Anybody Home?

The following posts are based on actual events, however, some names and places have been changed to protect the innocent--and in some cases the guilty!

The following 4 entries were originally written over 2 years ago in the form of emails to an ex-boyfriend.  It was, in a way, the catalyst for my creating this blog.  The fact that I sent it to an ex that I hadn't seen in years, speaks volumes as to how far removed I was before my recent life 'transformation'...

Hola!

I just wanted to  check the address out.  Hope all is well on the football front.  May your season be long and rewarding.  I meant to ask you about your mom and her health.  I hope she is doing well with her treatment. 

I hope you don't mind, but I intend to keep in touch with an email or 2 per week.  If I begin to annoy you, just tell me to f*** off--I can handle it, I've watched every episode of "Hell's Kitchen".  I've entitled my first chapter, "Anybody Home?".  It speaks to my need for social interactions with people my own age--just hang tough and humor me by listening to my mindless rants--you know, like as if we were married.

I'm desperate for peer interactions!!!!   I love my mother to death, but I can't talk to her as a girlfriend (she's too naive);  My BFF is extremely busy saving the working class;  My cousin is busy with her mentee (she's mentoring a H.S. 'otherwise' delinquent girl); my sisters are not close enough in age to appreciate my wisdom... (nor my sarcasm...) and my brother is busy with his shop.  My sister in law is just plain old GOP--nuff said there;  2 of my co-kinder teachers have changed grade-levels, so they are busy with 2nd & 3rd grade things; My co-Grade Level Chair is busy with her kids and Joe (the other remaining Kinder team member) lives out of town and has a wife who is in and out of the hospital.  Of the 2 new kinder team members, 1 drives me absolutely batty because she has a twin who looks, dresses, talks, etc. like her and they're both nosey chatterboxes!  And the other new K teacher is newly divorced and looking for a place that she and I can rent as a bachelorette and party pad for the "fun" teachers at our site.  I'm so alone and isolated in my Kinder classroom!  The only sane person in my life right now is the custodian, and he leaves at 3pm!  Damn, I miss writing, (I feel better already).

Anyway, I guess thems the breaks...  talk to you soon : )
