awkward as I was in high school. And I was just having an awkward day to begin with, partially because I didn't like what I was wearing. And none of the people who usually act as awkwardness buffers* were there.
*The awkwardness buffer theory is one I came up with on Friday.. These are people with whom I have a non awkward relationship, and who I know will be my friends later even if I act or look like a total dork, and who also are in with the "cool kids". Like Cy, Al, Evan, Kate, Estelle, Russ... Joe too, but he was working.
