Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S HERE!

I leave Wed. and tomorrow is my last day at school. Just did my last book review and am emptying my locker. I'm tired as hell but can't sleep.

I had a really nice and full last weekend. I had a nice morning with Albena, my friend and teaching partner and by far the most responsible individual and teacher I've had the pleasure to work with, and we had coffee out in a cafe, met our students while they were writing the first certificate test and bought the groceries for the party meal.

I was on my feet aaaaaaaall day Saturday so when people started coming over at 8 I was ready for bed, but we had a nice night sitting out eating, drinking and telling jokes. There was a lot of loud laughter and I am sure my psycho neighbors would have hated it, but to hell with Stalin! It's payback time. I think I might just spray all the electric outlets in the garden with honey so he cant use them any more. That might finally stop him playing his obnoxious radio at 8 am on weekends JUST outside my window!

As for my colleagues: they spoiled me again with gifts.

Sunday morning I had to go back to Avas moms to get my filling re-done which I pulled out by flossing too vigerously.

At 1:00pm, I met the students at EGO, my favorite restaurant by far in Turnovo, and we had a goodbye lunch for both Albena and me since she will be on maternity leave next year. We had a ball and exchanged gag gifts which made us all laugh. I got a whoppee cushion and it broke the second time it got used. Oh well! I got one really good rip out of it.

Then Sunday afternoon I came back to my place with Ava, got all my plants, and some kitchen things and went to her house by car, delivered it all to her mom and watched a really great film called "White Noise" and had leftover taskebab from the party.

It was a great last weekend and it was spent will all my favorite people I met in Bulgaria. I already want to go back for a visit as Ia m now sitting in my moms bedroom typing this on Thursday June 22nd.
