sneakfest

Thanks to Christmas, I have evening activities scheduled for every night this week... obligatory parties and such. It'd be far more fun if they were spread out over the year. Then again, it'd be kind of weird to have a Christmas party in March. But, I'd go for it. It's Mad Hatter chic. Very merry unbirthday.

All this whining to say, I'm playing hookie. Woohoo! Feels good and helps me relate to my students.

Furthermore, the principal sent an edict yesterday that we have to vacate the building by 5p.m (4:45 to be exact). Terrible news, friends. I have so much work, one of the copiers is broken and the kids are going ballistic because it's so near the holidays. I've been avoiding bringing work home, but not anymore. Bring it on. And the Christmas parade was cancelled so we have a full day; I'm looking forward to placating all the happy campers tomorrow. "Do we have to do work?"

Forget smart boards, I finally got white boards. I'm busy rearranging my classroom to accommodate this! I now must go to Office Depot and spend some money. Afterall, it's Wednesday and I haven't spent fifty dollars on my class yet. Something's wrong.
