Oh goodness. Is Zeph an aspiring Brown Coat Man Whore? If so you are more than welcome. Seems our ranks need more good fellas like yourself.

I got more than five hours sleep last night! Woo Hoo! Don't know what to do with myself. Seems I have some research for down time today. I introduced my buddy John to Three Gun shooting competitions and he is all about it. Great. I have created a monster.

IT'S ALIVE!!!

Howdy all. Seems everyone is in a good mood today. Yay for all of you.

Zeph: YAY! Glad to hear you've found someone (or that she's found you). *volunteers to help RIMG if needed*

MsG: YIKES! *hugs* Sorry to hear that this week is bad for you. End of quarter nuttiness?

MrG: Yep, 'tis very cool. I still can't belive it, it was that mind-blowing. ('Course, the kids deserve the true credit, since these are the ones that are determined to get the 'A'...)

RIMG: Hope the doctor found what the behavioral issue could be, and can provide some solutions for you folks with Zachary.

*glomps Neko*

*does the secret BCMW handshake thingy with NVG*

Zeph would indeed make a fine addition to our ManWhore ranks. ;D

Neko, they still don't know, but we have another meeting with her next Friday to answer more questions and such. The one today was actually just a phone interview with questions, and Ami took care of it, since they called at 10. We lucked out that she was home, because she has several other appointments today (her BF has Thuradays off, so she schedules them all on Thursdays.

*snuggles MsG*

Shane: W.W.V.M.D? Of course! What Would Vic Mackey Do? He'd plant some evidence, then go rough up the suspect and force a confession!

MsG have you been keeping up with How I Met Your Mother? I just watched the latest episode last night. I think it's the best of the season so far.

MsG: Yep, been there, done that...now dealing with the "why is my child's grades...?" aftermath of the report card.
Long day today....2 meetings this afternoon. One was a "voluntary" *cough* mentoring meeting (with homework...) *bites tongue and cheeks to avoid ranting about the lack of time to do everything plus the new thing that's just added on* The other was on "Understanding by Design" that the school is doing...
As for the students today: Had to point out the lab, then threaten to cancel it if they didn't behave as a class, or if it was individuals to make it the individual plus their group being punished if there were safety issues today. Went well overall today, partially because of the carrot and stick method.

NVG: Spoke too soon. Am at the point where I did a girly snap at one of my co-workers, (so tired I can't do addition of 1, 2, 3, and 4s) and in front of the principal, no less *whoops* Honestly, though, too overwhelmed and overloaded at this point to care.

RIMG: *HUGS* Glad to hear that Ami could answer the interview questions. At least you're one step closer to possibly finding your answers for Zach. *fingers crossed that things work out well for you Jimi*

*sigh* Gorramnit, I need a few real-life browncoat-y hugs today...*hugs RIMG, Zephyr, NVG, MrG, Tristan-in-absentia, Magda-kidnapped-from-the-bar-and-grill, MsG, Emma (kidnapped also from the bar-and-grill), Zeek, RugBug, and whomever else happens by for a hug*

jeez Neko you killed the thread with all those hug koodies.

At least it's Friday people. That should get you motivated and happy. Maybe even happy enough to post.

I think we need to save that quote somewhere. Just a few snips in the right places and it sure sounds like you're all for this method of teaching.

Heh...one of my Worst.Ever. experiences subbing (aside from the continuation high school...and maybe junior high metal shop) was one of those inspiring, movie type teachers...which despite what you say, I'm assuming you are. You know, the one that all the kids love? Maybe the kids aren't all getting As, but they show up and are respectful?

Well, his class was ESL and some pretty known unruly types. Yet they were perfect children for him. Would do just about anything he asked. I knew caused I had observed in his room many times as a student teacher. But eesh, take the teacher out of the room and it was a nightmare. There is generally low respect for sub anyway, and when the regular teacher is listened to and followed out of pure respect, it's a recipe for trouble. I never subbed in his class again (not b/c I wasn't asked, but because I wasn't into self-torture).
