These dreams go on when I close my eyes…
Yesterday was my mom’s birthday. She’s 60! But she’s awesome! So it’s all good.
Oh, it was also Valentine’s Day! We were so romantic. We watched TV, ate supper, gave each other little gifts, then I was asleep by 8:30. That’s how I roll.
Rob had the day off today. Because of weather I had a one-hour delay, but ended up having to go in. The day seemed hugely long, though. Because of the weather, our Winter Carnival activities were cancelled, so we just had regular classes. The kids were miserable. Half of them went home, so there wasn’t really any use in teaching anything new. So we reviewed, played games, did skits (oh, the skits). Then, last period of the day, there was a teachers vs. students ball-hockey game. No, no, I didn’t play. Wouldn’t have been fair to the kids– I’d have clobbered them 
. I sat in the stands. Somehow all the special kids like to come sit with me. I think that’s nice.
And finally. Last night I dreamed that I took my seventh graders to a stripclub for a field trip. But I made them all keep their eyes closed the whole time. And then as we were walking back to school the Ramones tried to start a fight with us, but I kicked Joey Ramone in the sac. He fell over. We ran away.
Yes. I’m an educator.

It could be worse. You could be a psychologist.

You reminded me of the night I was watching the Super Bowl with friends and they left their 12 year old son and me alone watching half-time while they cleaned the kitchen… that just happened to be the night of Janet Jackson’s “wardrobe malfunction” and after it was all over (as we sat there, completely, stunned) I looked at him and said “Did you see that?!” when he said “Yes!” I put my hand over his eyes – he kept yelling “But, it’s too late – it’s not on NOW!”
