Epic Excuse

Dear Teacher,
Please excuse Marie Smith for being late, the toaster exploded.

Huh

You would think that a day that involved me guilt-tripping a parent for taking her daughter out to lunch (seriously, the kid has missed a week in my class) and this ultimatum to computer-game-playing kids: "If you don't stop playing that game, by Friday either I'm going to be in the looney bin or one of you will be in the hospital" would be filed under "bad day."

But no, it was one of my best days at GHS yet, with ACTUAL TEACHING occurring (I got to introduce 2 new topics), aesthetic feedback on projects, and finally getting down most of the names!

We'll see about the computer game issue.
