Came home last night to
Came home last night to Sparky watching popular tv. Watching Boston Commons proves that nothing on television is real. On this drama about a public school, teachers have perfect bodies, amazing lessons involving falling cars, listen to classical music, and solve problems over free coffee in the teachers' lounge.
For those who like to watch those magicians reveal their secrets, here's a behind-the-scenes look at a public school: THERE IS NO FREE COFFEE. If there was free coffee, it wouldn't be drinkable. Even those people in the Fellows who started with nice bodies have flabbed out or scrawnied out. Eventually I would love to do spectacular experiments, but I'm currently having to buy my own chalk. Classical music is shuttled to the background when teachers write comments like "Your a good student!" on English papers.
Daphne said it perfectly tonight as we were leaving our university class. Only three more days this week, then three days next week. I can make it. I can make it. I can make it.
