Things I’ve learned in the past 24 hours:

* Indian food is really, really good! One of my students’ parents own an Indian restaurant here in Los Angeles, and last night 3 colleagues and I went to eat there. Indian food is really good!

* Los Angeles traffic sucks! Especially trying to get out of an underground parking structure for a complex in which a Trader Joe’s was just added. Seriously, they need to drill a new hole in the wall.

* Scantron has evolved greatly in the last 20 years. Today I was in an all day meeting learning how to use this new Scantron machine. Boring. Boring. Boring. And ultimately, because of the way my wonderful school runs,what I know will happen is that either no teachers will end up using this, or all the work will be forced upon one or two people. Fun.

* Administration finally had approved our 6th grade math intervention plan for next year! Yay! Oh wait a minute….feeling like that moment you’ve passed the point of no return on the roller coaster. No turning back now. What have I gotten myself into????
