shits and giggles
if only i had a reason to go to boston and play with the DNC. maybe i should switch professions... but then i wouldn't get to play in my rockin-cool classroom, which - by the way - comes with:
- double the space of my last classroom
- a phone
- ceiling fans
- a computer hook-up for powerpoint presentions???
- an overhead machine
- only 20 desks (that's right - as in, plan to have no more than 20 students per class!!!!)
- a peer-editing table
- no fewer than 8 bookshelves, filled with classroom sets
- a long whiteboard, bulletin boards
- big ol' teacher's desk
- two empty file cabinets, 2 file cabinets with unit plans in them
- TV/VCR combo
- 4 computers
i picked up my key today. i'll be spending some significant time playing in the classroom over the next few weeks, urinating on the walls and such.
in other non-classroom-related news:
- to mark the 7-day anniversary of his death, hamster participated in "hamster shot-put" activity in backyard. this is especially good, because BeagleBaker was nosing around and scratching at the hamster's bedroom door fairly persistently.
- StupidBoy has not called since i've been back home. he's fired. seriously. until he calls. shut it, i'm kidding. he's fired for real. maybe i'll go after PizzaBoy.
- movie critiques: points to catwoman for trying to have a strong, black, female lead character, double points for making her sexy and strong, negative points for the boring script. on the reverse side, bourne supremacy had a decent script and decent acting, but the camera work was absolute shit and totally took away from the film's effectiveness.
- JuicyJake crapped on floor AGAIN!!!! i now own my brother's soul, as he was home when it occured and ignored it - AGAIN - until i cleaned it up so that i could breathe in the house.
JuicyJake (he would be "shits") is resting on the leash of BeagleBaker (the "giggles" component). off to stop the massacre that will occur if i can't separate the two.
