Kristin, that sucks. I wonder if your kids could some writing with peer evaluation? Something simple even like: write about your favorite book, trying to convince someone else to read it? Can pass the essay to a fellow student, have them evaluate the review and whether they were convinced!?
Early: Where'd she go? Simon: I can't keep track of her when she's not incorporeally possessing a space ship. Don't look at me.

If this was an extra week that would work, but it looks like they are going to reschedule the trip for some time in April or May, so I can't lose curriculum time this week. They were at the beginning of a project, so I will have them keep working on that for a couple of days and then shift gears mid-week, I guess. It's just a tad bit awkward because we only have this week until Spring Break, so if I start something now they will likely forget it by the time they come back. It will all work out, but ack.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I was so taking notes during the chocolate conversation. Must try the Dagoba. I'm also willing to try the regular cocoa but at the 3 T amount per weensy serving. How bad could it be?
Kat, as a mom what has seen a lot of goodie bags, I think the less objects in them, the better. Those are perfect.

Ugh Kristin, I hate having to change my class plan at the last minute. Esp when the plan had been NO CLASS.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Ack, Kristin. That's a lot of class to prep for when you weren't expecting it.
I want chocolate now. Mmm, chocolate.

So AT&T is buying T-Mobile? When is the Quickening?

Fucking Insomnia Fairy. I got 3 hours of sleep last night, and I'm at work now. Fuck.

I've been up since ass o'clock in the morning. Sharing a small, uncomfortable guest bed with the kids at my sister's does not make for a good night's sleep.
But I got up, walked the dog, made coffee and baked cherry turnovers. So there's that.

Thunder and lightning and hail. All before 7 am. I am never going to get used to morning thunderstorms.

I would love to know what time ass o'clock is. It sounds like an obscene time, no doubt.
