The little meme I posted earlier has kept me busy all day. I can’t let you all see the mess I call my home, so I’ve been doing quite a bit of cleaning as well as clicking away with the pictures. I also got a hair cut, but didn’t get it styled so I don’t really know if I like it or not.
I really need to figure out a good place to go for haircuts. This whole “go to the cheap walk-in place” is just not working for me. Today I could have swore I was back in Sweden, only in Sweden I would have actually understood the language. There were several languages being spoken, none of which were familiar to me. The woman who cut my hair actually spent a lot of time on it, which was good. But it was also bad. She smelled. Oh Lord how she smelled. I could barely keep from gagging. I don’t know where she was from, but I know it was an Asian country. Maybe it’s Vietnam? I don’t know. Most Asian people smell just fine, but every once in a great while I will run across one who smells very strongly of a particular kind of spice. I think this has happened all of four times in my entire life, but the scent is so strong that I have vivid memories of each encounter. I have no idea what the spice is, I just know it’s a really strong scent that makes me feel really sick. I was really glad to get out of the chair so I could get some fresh air!
Tomorrow I’m teaching reading at the school I had the bad experience in. I am hoping and praying that I will not be teaching the team that I was working with on Monday. At that particular school each student is on a team and they have a set group of teachers for everyone on the team. There are 10 teams all together, so I guess I have a 1 in 10 chance of having horrible luck. I will be much more comfortable in a classroom than a big, loud gym where the kids have to be up and moving so it will be ok even if I am. I just don’t want to deal with a couple of the students again.
Perhaps I should go to bed now instead of watching Wife Swap. I don’t normally watch reality shows at all, but there’s something strangly facscinating about this one.
