 that's the last time i posted on livejournal. That's almost exactly 3 years. Guess I became a teacher and got behind on all sorts of things. Tis ok. I will post today anyway. Even if it's another 105 weeks until I do so again. Is it just me or do junior high kids know more about ife than they should? I have a seventh grader being treated for

i love that you are covering both sides of your teaching job. i have several friends who are teachers who are either almost fatally idealistic or who are bitterly cynical. it is nice hearing a balanced story about a teaching job.

and your wisecracks are great! that actually makes for a memorable teacher for the students who really want to try. they remember how you tried to keep the class in line and it really counts for something in the end.

i think this long ass post makes up for the 105 weeks of not writing in it.
