Grin and Blog It

I never blog anything that I actually want to write for reasons I don't know. Its hard to sack up the nerve to type when you're distracted by the basketball team that I coach and its inability to win a game. I gave up youtube and similar web based procrastinations for lent so I've been avoiding my computer more lately. But its also hard to really be self introspective since I've been seeing a therapist as part of "operation additional-bipolar-medication freedom." I kind of don't need a therapist, I think if I told a friend to listen to me explain my life and blame my issues on my parents spanking me I could do something else with my mondays at 8:15. And teaching is starting to get hard. Its weird seeing people drop out, go back to college, go to the suburbs, (like the northern new jersey suburbs for example), or leave teaching altogether. Its not weird when kids show up pregnant, or are clearly high, or worse, its not weird when kids are clearly smart and unchallenged because of the exploits of the kids who are acting like morons. But I got to write something. things get pretty sparse around this time of the year, as it did last year as well. But I do need to get going, like I need to start writing workouts for my next coaching adventure. Middle school Track.
