We missed the spring "game" last weekend. In the morning on Saturday, we both supervised the ACT test at Kennedy. We got paid 95 bucks for 4 hours of work, most of the time just sitting in the room while the kids took the test. Not bad. Then we left straight from school to go to our nephew's first birthday party. 3 hours roundtrip to watch a kid try to eat some cake and open some presents. Not exactly worthwhile, but good in the eyes of the family. It's good karma for when our little one has birthdays.
I bought Volver on DVD. I saw the movie last summer in the theater in Madrid. Amazing film. Too bad I haven't been able to watch the DVD, since I have loaned it out to people. No worries, though, I 'll get to watch it eventually.
Prom is coming. I am one of the two teachers in charge of organizing and planning with the senior class officers. This currently means that I have to arrive to work early to sit in the front foyer and sell tickets. So far things are going smoothly, but there are still about two weeks to go until the big day.
I have purchased my plane ticket for this summer. I leave for Madrid on June 12 and get back on August 7, hopefully with my masters degree in hand. My wife is thrilled, as you can imagine. This also means that we are trying to rearrange the apartment and get everything ready for the little one before I leave--in less than two months.
