hogwarts strikes again
I started the HP curriculum at the daycare again, at the request of my class. It's a little late to blog one day at a time right now, so for those interested I'll take you through the last three:

curse you business practices
It really sucks that we get MLK day off, technically, since the school is closed, but it's still a training day. At least we'll be out by one or so, but dammit.
So who's watching Beauty and the Beast in 3D? -
