Dear Sub Jobs, Thanks for opening up.  The 8th graders today weren't as bad as I expected them to be.  I'm very excited about working with Kindergarteners tomorrow.  Then back to the middle school on Friday.  Please open up some spots for next week.  It'd be much appreciated!  Dear BF, I miss you...a lot...and it's only been 2 days.  Not even 2 full days!  Gah...this distance thing stinks...a lot.  Dear Myanmar, 19 days.  19.  That's 2 weeks and 5 days.  7 + 7 + 5.  10 + 9.  5 + 5 + 9.  19!!!!  Ahhhhh! I am so incredibly excited.  Dear Zach, Have I mentioned that I miss you?  I had a fantastic weekend with you and your family.  You're my favorite person to hang out with.  It doesn't matter if we're helping with a middle school talent show, walking around WalMart or Sam's Club, working on my truck, or just hanging out watching TV, you're my favorite person to do these things with.  I miss you when we're not together.  Not just when we're 2 hours apart, but even when we were just 2 buildings apart.  It really sucks when one of us gets not-so-good news and we're apart.  I don't know about you, but you're the first person I want to talk to and get a hug from when I get bad news, and good news for that matter!  Not that I'm wishing our lives away, but I'm really looking forward to the days when we get to always come home to each other and don't have to be 2 hours apart for extended periods of time.  I love you!
