  • It's crunch time for the musical, since it opens up on April 21, 2005.  I have to commit myself more.  There's so much going on right now, that I'm having a hard time balancing everything.  Time management.  I used to be very proud of my time management skills.  Either they have deteriorated, or the combination of everything has adapted to my abilities.  Such is entropy.


    Work is very rewarding right now.  I'm learning a lot of information, and am having a moderately decent time remembering all the steps and processes and what structures handle what issues within the ENTIRE California Department of Education (CDE) and its thousands of employees.  I've even learned a few things about the structure of education.  For example, much like in federalism, where the states maintain a certain level of autonomy to govern themselves in regards to certain issues, the same is true of the relationship between the school districts and CDE.  So if you're going to complain about something that's going on in a school, go get and submit a Uniform Complaint Procedure (UCP) Form first at the district office.


    I still feel extremely busy, but that's just me making the most of the time that I have here on earth.  I knew very little about Pope John Paul II, but as I read more and more about him, the more I do believe that he was a strong example of morality.  I wouldn't call him perfect nor a saint, as some people done, but I do think he was better than most people.  A lot of people knock the Catholic church for the whole molestation scandal, but blame must be shared between the system of the church, and the individuals that committed the reprehensible acts.


    I'm also moved at how strong the Full Equity campaign is right now.  I was pleasantly surprised to find that the veteran's issue was listed as a hot story on the Yahoo! home page.  I give all the credit to those dedicated individuals that are bringing their skills and talents to the care of the veterans.  We are blessed to have you.


    The world is in a constant state of change, some of it good, some of it bad.  While it is difficult to right the wrong, and fix the broken, it is worth it.  We could always use the help.
