I have had a pretty good week as a teacher and artist. The school that I teach at started a hybrid schedule so that half of the kids are there and half are virtual and it alternates every two days. I think we might make it past fall break on this schedule! *Stoked* So the bad news first? I am enjoying using this platform to vent frustrations of the world in general. I like to trail run. It is a less-than-popular past time. And I'm happily antisocial. So I run alone with my dog, and OH MY GOSH I am also a woman. Today, I crossed paths with two men three miles out on a trail, which is a normal experience. Upon returning to my car I saw them by theirs and they asked about the trail we were on. Then the older gentleman felt the need to tell me that it isn't safe for girls to run alone in the woods. WHAT* THE* FUDGE*. no shit. That is why I run with one earbud instead of two, and either have a knife or a small handgun on my waist. Guns, knives and rapists all make me uncomforable, I just choose to keep the first two in my company alone on the trails. I guess I should just stay in a basement somewhere so that I can be safe always... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. The good news? The principle at the school that I work at has commisioned me to make a painting for his office. Sweet! I told him that I would cut him a deal, and he said no! So that is good news too... Vote is progressing. And a really sweet moth from the run this morning. And a pawpaw from the trails last weekend. They kind of remind me of coconut when they are ripe.
