Car ride home tonight = (about half of the) State of the Union Address + commentary + nearly 2 music cds ---> Yes, if you do the math, that comes to right around 2 hours (usually it's a 40 minute drive). Good thing I filled up on gas yesterday.
Nothing too exciting happened today, unless you count a couple of kids finally admitting that they actually enjoyed math and one girl falling into the recycling classroom bin after school. (She's ok.) We also hosted a 4/5 parent meeting to empower parents to talk to their students about sexuality and body changes - I think it went over quite well. (The parents seemed very receptive.)
I honestly didn't even bring in my teacher bag of stuff tonight when I got home - it's going to be pretty much straight to bed here in a few minutes. If I know one thing, it's that I need sleep to be able to function in the classroom. (I also know that without a special tomorrow, it's going to be nonstop until after the faculty and AR team meetings.)
But somehow, I'm still smiling. (Maybe it's because I'm "counting blessings instead of sheep...")
