like the sun's last ray on the sea

chestnutcurlsThe sun is out today! It's been about a week.
Tutoring has been cancelled tonight, which is kind of nice because I can have free time, just me and the cat. :) I'm going to watch Friends, do some ballet, and work on my scrapbook, and then go to bed early. I'm looking forward to it. However, I had a worrisome dream involving Yolanda (my tutoree) last night- I dreamed she was in some kind of trouble and was taking drugs or something. I was looking forward to seeing her tonight and being reassured that she is okay. I'll have to save the "just say no" talk for next week. :)
Do you know what really annoys me? When I wear my boots and my socks keep falling down, causing the tops of the boots to scrape my legs. I hate that feeling. I can usually prevent it by wearing knee socks, but I only have a few pairs.
I liked Jessica's post yesterday about praying for God to fix certain problems in us, and then complaining about it when He sends problems to do so. I'm seeing that in several areas, including work. Sometimes I get so tired of the legalistic big-company mindset. There's a position open at Ryan's company, which currently has five employees, and where they have weekly remote-control car races on the roof of their building. I'm half tempted to apply for it. I know I won't, though, because I have too many benefits here to justify leaving. My family depends on me for free hotel rooms. :P I just get annoyed with people in other cities coming up with new rules and policies and forms every time I turn around. I find it all so boring that it's getting hard to muster any enthusiasm in my work, which I know is hurting my job performance. BUT...God provided me this job. He's enabling me to take care of myself and help others. So He must be using it in some way. I need a better attitude about it.
The Prisoner of Azkaban trailer is up! I have high hopes. Now that Chris Columbus isn't there to cheese everything up, this movie ought to be much better than the previous two.
