Why I haven't been around much...

[josie]

Hi all,
I just wanted to go on record as to why you haven't seen me online as much lately. Ok first the less than happy reasons... I was laid off from my teaching job ias a GED teacher n June due to budget cuts. Because of No Child Left Behind, I am now required to get secondary ed certification/extension in some academic area in order to continue teaching. So now I'm taking coursework towards getting my 7-12 extension in Math. This would allow me to either teach GED classes OR Mathematics in middle/highschool.

Ok, the happier reason why I haven't been online much is because I am with someone special now. I have known this person 9 years, but we had fallen out of touch. About 2 months ago he contacted me by email, out of the blue. We had our first date and BAM, instant relationship. I am very happy with Matt 🙂 He is not a ticklephile perse, not in our meaning of the word, but he is very much into it with me. No bondage (at least not yet!) but very happy and loving. I am trying to introduce him into it a bit more over time; but I don't want to screw things up. Wish me luck in my endeavors 😉

ticklishly yours,
Josie

Hi, Josie. 😀
I do wish you luck, both with Matt and with getting your teaching credentials.

Hey Josei

Haven't talked with you in a long time. I'm glad to see that things are better for you now. I am also sure that you will get the certificate and back to what you enjoy so much. Be happy.

eh, forget the teaching crap. Train Matt to YOUR way of thinking first.
Once that works, then go out and get a real job.
First things first ya know ?

WARNING: some here may disagree with my indolence.

if so you have two choices:

1. flame me
2. ignore me
3. sue me

I like this new math, I feel really good about myself and have really high self-esteem.

Josie, I'm sorry to hear you were laid off. 🙁 Work as hard as you can toward getting your 7-12 extension in Math, and don't give up no matter what. There aren't enough good teachers out there, so you're needed. 🙂

Regarding your relationship with Matt, I hope everything works out for the both of you. You're doing the right thing by introducing him to the world of tickling bit by bit. One day he just might become a full-fledged ticklephile. 😀

P.S. Shame on you, TKpervert! 😛
