Whitfield County Context

Getting ready for work this morning, several things crossed my mind that I wanted to share. I tried to think of how and who to share it with. Email was too difficult; I didn't have all the right emails in all the right places. Text was too wordy. Facebook too silly.
So to Rebecca, Beth, Ashley, Rhonda, Harvey and anyone else who will:

There are several changes you will appreciate. When adults have experienced other adults in the wee small hours, on a daily basis, for too long, a certain understanding begins to form. I am not bragging!
I do not expect everyone to understand that I started wearing makeup everyday to work, because I don't leave home until 8.  I have about 50 extra bucks each month in my pocket because I don't drive across walnut avenue in the morning. I wake up without an alarm clock.
Of course I have not changed the frequency with which I wash my hair. Yes I still look like a confused English teacher when I am dressed, but that is because I am teaching science. Oh by the way, I am teaching science...Enjoy that!
Today I am wearing my Mustang Band Shirt to school. Yes I am a Red Hawk now. I know that if I were at the Brook today I couldn't wear this to school because you need a SHS shirt on Friday. Add to that the even more confusing notion that at heart I was a Greenwave for 9 years.

So who should I have shared wit? How do you relate such seemingly boring details with out boring people with the context?
