I just rechecked the roster. I have 58. Killer. I can't fit 58 desks in the room. I mean, I could as I have a massive room. But 58 is ridiculous.
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

I could take my 58 students and divide them into 2 normal sized classes.

is it like first week of classes at my college and you just have to try to convince people to drop it? I'd have a pop quiz on day 2. and an essay due on Friday.

Or with my 58, I could start a NCAA football team. Or I could run a huge basketball tournament with kids in the class.
But teach journalism and academic decathalon. Um. No.
Whatev.

Oh. My AP classes? They have a test tomorrow (day one!) and serious homework and then an in-class essay due on Friday. AND the asshat administrator dumped 7 kids who have scored Far Below Basic (or Epic Fail in my naming convention of scores) in AP Lit. Really? These kids, according to state tests, can't even read kinda near grade level. So thanks for that.

They can do "Curious George Takes an AP Class" and "Magic Tree House: Adventure in Advanced Placement" and "Harry Potter and the College Entrance Exams".

one more thing just because I AM RIDICULOUS. Nathan Fillion is in NYC and I actually thought, like real thought in my brain, well why didn't anyone tell me?!?
I think they must be slipping crack into my morning coffee.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I would have told you if I knew!
msbelle, if you're still awake, what matches did you see?
Just watched the Monfils/Nadal match. Poor Monfils. Ran out of gas. Nadal's a machine. He sweats like a pig, but doesn't breathe hard. Just keeps going and going and going and winning. I hope he meets Federer in the final. I can't believe Federer has to play Soderling again. I'm worried Soderling will break his, what, 11 match losing streak.
