The first...follow me if you can!

So it's the first "day" of summer, and the school that sits across the street from me is finally silenced! I realize more and more (screaming children) that I was not meant to follow in the footsteps of my family line of educators. The thought did cross my mind when I see my best friends and (undergrad) colleagues buying houses and living life! As for now I'm content(?) to live off the Bank of Montreal and my fiancee, but someday I'd really like to see the cash in my account be earned by an actual career. I won't get into the "career" thing now, that's a whole month's worth of writing, and as this is the inaugural "post", I better keep it as cliche as possible.

I was inspired to keep a journal by a movie I watched last night. No, it wasn't an arthouse pic, or some kind of cryfest drama...it was "Fool's Gold". They found the treasure based on some Spanish guy's journal from the 1700's. I thought "300 years from now, no one will be able to find my treasure, so I better start making a journal about it....then start making a boatload of money"...At least now these first posts will throw them off the trail a bit.
