My head is reeling a bit from the FCMs. Scaaaarrry.
I am so out of it I have no idea what I'm going to do this weekend. Laundry? Probably. And a bit of grading. And figuring out what Franny needs for her first day. Oy.
Police procedure has changed since I was little.

Art Crawl!!!
She doesn't start until after Labor Day?
I had no idea that there were school systems that still did that - pretty cool.
Plus - you get Labor Day sales to find all the stuff on that school supply list.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

In the center of the storm is Mr. Thweatt, a man who describes himself as “a contingency planner,” who believes Americans should be less afraid of protecting themselves and who thinks signs at schools saying “gun-free zone” make them targets for armed attacks. “That’s like saying sic ’em to a dog,” he said.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
Go Spring Awakening! Choose Spring Awakening!
Totally!
I think my students and I should get back to writing "F*** You:the musical". I could promote it as a cross curricular activity.

The schools in my town always started the Wednesday after Labor Day, unless Labor Day ended up really late that year. I'm pretty sure they still do it that way. (I just checked the calendar on the town website, and that's the way they're doing it this year.)

Oh, Al. Go on with your bad self, dude. You're making me proud.

I'll have been working here 11 years on Tuesday. Celebrated with my first solo build. Fun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I still think it's weird when places don't! My coworker's kid started today, which I think is really weird -- two days on, three days off?

Yep, Wednesday after. My sister's kids start on Tuesday.
Sigh. I do like Gore. Shame about 2000.
