If your idea of education reform means diverting resources (time, attention, services, or materials) from other students so that your darling little munchkin can have more, then no, I am not likely to take you seriously. In fact, it's quite probable that I'm secretly thinking you're a nutcase. I may not say it out loud, but I am probably thinking it very fiercely indeed.
Sincerely,
A Teacher

I Must Be Having Fun
I can't believe it's been over a week since I've blogged. Longer since I've written anything here.
I think there are things I could have written about, but right now I'm so tired that I can't think of any of them.
Thanksgiving break was a flurry of activity; we drove out of state to visit family, then we had family time with a couple of different groups of relatives who live nearby, and finally we had some cousins who were passing through who visited with us. And also there was a beta test of the new Star Wars MMO.
Also I had my final expansion. The procedure itself doesn't hurt, but as my skin stretches and adjusts, I get these sharp stabby pains that are kind of a lot of not-fun. So I've been pretty heavily medicated this week. The days are a mix of struggling to stay alert in school and struggling to nap while at home.
This doesn't feel like a real blog post. I don't have a point.
We're going to Disney World again over winter break. They have waffle sandwiches ... I want to try one. We didn't win the drawing to spend a night in Cinderella Castle. The band teacher said he'd print me a piano arrangement of "Bourbon Street Blues" but I asked back in August and he didn't and then I reminded him around Halloween and he said he'd get it to me by Thanksgiving and he didn't.
It frustrates me when people don't follow through on what they say.
I wish I had a point.
