my mind is not here

my mind is everywhere else
last week of the semester
passed that stinking math test (finally)
only 4 more tests and a presentation to go
plus the praxis, but I'm trying not to worry about it
next comes 7 weeks of doing things
whatever I feel like doing
get to sleep in my own bed in my own room
get to see John Mayer live in 9 days
get to go camping with the fam
get to finish Anne of Green Gables
and perhaps start something new
get to finish projects
get to do laundry for free
get to be somewhere that is not Idaho
get to go shopping
get to have air conditioning
get to do some singing and recording
get to write some letters that are way overdue
get to see people who I have not seen for a long time
maybe look for a job
maybe not

miss our makeshift porch
and rexburg in the summer
and my students
and my roommates
and the relief society
and my school friends and life

but so ready ready ready for a summer break
can't get my mind to be here

I'm so jealous you get to see John Mayer! I love him. You'll have to let me know how the concert goes.

You're recording more? Send some of it my way--I would LOVE to hear you sing some more!
