second day volunteering...
Director needs to know if i can temporarily replace the computer teacher in january.
it's paid.

Now i need to ask my supervisor at my temp job (of five months) if i can switch two of my days to do this gig.

There are more kids. Kids i did not meet on tues were here today. Some only come on certain days.

Let me see... there's Malcolm-- smart 3rd grader
Naychez- she has like two pronunciations for it.
some kid with glasses and feckles (?)
Anyway It's gonna be a while til i remember everyone's name.

Success... found 4Hero's Creating Patterns at the Virgin Megastore in Times Square... go figure. for 19.99, which is what i paid for their first album. Now I need to get a hold of their remix of the first CD. It looks like the usual suspects-- which is why i don't think it was worth it to buy Bebel Giberto's Tanto Tempo remix album. it's usually the same heads-- Rae & Christian, King Britt, etc. it's not that they aren't good but they do not necessarily add to the original versions.
