One of Those Days

Today I thought I would blog a little about why I blog....if that makes sense. Sometimes I feel like I need an outlet for my feelings and, well, writing just seems to be that outlet. I feel when the feelings get put into writing they're expressed, validated, and redeemed. If I'm frustrated... I write...it keeps me sane! If I'm sad...I write....it helps me sort through the grief. And if I'm happy...I write....I like to share moments of joy.
Today is especially one of those days I feel like expressing my feelings. First off...I'm growing weary in my search for a teaching job. I've sent my resume to more school systems, childcare centers, and even tutoring centers than I can remember. And to simply put it; there are more teachers than teaching jobs. I've been to five interviews of which two of them actually stood me up! The last one to stand me up was on Sunday. I was supposed to meet this person named "Kizzy" at a Starbucks on the east side at 6pm....I live on the WEST side! I drove 40 minutes to wait at Starbucks for an hour only to have to drive back another 40 minutes still never having had the interview. Two day later "Kizzy" decided to bless me with an email explaining that she was there at 5pm but had two other interviews and she was sorry she missed me...she asked if I would like to set up another interview! I'm sorry...only swear words come to mind.
This leads me to my second reason for blogging today....I really dislike stupid adults...you know...those adults who act before thinking and live life in their own bubble, disregarding others needs. Adults like "Kizzy", with poor excuses for effecting others lives in negative ways, should all live on an island together so the rest of us can be productive here on the mainland. I'm sure we all know numerous adults who need to board the ship to that island. Oh well..."He who angers you conquers you"...so I'll let my frustrations roll off me like Teflon and refocus. Tomorrow is another day....even if it's not another dollar!
