Slowly, little by little, gradually, incrementally, I’m beginning to think about starting on my final papers for the end of the term. I’m doing a little bit at a time to avoid the big rush during the last couple of papers, but I’m completely realistic in expecting that there will be a rush this time as well.
Today is my birthday, and we’re going to celebrate my birthday in my last class tonight. Half the students are gone, and anytime more than half the students are missing I usually try to do something else more fun to avoid reteaching a lesson next week. Today we’ll have some cake and play pin the nose on the face (couldn’t find a big donkey). Should be reasonably entertaining.
I made some weird funky soup for lunch, but I don’t think it’ll fly for dinner. Tonight we aren’t doing anything special for dinner – we’ll save that for this weekend.
That’s all for now – gotta run and get ready for school!
