In two days....

my life changed...on Tuesday received phone calls offering me two jobs at Friends for the next two days. Both were subbing for tenth graders; I saw that group three times this week, really getting to know them, an excellent adventure. Many of them I know from my marathon two weeks replacing Lianna as an English teacher in 2012, back when they were sixth graders.So, when i left Friends yesterday, it was with great relief, yes, the three days out of four there left me tired, but my budget is much closer to being balanced then it was before the week began.
New pay period began today, next week have booked three library days, and for now, two sub assignments. For the week after, which ends the pay period, I have already booked one. So things are looking up, that plus the tutoring should make me pretty comfortable in the weeks to come.
Not a lot much more to discuss, on Monday, John, a playwright friend of mine, from the Bushwick Starr is having a reading of a new play of his, would love to go, but with the work during the day, and the library committment until 6, wonder if I will have the strength to travel to Bushwick after all that.
On Monday night, tired from the subbing and three hour library assignment, I nevertheless pushed myself to Joe's Pub for the Half Straddle benefit. Had good time, the presentations were dynamic, but also (as is often the case at benefits) a little bit self congradulatory----the combination of the day work and the night "partying" (if that is what you wish to call it) left me pretty fatigued the next day. That is what is on my mind when I think about Monday, really hope I can do it, for John is a really nice guy, and I would like to be supportive of his work. Plus always enjoy being part of the Bushwick Starr 'community".  But rest is important to, let's see how the weekend plays out.
Rest of day fairly open, may have two sessions, not sure about plans for tonight---should do something and also check in on the Roya- BlueJay game 6. Hope the Royals win it, think that that would be a much more interesting match up against the Mets.
Still would love to see Rocco and His Brothers, this time around at Film Forum, but wonder if that is possible. This afternoon will probably head to Lincoln Center library to do some browsing, maybe read a bit of Tanner on Shakespeare before heading to Harlem.
Will report back later...
