Deck the (teachers who ask for passes in the) Halls

SETof 3 ice blue

This is gonna be a convoluted post; I’ll warn you ahead of time.? It will be kind of like one of those TV shows where the story line is so full of “intrigue” that it doesn’t really have a plot, and you can’t figure out who the characters are supposed to be so you just sit there and half watch with a confused look on your face.? (Okay, that would probably be more me than you.? Which is why I never watch TV.? You probably would have no problem understanding things and would just pray I didn’t ask stupid questions during the good parts.? But I digress.)? I’ll provide plenty of footnotes so you (er, I) can keep track.*

Long story short:**

Today was Christmas.***? My dad (who knows best), got his soon-to-be-out-of-work-teacher (me) just what she needed most: a Student.? BOY was I surprised.? I would have been fine with a sweater or bath products, but hey.****? Said Student and I had a great time reminiscing about the Good Old Days***** when he and Juvenile Delinquent sat together in my class.******? Turns out Student lives right behind my dad, and has been coming over regularly for guitar lessons.*******? We deemed him a Nice Boy, and sentenced him to play my daughter at air hockey (who before today had never lost to anyone in the state of Ohio, and has been quite unbearable about it).

…and a lovely time was had by all : ) ………………………….. C.

* cause I kinda want to see how many asterisks I can use in a single post : )? (no worries; it’s just a phase)
** Don’t you LOVE it when people say “Long story short…” and then proceed to give you a long story??? Me TOO.
*** Today was New Years.? But since everybody had the dreaded Pink Eye during Christmas, we decided to postpone Christmas to the next available holiday.
**** He also got me a HD gift card, and a free “phone-a-dad” request for help on a home improvement project.? (you know me soo well… : ) )
***** which weren’t old at all, and neither is he
****** JD was simultaneously one of two students in my teaching career that came verrry close to punching my lights out, and also one of an elite handful who has repeatedly come back to tell me how great I was.? enjoy the irony.? I know I have.
******* …and free food
******** Student – 1; Daughter – 3.? It’s a start.
