I.T. to Teacher

It's been a while since I posted and I'm sure you all spent your Christmas vacations checking this blog every day (several times a day, even) waiting breathlessly for word of the sub application process. Ok, back in the real world I probably saw most of my readers over the vacation so you know what's going on.

Yesterday, I turned in the last of my paperwork to become a sub and today I got fingerprinted. I should be put on the list Monday so I may start working next week. That's all that's been going on with the application process.

You may have been wondering how unemployment has been treating me when I'm not filling out paperwork or watching DTV Award winning videos. As the title of this entry implies, I'm ready to get back to work. No, I don't watch Desperate Housewives so I may be satirizing the title erroneously; go with it. At first being at home was cool. I could get stuff done that I didn't have time to get done before. I could go running during the day (nope, still too cold). I could do housework (nope, not any better about it now than I was before). I could run errands (this I actually do). I could play video games (got that covered). So, I'm not as good at being a househusband as I thought I would be. Being a kept man was nice for a while until it turned out to be kind of limiting trying not to spend money.

Next I'm going to have to get used to getting up early again. It's been hard waking up in the morning when there's really no reason for me to be awake. Hopefully, I'll have a reason to get up next week.
