The more I work with legitimately cool, interesting kids the more firmly I know I was a nerdy kid. And not nerdy in the “it’s hip to be square” way; I mean nerdy as it was originally intended, both awkward and embarrassing.

Um, since when has Mason had a bike share program?! I discovered this Patriot bike share bike station at the campus Starbucks today.

Graduate school assignments went out today for NYCTF.

IF ANYTHING WERE POSSIBLE I’D LIKE TO BE ABLE TO IN REAL TIME  MIND TEXT A PERSON A GIF INSTEAD OF HAVING TO COMMUNICATE. THEN I WOULD HAVE SENT SOMEONE THIS. 

IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE WE COULD MIND TEXT AND SENT PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE GIFS AS WE WALKED AWAY. IS THIS THE FUTURE? 

THE CONSEQUENCES PROBABLY WOULD BE NEGATIVE BUT THE SATISFACTION MIGHT OUTWEIGH THEM. 

CONSIDER ME A VISIONARY. 

I’ve got 3 weekends left in VA. 

I had a dream last night that I had to go back to my old job. I stared at the spreadsheets and fumbled around in my desk drawers. I forgot about meetings because I didn’t check my outlook calendar. Basically it was an actual nightmare. I woke up right after I remembered in my dream that I no longer worked in an office. I was like, “Hey WAIT A MINUTE…. Why am I here?!” 

So happy to be in education.

This can also apply to elementary school students.

So timely. Especially considering yesterday’s poop on the floor meeting.

There was a meeting today about finding the culprit behind the SECOND poop on the floor incident in the 6th grade boys’ bathroom.
