Sorry Folks

Unfortunately, until I get around to getting a paid journal (should be soon, the money situation is beginning to look a little better), I think you're going to suffer more than me. See, I'll probably make my posts quite long, and I won't be able to journal cut it all, and three posts is kinda ridiculous.

Anyway, onto the stuff . . .

With the improved money situation I was able to purchase two CDs today - the Chicago soundtrack and a Texas CD (Alan . . . !) I think I'm driving the housemates mad.

Why the improved money? Well I started back at dancing yesterday and had a sudden influx of students - very nice. Actually, only about three students were new to the school - the others were old ones who had gone and then came back. And I don't seem to have lost any students.

Dancing was good. I bought a new (but demo model, so cheap) CD player on Thursday night. Recorded the music onto tape about an hour before classes started and ad libbed my way through six hours of lessons. But it was fun - my students are really beginning to grow up, and I love seeing them again after a two month break. I realised, too, that this is my fifth year of teaching at my own school, my eighth year of teaching and my sixteenth year of being involved with dance.

Whilst at dancing, I channelled missmartin for a moment, shaking my fist at the dodgy Peachester phone reception.

Now I'm at home, waiting for funky Matt to ring, and deciding whether pigging out and writing, or pigging out and watching bad TV will be better. I can't stay up too late though - early morning tomorrow.

( Just a moment to get political and humerous . . . )

And onto less controversial matters . . .

( Bad Writing and why one wants to improve - or the zendom article I would write if it was longer, I had research time and I wasn't scared of some of the people on that list )

I took the test which told me which LJ users had interest most like mine. Topping the list was missmartin followed by therissole, singingweaver and tangochocky. wierdgurl30 came in a seventh with lizbee rounding out a ninth.

I'm going to go rearrange my interest soon, though, so change is iminent

Also, new icons coming.

Off to googlise my fic, should be fun.

Just found out that I should have voted in the Jeds and kept a closer eye on West Wing awards in general. While Googlising I found out that I was nominated for 26 Ways to Find Loneliness the CJ story I wrote that was booted from FF.net. It was also nominated in the Choice Awards.

I really should have stayed in the loop . . .
