These days I need The Magic Forehead just to get through a day, to keep my mind from overloading from all of the things that are floating around in there, jockeying for priority. Fortunately I'm back from teaching tango at Bates and quickly succumbing to exhaustion, which will at least shut off the thoughts for some hours. On my mind:
- improving my violin teaching
- improving my tango teaching (needs lots of improvement, trying not to stress out about it)
- did I just teach the right stuff to those tango students? Oops...see above.
- improving my violin technique
- learning Spanish
- getting ready for trip to Buenos Aires
- exploring new/old relationship with past sweetie: good idea? Do not think too much about this
- but I miss the aforementioned past sweetie...whoops, see above.
- doing next arrangement for tango band
- how to improve tango band's technique
- finish those blue pants before I go to B.A.
- can I get a lesson with Ramiro Gallo when I'm in B.A.? And can I learn Ojos Negros in time to work on it with him?
- need to hang out with Mom
- need to hang out with Dad
- need to rewire my furnace thermostat with Dad
- finish J.'s Web site
- do TML's Web site
- improve Java curriculum
- how to get this student engaged in school? Can we talk in HTML code? And how would that work?
- finish 5 posts in the works for Violin Alchemist
- do I need to get certified in Math to be able to award Math credits if we have an Arts Academy?
- how can I feed myself during the week with no time to cook?
- how can I sleep more so my face isn't asleep all the time?
- need new socks
- need a top to go with my new skirt because the season just changed and now I can't order the top I wanted
Argh.
Clearly the answer is to quit some of these things...the only problem is that I love all of them. And doing different things means when I'm frustrated with one I can think about something else.
