Sailing Through the Day!

In nineteen-ninety-two, Sunnyside High graduated the chosen few...ok, that was an awkward segue into Columbus Day...sorry. Happy Columbus Day!

I taught High School today. Not just any old high school, though. I hve become used to the horseplay that happns in freshmen and sophomore classes. Today, however, I was more than surprised! I taught(babysat? hosted? really, what's the right word here?) 12th graders. Seniors. I think I am in love. I have never, well, not since student teaching, had such well-behaved, serious about learning, get down to business students. I nearly tripped over my jaw. I was stunned that students could be so obedient, respectful, and serious about school. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! I actually got some reading done for my master's(that might be a tad bit optimistic, since it will probably take about 9,028 more days just like that to get to all my books).

Cora cooked chicken fajitas tonight...I think I overstuffed myself. I am slothful...must beware of harpoons...have great day.

Jeez what has become of kids these days, I can't remember being respectful to a sub... does the term "sink the sub" come to mind?

oh and thanks for the live traffic thing-a-ma-bob on your page. I had seen it on another blog and then couldn't find it to put it on mine. You saved me exploring! Thanks.
