Sox, that sounds like a great year end treat!
I have decided I need to rework my syllabus and get it approved by the College Board. Then I will sort of relax again.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Ah, senior finals.
My first hour is blessedly empty and silent. But my schedule will be different today: No 1st hour, my 2nd hour I'm subbing for Sr. finals proctor, so free day, 3rd and 4th hour, I teach my juniors, then lunch.
No fifth or sxth hour; then I teach my 7th hour, then I "proctor" senior finals 8th hour -- by which time they willl be all done and I get to spend the last hour of their HS careers shooting the shit with them and I get to say, for the last time, "You are dismissed...FROM HIGH SCHOOL!"
WOO!
Then for the rest of the year I have no classes 1, 2, 5, 6 and 8 hours. ROCK ON.

Did people know that David Tennant and Catherine Tate were playing Beatrice and Benedict in Much Ado About Nothing. Set in the 80s! I'm thinking it would be a fun production to see. There's an audio interview here: [link]

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
My friends just saw it. Apparently David Tennant is in drag at one point.
Arthur Darvill is in Dr. Faustus at the Globe, too.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So the high in Chicago today is supposed to be 46. We may break the recored for the lowest high for this day.
Sunday is supposed to be 90. Looks like we're going straight from Winter to Summer.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, god, just watching that guy (no audio) makes me feel ill.
I know markup is the business, but I can't help but feel highly robbed by a $3 bowl of oatmeal. They didn't even put in hot milk. It's just water. From here on in, I bring my own.
Fuck, I can't find my iPod.
