Days 3-4-5

Well I write this from Seattle which is far from where I am teaching. Day 3 was a travel day to the west as I wasn't allowed to go to New Teacher Orientation. I spent Day 4 trying to figure out (from afar) if I could actually teach. Day 5 brought the news - it appears I can. Day 6 should be a crazy mix of running to sign my contract and then heading off to my new job. I wish I could say that I feel confident that this will all happen, but mostly I feel like there will be more red tape and hoops in my future.
