htothehSchool starts in four days. Ack. I'm mostly ready to go back, especially after the book fair on Wednesday, but still kind of not. The new teachers have been met; Schmitz seems very nice, even if she liked Tortilla Curtain, and Nelson seems kind of quiet. I'm almost looking forward to taking Latin with many freshmen; it'll give me a chance to actually meet some lower classpeople. Hopefully I can be a cool junior, like the cool upper classpeople who were in my French class freshman year.
It's utterly freaky being a junior. I'm not supposed to be a junior. I'm not old enough to be a junior! There's only this year and then one more before I'm out of high school forever, unless I decide to teach or something. I'm older than I ever imagined being, and I still don't feel old enough to be responsible for anything other than myself, and not even that sometimes. I'm going to have to find a freaking job next summer! I'm not old enough for a job, either. Where's my pause button?
Had fun today with da girls. Elena and Sam were introduced to the goodness that is Domino's Chicken Kickers, and we watched Daredevil, complete with rants on internal consistency by yours truly and comments on just about everything by Diana. I kind of wish I could have stayed longer, but I did (and do) want to get some Founding Brothers stuff done. Sigh. I'm glad I went; I almost didn't, since yesterday had far too many people in it, and by the time we had taken Trevor home I wished everyone would go away and stop talking to me, but I wanted to spend time with people I had only seen like once since school got out, so I did. And I didn't even get lost getting to Knightdale. Go me.
Am still officially grounded, but Mom's not home, and I don't think Dad really cares, so...
