I'm sorry to hear the bad news, DJ. Here's to finding a new job soon.
Weekend plans currently include dance class, grading, and a movie play date to see HSM3.
So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

Thrive to spite them
The local paper today had a letter where the author was talking about reactions to the election, including comments that Obama should be assassinated and "drug behind a truck."
And that's just typical of a certain mindset. Not just Southern (although I can say it is) but the whole extreme right thinking -- the violence towards anyone who thinks different. It's not enough forthem to say, you're wrong, I think that's crazy, but it always has to be, you're wrong and I want to maim/hurt/kill you.
I don't understand that thinking and I never will. And this is applied to anyone, Kathleen Parker got a taste of it when she changed her mind about Palin.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
Weekend: sleep, lesson plans, grading, read a book, catch up on some work, go see a show. I should go to the Homecoming dance tomorrow night. Since the evil principal asked, though, I don't feel like it. Maybe it will annoy him.

I'm on the BB so I can,t link, but did you see about the kids in Mississippi who were threatened with suspension for talking about Obama? It was the basketball coach and the bus driver, not the administration, and sounds like they're being dealt with, but still.

You know, I've insulated myself from a lot of the nastiness. I know it is out there, but...nope, can't go there.

All the high schools in Duval County were beefed up with extra security all this week because of fears of violence related to the election.
I hate this freakin' town.

Daisy, I'm so sorry.
I have a four day weekend, b/c my EDO is on Monday, and Tuesday is a holiday. I was supposed to the country and viist a friend, but stuff came up with her, and now it's not happening. So, I don't know what the weekend brings...
Tonight I am so tired I think I may go to bed soon, and bed before midnight is unheard of for me.
