Not ready for the fall
Just a quick note of education etiquette.
If you are having a conversation with a teacher during the summer break, don't ask them when they start back.
Just like repressed memories, a sudden jolt can bring back all the pain and struggle. Nobody wants a teacher screaming hoarsely for hours on end, twitching on the ground, right?
I'm already beginning to look forward to teaching next year, but only in a theoretical way, a bit like the way I am looking forward to going back to the gym.
I was sitting in the Imax theatre with Mr. HellsKitchen, ready to watch Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I loved the movie, and like Willy Wonka, would have been much happier if there had been no kids in the theater.
I'll be ready in September, but until then, please keep them away from me. I don't want to use the patented teacher stare.

The Golden Ticket of the evening was when you told the wise-acre teen seated right in front of us: "That was very funny, NOW CUT IT OUT!" during the Coming Attractions. It pretty much worked in time to cut his commentary in time for the Feature.
I'll have to remember your strategy... A far better approach than the rolled up Pottery Barn catalog idea that I came up with!
Twas great hanging with one of the first Bloggers I ever read, and the first Blogger I ever met...
Derek, too! Tell him, "Howdy!"
Thanks for a fun evening!
