I've received two letters in the past two days pertaining to my teaching career.
1. My first "thanks, but no thanks" letter (Calgary Board of Education) - I wasn't holding my breath on this one
2. My very own Alberta Education interim professional certificate

Yesterday, I went to a birthday party disguised as a night out with friends hosted by two people, one a dental student (one year to go), another a chemical engineer (unemployed, but holding out for a better job). They went to the same high school that I did. I saw people I haven't seen for some two years. We ate at a Thai restaurant. We didn't order enough food. After some delicious frozen DQ ice cream cake, we went to Kinpark (at Kinsmen Park), where they have great slides and swinging equipment for schoolage children. It wasn't my idea.
