So the world has happened, as it often does, very suddenly and very overwhelmingly. I have started rehersals for a youth Shakespeare program (I’m assistant director), and of course that’s not overly organized. It is, today, 109 degrees, up from 107 yesterday (110 tomorrow, I am told). Plus my normal work duties!
I require air conditioning and tea.
I almost never sleep with the air conditioning on. I usually like to open my windows at night, get fresh air and hopefully cool down the house that way. But, with the temps being as high as they are it never cools down, so last night I slept with the air on, and had the first good nights sleep in days.
My tea, this morning, was this blend, which I always found to be fruity and pleasant. It is also a sipdown, to my great pleasure. It was a lovely blend, but I’ve had so many lovely blends in my cupboard that I am suffering from blend overload.
So, this was my final cup of this (at least for a good solid while), and I hope it gets me through the day well.
Sipdown!
What a badass job!
What age kids are you working with?
Teens. Ages 13- 18. Its my first time directing in any capacity (I used to act), so I’m a bit nervous still, but the kids are great.
I know the feeling of blendy overload! You have an awesome job, that’s amazing!!
Seriously super-fun job—though I see the potential for stress too. And that heat, oy! Awesome that you have air con as an option.
Oh, sal—-oot! Fifth and sixth graders are my area of expertise…once they hit middle school, forget it! :)
