School seriously needs to start. With each day that goes by, I think about more and more things that I need to buy for my classroom. And of course, I buy them. Thankfully I get a pay check on Thursday. If school started any later than tomorrow, I think I'd have to start hiding my wallet.
Speaking of tomorrow, I'm pretty much ready. I just have to put together a getting to know you-type survey for the kids, and I'll be good to go. For Monday, anyway. The rest of the week is a whole other story. Don't get me wrong, I know exactly what I'm doing. I just don't have any of it ready. The following week is beyond me, though. I have no idea what I'll be doing. At least we (and I use the "royal we" here, it was really just the teacher next door to me) planned a year-overview, broken down by semester, quarter, and month. I felt like such a slacker. Oh well, now I just really need to come through for her with the lessons for
Arabian Nights and
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, so that's what I'm going to do right now. It should be interesting, since I haven't read either. I guess that's step number one.
In a completely unrelated side note, FOX's game of the week yesterday was either the Tigers and Yankees or Cubs and Cardinals. Every time time the Tigers are scheduled to play on FOX, they always show the alternate game down here, so I didn't really think about it. Naturally, they showed the Tigers...the one time I didn't think to check! Sometimes I swear there's a conspiracy against me.
