In other news, I left my suitcase on the train today. haha

Sometimes one small thing can put everything in perspective. So today at work I thought of the coolest joke. It goes something like this: what are the 21st and 18th letters of the alphabet? Answer: You Are! ahahhahaha. At the time it seemed really funny. Sometimes when really boring people tell you about their really boring job (like I a doing now) while using a really monotonous voice, things like my joke can seem really funny. Either that or I have the lamest sense of humor in the world. Either way, that's the kind of stuff I think of while I work.

In other news, Kate, those postcards were pretty good. http://postsecret.blogspot.com The sad thing is that they remind me of my life. Since I read them 24 hours ago I have had two different encounters that just made me want to write up a special postcard! The first one would say something like this:

Today I saw a crazy homeless man feeding the birds. He was having so much fun. I couldn't help but think how sad it was that this is probably the most fun he has had in weeks. It was the coolest thing I saw all day.

This one girl I teach will cry if I call on her. Now I just wait until I see her eyes tearing up and then I call on someone else. As soon as her eyes dry up, I call on her again. I do this the entire lesson - it makes me feel good about myself.
