good news

woohoo, business is picking up. i have a new tutoring client, a tenth grader, who is in need of some geometry and trig help. and another parent from the neighborhood is sick of paying $60/hr for the certified teacher who tutors her 9th grade son and is looking for a cheaper option which is where i come into play.

my neighbor just checked with me first before she referred me since she thought i was too busy already. hells freaking no! i just finished school, and i'm basically sitting on my ass all day doing nothing. i have a cleaning lady and i don't even work, aside from one tutoring job a week. even my office work has come to a grinding halt and when it does pick up, i will still have plenty of time to devote to it, because, did i mention... i am FINISHED with school?!!

so now i definitely have two regular clients, and potentially three. which means i can bring in a sizable sum of extra cash each month. this will definitely delight my husband, who is always asking me "what exactly is it that you do all day?"

and now that i have unofficially graduated, i can get back to the gym. my fat ass seems to have gained about 8 lbs this semester. i have so much to do while i'm waiting on my reply from nyctf.

in other news, our trip to atlantic city was somewhat of a success. my husband lost $60 in the slots in a matter of minutes. i lost $30 in the slots, and then $60 at blackjack. i put one last $20 into the slots thinking my husband (who was sleeping in the room at the time) would kill me when he found out, since i was going over our maximum by $10.

anyhow, i lost it all and then by a stroke of luck, i won $180 on my very last quarter. i cashed out, put in another $20, and turned it into $60 within 2 minutes. so when all was said and done, i walked out $70 ahead. my husband couldn't believe it when i told him. we didn't have to pay for the hotel room, so between food, gas, and tolls, we broke out completely even and got a whole 24 hours away from the kids. i'm all for going back there again if the big L is willing to babysit.
