DAY ONE FIFTY ONE
E. Perryman
11.27.19
630AM-Gotta pee. Wait. It’s already 6:30? Nooooooo. So sleepy.
730AM-Feeling that familiar late november hit by a bus feeling as I leave for school.
830-It’s really special to teach at an elementary school on your birthday. Feeling fortunate to get so many sweet birthday greetings and serenades.
850AM-Random thought. I don’t get in to Phoenix until 1230 mountain time tonight. Holy long day, Batman.
9AM-Ok, chorus made me work for it but they sang well; we are in decent shape for our winter concert. Hopefully I won’t have concert anxiety dreams this weekend.
930 AM-Um. I gave the wrong routing number to my school for my new checking account. I won’t get my paycheck now for a week after rent is due. Shit.
10AM-Wow, payroll is really nice. They are going to cut me a one time hard copy check.
1130AM-That sponge bob pillow from Ashley Abigail sure would make a nice little nap pillow.
12PM-Sarku chicken teriyaki is a le tasty meal on my birth date.
1230-Demonstrating the turkey tango has increased my steps by quite a clip this week.
1PM-Crap. The kid who was doing so well is crying cuz he got 2nd in the rhythm game.
140PM-Duty is done! Bye Felicia!
2PM-Just got off a trying phone call. Trying to help adults with decisions is very challenging. Kids are much more open.
3PM-Humid. Sweating. Seem to be running in circles. Much to do before we fly. I hope I don’t forget anything.
4PM-Stomach chakra ain’t happy right now. Time to tune out and veg. Very grateful for wife who will drive to airport.
830PM-Not sure why but we hit a sweet spot at the philly airport. Coasted thru security, mellow energy, enjoyed saladworks, sitting on a half empty plane.
9:00PM-On my way to coach, I passed a guy in first class close to my age with a Karate Kid Cobra Kai haircut. He was dressed in a well preserved 1987 half turtle neck sweater, light blue faded wide leg jeans, and brown loafers. Wow.
9:10PM-Admittedly, it wasn’t like Vegas last year. Alas, not a banner day on my 51st but glad to be above ground living with love and opportunities. Here’s to another year of minimizing my ass hattery.
