You can dance if you want to

Weeee!
Neptune classes are basically running themselves now.
My "Collective Creation" class has come up with an outline for their play

*****
Two rival junior high schools, one from Paupa New Guinea and one from Poland, both take simultaneous school trips to a special zoo in Italy. While there, they hear that Michael Jackson will be playing a concert at the zoo that night. The two schools fight for the best spot in front of the stage, and things are escallating until a band takes the stage; except, it isn't Michael Jackson...it's a Jonas Brothers cover band, the "Jonas Sisters". The kids get so angry they rally together and storm the stage, kicking the Jonas Sisters off. Just when the kids are all starting to get along and we think we're in for a happy ending, ninjas come and destroy them all. The End.

...they're 10-12 year olds. They're a little weird, but they're pre-pubescent. They're supposed to be weird.

The older class is working on monologues, and working quite hard, actually. It's really nice to see their progress.

My dance classes have been going quite well. I just came back from one actually, and wow, do I ever feel good. Nothing like having the kids make breakthrus and enjoy your choreography! I have a bunch of other classes to sub in the next few weeks, which is good, because money is necessary, but totally doesn't feel earned by what I'm doing to get it. Love that.

I'm glad the cemetery tours are over. They weren't too too bad two weeks ago, but this past Saturday was just brutally cold. I was happy to go home after that one.
