Office 19, Tuesday

[veryverypopular]

It was hot, and Glinda had gotten a sunburn from last week's tanning. So this week the office stayed as it was built, and the Margarator had made a triumphant return.

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

On the door, there was a handwritten sign:
Teachers: step in for a free gift.

[Oooooopen]

Well, Robin wasn't a teacher, but he knocked anyway. There was something he wanted to ask her.

Glinda quickly moved the Margarator from her desk and onto a side table that was partially out of sight, and then called, "Come in!"

[robinthefrog]

"Hi Miss Glinda." Robin said as he came in. "How are you?"

[veryverypopular]

"I'm fine," she replied, "looking forward to the break before fall classes start. How about you?"

[robinthefrog]

"I am too. I might go visit my uncle in Los Angeles for a bit."

[veryverypopular]

"Why, that sounds like it will be fun," she replied. "A nice change of pace from school and the island, anyways."

[robinthefrog]

"Uh huh. But actually, I wanted to ask you about something about next term."

[veryverypopular]

"Oh? What's that?" Glinda smiled encouragingly at the frog.

[robinthefrog]

"Well I'm hoping to start a band, and I was hoping you'd be our faculty adviser."

[veryverypopular]

"Why Robin, I'd be honored to," she said. "It sounds like it will be so much fun! Honestly, I was quite surprised that there wasn't one here yet, but this will be a change for the better!"

[robinthefrog]

"Yay! Thank you!" he bounced excitedly.

"You're more than welcome. Would you mind being a student ambassador of sorts and letting your classmates know? -Those who will be here in the fall, I mean," she corrected herself. "I'll see about getting a sign-up sheet of some sort on one of the tables at the welcome picnic, so the new students can see it and so I can ascertain what we have for interest."

[robinthefrog]

"Sure! I know there's a club fair every semester too, so that'll help."

[veryverypopular]

"Oh how very nice!" Glinda said. "We'll have to get organized for that as well. But all in due time! We'll worry about that when it's a touch closer, and when everyone isn't in the middle of worrying about finals."

[robinthefrog]

"Will you be teaching still this fall?"

[veryverypopular]

"I plan to, unless something arises," she replied. "How to win friends and influence people!"

Yes, she's working from a book that was published 70 years ago, but hey, the rules still worked.
