I do believe that the eye is looking better. I think the doc was right that there was some sort of infection up in there. It is feeling better and I am glad. Eye infections are so overrated. You should not get one.

Today was pretty normal. Got up, went to work, taught rowdy kids, went to faculty meeting, exercised, graded, came home, wrote more novel, watched some TV.

My life is pretty much the excitement of the world. If my life were a reality TV show it would probably have negative ratings.

A bunch of teachers at school have decided to start a new workout program. That makes me pretty excited. We are all going to work together to get more healthy. I need all the help I can get seeing that I cannot say no to Alice lately. I eat anything I want to. My pants tell me it is true.

Well, gotta go finish Chuck and get to bed at around ten. New goal!

I decided I will take a picture each day of me and my red eye. You can be the judge as to if the antibiotic drops are working. The doc thinks it is an infection even though there was no puss. If it doesn't get better by Wednesday, I am supposed to go to the eye doctor, which will cost lots of money. Good times!

I stayed home from school today and it went to fast. I went into work at about ten to seven and got stuff ready for the sub. Then I came home and slept for another hour. Then I exercised and watched TV. I then went to the doctor and paid $25 dollars for a thirty second visit. I love how health care works...NOT! I then filled my prescription and did laundry. Then I watched more TV and took a nap and then went to Janette's for dinner. She is nice to me most Mondays and lets me partake of her crock pot meal of the week. We then did some shopping and went to the library for something she needed for her class on Thursday. I then came home and wrote more of the novel and put some grades in. Now I am off to bed. Exciting day, eh?

This is how pick-up trucks should look. My friend's brother-in-law took us to a cave on saturday night. While we waited for people to come and meet us, he found some puddles to play in with the truck. I loved it and laughed the whole time. Laura didn't like it so much and kept yelling his name. It was hilarious. The cave was awesome, unfortunately, I could not get a good pic from inside but it was huge and a great place for people to go and grafittize. I actually participated by writing: "Live 100% ARK." That is my life theme these days.

Other than just visiting and eating we did not do a whole lot in Idaho Falls. I did enjoy spending time with my old roommates. The drive went fast because I had Kerri to talk to.

My eye is really red. I am having a sub tomorrow and going to the eye doctor to get it looked at. Good times. NOT SO MUCH. I don't think it is pink eye because there is no puss. I am grateful for that but it is still a pain, literally and scary. I guess we will see what it is tomorrow. Enjoy the pic of my eye! :) I am taking a break from the novel today. It stresses my eye a bit and I will have time tomorrow to write more! :) I guess there is a good part of that! I do have over 13,000 words now though! Go Me!

HI. It is way later than I should be awake. Seriously. I told myself all day that I would be in bed early. It didn't happen.

Basketball practice was today so I didn't get out of the school until almost six. I then came home and showered and ate and then headed to play pool with a friend. Then I came home and watched The Office with other friends. It was awesome by the way. LOVE THAT SHOW!!! Then, of course, I had to get my quota of words for the novel. So, I did it. Now it is after midnight and I really need to get to bed. Dang Alice!

Tomorrow, I will go to work and then one of my friends and I will be driving up to Idaho Falls for a weekend with my friend from Logan. We all used to be roommates. It will be a fun time.

Night!

I am tired and need to get to bed. Today was good. I like my life. My students are so good. How did I get to be so lucky this year?

I didn't do much else today besides work. I did watch The Office a bit while exercising. I then wrote. I don't think I can have a life and write this novel. Tomorrow will be a challenge because I have basketball practice then I have plans to play pool at 7pm and then watch The Office with a friend. Where will I get my exercise and novel writing in? Sometimes there has to be sacrifices. It was nice to exercise today. I haven't been feeling like doing it lately.

I also was able to catch up with a friend from college via Facebook Instant Messaging. Good times. Man, I feel old when I think about how long ago I was in college! Weird.

Well, off to bed. Night!
