an update

my foot: my orthopedic said that the radiology report came back and said my foot was not fractured. but, after him squeezing the hell out of it, he said there still might be a small crack. and, i'm sure that if there wasn't, there surely was after his vise-like hands attacked my bruised and swollen foot. i'm now without crutches (yay!) and hobbling around quite nicely. i have attempted, regardless of dr. orders, shuffling around sans boot only to realize that my foot no longer pulls upward. i definitely feel like a child learning how to walk again. i think i might need physical therapy. others around me think i'm just being dramatic (moi?!)

the job situation: i have accepted a job as a flight attendant at a major airline. i'm very excited about this new change in my course of career. i, undoubtedly, will miss many aspects of teaching; however, i am excited at the opportunities that this new job will provide me. (oh, how i get a chill of excitement when using conjunctive adverbs!) although my training will not be for a few more months, i look forward with anticipation to the day my wings are pinned on my shirt. until then, i will continue to surf the 'net, visit friends, catch up on some summer reading, and enjoy my weekends off (for you see, this will be a rarity for the next few years!).
