House for Sale

I am literally sitting in my car, with my cat, in a parking lot, grading papers because our house is being shown to some potential buyers. I bought an ice cream cone, but Fitzy didn't  want any, so I ate it by myself. Hopefully I don't get arrested for loitering.
Anyway, I really enjoyed reading all of the blog posts this quarter. I'm so lucky to know so many awesome, talented kids and I'm so happy I get to spend my days teaching you things. Fitzgerald just piped up from the backseat and says he wants to meet you all sometime. He doesn't understand why he can't come to school, too. Crap, there's a group of children approaching my car. I look like some crazy, homeless, cat loving kidnapper. Better find a new spot to grade in!

Flaws?!

I think my biggest flaw, in complete honesty, is how sensitive I am. I always try to do the right thing and do it perfectly, and when I don't or can't, I feel like a huge failure. Then again, sensitivity isn't always a bad thing. It allows me to relate to the people around me and always guarantees that I will try my hardest to do everything correctly the first time. I sometimes take the things that people say too much to heart, but honestly, that's just who I am! Just like Fahs goes around BREAKING OTHER PEOPLE'S OWL FIGURINES. He can't help it that he's heartless and has no consideration for the preservation of porcelain animal statues. It's just who he is. And Hudson, she can't help that she's a vampire who thrives from living in the dark surrounded by her spider friends! She just can't help being undead. And that is ok. #I'mSensitiveAndIKnowIt
