(no subject)

I'm wondering right now if the old-style, God-punishes-wickedness type reasoning might be true after all.

I took yesterday as a mental health day, enjoyed it thoroughly, and came back with enough energy to finish the week. Then I get to school and discover that my knees are giving me trouble. THey don't hurt, really - I just wonder if they're going to collapse and land me face-first on the linoleum. And there's this odd clicking sound. . . Oh well. What's one more (legitimate) sick day this week?

I can punish my students by getting the same supply teacher in for them. They hated her, but she got work out of them. Trying to get my kids to hand in a math journal is like pulling crocodile teeth - not only is it painful and troublesome for the croc, you're likely to get bitten.
