In Other News...

Ok, I figured a more upbeat post was in order. But before that, thanks to Wife and Ben for the hugs:) You guys rock.

Because I don't have enough to do, I agreed to do a feature on Gatsby's American Dream for Revolt. I'll get to do an interview with them which should be cool and I probably shouldn't have agreed to do it, but features are such fun...



In other music news, rumors are flying about over MCR's third album, The Black Parade. It looks like Gerard and crew have changed their look quite a bit but the bootlegs I've heard of some of the new stuff is very cool. I can't wait to hear the new album! I'm insanely jealous of the folks in London that got to see them perform last week and got a sneak-peek of their new material. Here are a few photos of the new MCR (humor me). Caaaannn't waaaaiiit for the new albummmm... aargh.

And the first day of school?? It went quite well. I have at least one group of boys that amused me immensely. I think they'll be a handful, but they were pretty damn funny, so we'll see. I did already have one girl complaining about an assignment I gave them (which couldn't have been easier) and, of course, I'm blessed with her twice a day. Oh well. It's her grade, not mine. It's amazing how wiped out I am after only a half-day, but I guess that can be attributed to everything being so new. I like it so far, I hope the rest of the week goes well!

Oh yeah, and just to make sure I don't become too boring or conventional, I'm getting another tattoo on Friday (hee hee!) Still won't be visible with regular clothing, but I'll know it's there and I won't feel like I've sold out becoming a Catholic school teacher (or something like that). Wife is coming with to see how this whole process works, so that will be fun (well, fun for me, I don't know how fun for her:) I'm glad she's coming though!)

Righty-o. Better go to bed so I can keep up with all my students tomorrow!
