Only 8 more days and we will hit the 2 month mark for this deployment. How quick did that move. I am glad February is over. The month was totally useless.
Today was day one of state assessment testing. I think if you had asked me to watch paint dry or proctor state assessments - I would have a seriously difficult decision on my hands. I guess the upside is that I am not really teaching anything for a couple of days. But the days are wasted - I am trying to get myself going on this Teacher Work Sample but it is jerky. Jerky as in start and stop, not jerky like an a hole is jerky. I can type a little bit. But then I have to get up to check students, at which point I have forgotten what the heck I was typing about.
As for reading news - I am about halfway through Dark Tower 4. I am in the midst of when Roland tells his backstory. I was much more intrigued as they passed through Topeka. King does a pretty good job of describing Gage Park, the zoo, rose garden, and the train. It was part of the story that I could really visualize. See - being sent to Kansas hasn't been all that bad. At least I can say I have been somewhere that Stephen King wrote about.
I think I will make this the end of the post. I want to catch 24, take out Silvio, and then go to bed. I am keeping my fingers crossed that for the first time in a while I will actually go to bed when I say I am going to bed. Anyone want to take any bets?
