Wow. Life is full.
Just today:
Two of my 8th grade girls served the first day of their suspension for throwing some punches at each other (with mild success) just 10 minutes before school ended yesterday. I feel like I need one of those signs you see at industrial plants, only with this one reading “Days Since [...]

One of my quirks as a teacher is to present my kids with a “good news-bad news” scenario. I have yet to figure out why they inevitably want to hear the bad news first. Regardless, I’ve been finding out very recently of some good news - bad news scenarios of my own!!!

In memoriam of the season that “once was”, also known as the season that “should have been”, I have changed my desktop wallpaper to accurately reflect my state of mind and soul that I currently find myself in. “The horror, the horror…”

My former roommate Brett. My colleague Jennifer. My Dad. What do these three people have in common? Well, not much except for the fact that all three are currently reveling in the sad state of demise that seems to have enveloped my New York Mets as they have now fallen into second place (to the [...]
