I understand. Have a good trip!
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
This is too cool not to post here: my therapist is in the NY Times Magazine! [link] Bec is in the therapy group covered in the article, though not a focus, for lo, she is doing well.

Our wings are not tired
And with that I am mostly packed. Of course for a trip this short packing involved grabbing my ziplock of toiletries, a shirt, a pair of socks, underwear, and the TomTom GPS and throwing them all into my computer backpack. The joys of a short trip.
Now I'm just making sure I've got some TV prepped and ready to go for watching on the iPhone.

Dennis bought Buffy season 8 for me! I don't need no stinkin' iPhone.

When do you get back, Drew?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Do your students have school email accounts?
No, they don't. I do have a web page on our school site and I can update it at will. I can easily post things there, but not all my students have home computers/internet access.
Re: bathroom passes--depends on age and school rules, but I've found a clipboard sign-out sheet hanging by the door with a generic hall pass to be effective for high schoolers.
That's good. I have middle schoolers, but I think they could do that.
I still don't know the building rules. We go over that on Thursday, I believe, so some of my class procedures will need to be adapted to fit the school policies. But, not a biggie.
And now, I must go to bed. I is a tired chickadee.

SA, I meant to say earlier that your haircut is darling. You look so adorable!
Thanks to everyone who held my hand and joined the homocidal cuddle pile earlier today. I didn't really start to feel like myself until this evening. You guys rock. As usual.
Have fun in Chicago, Laga!
My flight lands on Thursday at 9:30 PM. I'm gone for about 36 hours.I would say have fun in Florida, sweetie, but I doubt you're even going to realize that you're there. Try to get some sleep tomorrow night.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Thanks Kristin! I can't believe school is starting for you so soon. It's starting up here too, with the school zones and the uni kids moving back on campus. It makes my dad extra get-offa-my-lawn when the frat boys down the road move in to their house.
Mostly it just makes me even more anxious than I already am to move back.
