I say come here, then couch-hop around the U.S. until it's time to fly to your new job.
Yes! Or, or, you and I could team up, find a middle school teacher, and we'd be like traveling schoolteachers of the Old West. Hired Chalks, they'd call us. We Fight Crime! And ignorance.
(There are lots of poems I simply can't read to kids, even though they're very good, because they BREAK me.)
I can't read
The Velveteen Rabbit.
I can't even describe it or explain the plot to someone else, because I get very very emotional about it.
It is the very best Disney movie bar none. OMG. And Lilo, bless her, in her wee (WhateverTheHawaiianWordForGalibeyaIs), and the other bloody wretched little girls in their pink tops and clean sneakers and jeans, with their bloody Barbie dolls, argh! And Lilo is so entirely
fabulous,
feeding Pudge the fish because he controls the weather, and suspecting her sister's boss of being a vampire with legions of undead, and loving Elvis, and just being The Coolest Wee Person Ever, and I...as it turns out, need to stop typing, because I can't see the bloody screen anymore. Argh. Am snotty mess.
Enough already.
Anyway, on a more cheery note I have a wee Grade 1 in my end-of-the-day class (3 wee boys & 2 wee girls) who is pretty much as adorable as Lilo. But in a much less heart-breaking way. Which is good. Yes. Having her in my lesson always makes the day end on a high note, because she is unspeakably endearing. Although sans monster.
ev(il)+(a)dorable.

Yeah, but you get to put in a stealth adorable and get a delayed narrow-eyed squinchy face from Pete.
Speaking of evil, CEO just sent my boss an email requesting a three-way with her and one of the senior VPs. Not enough ew in the world, I don't care that he didn't mean it that way.
