Discopants and Haircuts

I apologize, especially to Dr Faustroll, for not having written in awhile. I am in a little over my head at work right now. No, seriously I am. I am basically teaching 150% (give or take a few p points). Plus this place is new to me, and my language skills are still lacking. Add to that my heroin and drinking habit, plus severe anal itching and you have a busy guy!

I am, essentially, working my ass off as a first year teacher to gain points and show my skillz . It looks good right now but you never know. I am hoping for the best. It’s a nice school with nice people. The kids are pretty good too.

Ben Stein has he quintessential post about the US right now.

-I truly believe that this sums it up.

This dude has 5 ideas about what the educational system needs. I agree. We deal a system to the kids that is nothing like the real world. (Disclaimer: I know that every teacher has their ‘theory’ but I have also realized that most of those theories are never minded. )

My Grandmother’s Sister died today. I called my Mom on Skype to say hi. She was at BJ’s shopping. When she got home I had too much to say and never got a chance to talk about my Great Aunt Kathleen. I am such an asshole.

This is what happens in life my friends. you get so wrapped up in the shit that you begin to forget what is important. Then you see some dumb-ass movie and somehow you feel back to ‘yourself’ for a little while, like you have ‘been spoken to’ . Then it is back to the shit my friends.

I have been observed, tested and marketed. I understand what ‘they’ are trying to do. Fuck them. I still like Buffalo Tom and the Doobie Brothers.
