2-hour delay

2005-02-25
so i got a call from mf, our team leader, last night. ugh... totally couldn't go back to sleep, so i just laid there forever. sigh. good and bad. good is we have a two hour delay and bad is i'm too damned tired to run this morning. i'm hopin i can get it done at the end of the day. i also think i was short and nasty to mf when she called. she sounded like she wanted to talk and i just wanted to call the next person on the phon chain, and go to bed.

sigh..i'll need to deal with that today.

so here i sit check emails and posting to sites. kinda wish it were worse outside, but then we'd have t stay an extra day in june for it. nah. don't want that.

i woke thinking of panther. it was aweful. we used to cuddle during the snow days. extra time together and all because we both worked for school districts. it was great. now i got no one to cuddle and it just didn't fel right this morning.

ok ok no more panther talk. sorry.

last night i messengered with chickpea til i passed out. she needed distracting and i was happy to help. i think i was able to make her smile a few times and forget her worries. if anyone reads this and knows her or doesnt, email her and give her a smile. you can find her here.

well, i am having the last of my PR coffee. ugh. i need to buy more but it's one that's hardest to come by. i need to get it up from the island and it takes forever. the last bag i got, my mother bought for me. a good 5-pounder of beans. yummy. now i gots to get it myself. i know i know i'm spoiled. can't help it. : )

i finally figured out how to translate my lessons plans and other documents into better readbale formats for people to download. it'll take time but it'll be easier on us all. then i can upload my stories, poems, and units to my "bookcase" website. anyone who teachs knows how good it is to find something useful on the net. i hope what i post is useful. some of it is second hand, some of it is mine, and some of it is paid for. my way of giving back. like i told chickpea last night, my family has a long history of giving back to our community. i just have a bigger community.

ok i think i'm going to work n posting some other stuff. i may need more coffee too. weird day. i planned a quiz, which will have to be monday, because i dont see everyone today. but what do with them? i don't want them to lounge and have a study hall. maybe a ss reading with questions? i got a million of them, for any occassion. maybe black history month --i have some great ones. and progress reports are coming out this coming week, so i can make it extra credit to put a fire under their asses.

hmm...

probably expect more this morning from me, this is that kinda day.
