OMG (as my kids would say). It’s finally here. Or rather, it’s almost here. I am thisclose to summer and its accompanying promise of a return to normal, adult life.
To put it in my favorite form, here’s what stands between me and a beach in Cabo San Lucas:
- 5 “real” (as in teaching) school days
- 2 days of eighth grade graduation events
- 72 portfolios to grades and comments to write
- 1 final Daily column (sob!)
- 1 Faculty Luncheon to sit through (all while hoping there are no comments directed at my decision not to return next year)
- 1 HUGE term paper for my Stanford class, American Women Writers of the 19tgh Century
The countdown is on.
