i'm glad ms m is keeping track of Jesus' schedule.

today i found out why things seem to go to hell in a hand-basket at school right around 10 a.m. at school...

but i do take comfort in knowing that ms. m is keeping tabs on him.

our books finally came in and the kids will get to read them and leave comments starting on wed. when they return to school. only my last class saw that they were in, but i kept them busy so that they couldn't pester me about it. smile. hopefully we can set up a 'meet the author night' on a PTA night so the  kids can show off their books to their parents! they should be proud of themselves!

expository writing...

today was the beginning of 'the biggest loser contest' at our school. which i was not going to do, because i was going to just do my own thing, but i decided to go ahead and do this for accountability's sake. but as i was looking through the information i found this:

from overweight, you just become obsessed.

so to celebrate, i went ahead and had fish...at glorias...with chips. and i got some grading done. not all of it, but some of it. i observed as some guy (must've been the owner) was chatting with some designers or contractors about changing something there at the bldg on beltline. something about making salsa night spicier...they were looking over blueprints and measuring stuff, and then the hostess sat a lady in the table in front of me and she was facing me, waiting for someone else. she ordered hot tea (which seems a little strange for a friday at gloria's). but it was awkward because the other person hadn't arrived, so you know how it is when you look up and you can't avoid the other peoples' eyes...i left.

only, when i got to my car, SOMEONE next to me parked a little too close.

i DID leave a note.it was NOT nice.

look at that-the spaces are small, but you at least have to stay out of the white zone!

so, yeah. i had to get in on the passenger side. jerk.

anyhoo, i'm excited that i will get to hang out with one of my ok friends (oklahoma, not like i level my friends, in that case it would be one of my amazing friends) tomorrow. smiles. probably go downtown and find some fun things to do...or something.
