Do not ask me about Wednesday.
I think we'll just leave it at that.
Today was a 1/2 day, and I spent it watching the first 75 minutes of "The Princess Bride" with three different classes. Surprisingly, not a lot of my students have seen it.
Conversation with a freshman (during the Wesley/Inigo fencing scene)
Student: Ms. T, are they speaking Spanish?
Me: No, they're speaking fencing.
Student: Well, why isn't it subtitled then?
[PAUSE]
Me: They're speaking English, but they're talking about fencing.
Student: Oh.
And, God bless one of my other freshmen. I saw him in the cafeteria today during the Freshmen Pizza Party (I didn't have his class today). Conversation as follows:
Student: Ms. T, did you bring in "Star Wars?"
Me: We don't have class together today, C; you're going home after this.
Student: Darn it. Yours was the only class I was looking forward to.
That ALMOST made up for yesterday.
So, after I get home, Dad and I go shopping. We left at approximately 1:45; we did not get home until 5:30 due to traffic, parking garage morons, and a non-functional traffic light at a large intersection in town.
Oh what fun it is to ride.
The polka-muzack Christmas music is back. I'm getting my jingle bell on. Yeah baby.

I'm surprised not many of your students have seen PB. That was a pre-break must all through my years of school but of of course we have established that I'm older than dirt...
