No more morning sickness! No more morning sickness! This past week was really good. I haven't been sick since Monday, so I'm pretty sure that whole phase is over. Now, I can get more things accomplished at work (including a mountain of grading I have yet to touch) and be a nicer teacher. My poor students were so good when I wasn't feeling well. I've got some good kids.

This week, I'm proud to report, I have not killed any small animals.

I was sharing my dead dog story with a class and I was telling them about karma (you do something bad, something bad happens to you. you do something good, something good happens to you) ((not that I really buy into the whole theory)) and I was explaining how I killed the dog and then got bit by a spider. One girl was giving me a really hard time and making me feel bad. She then got up to sharpen her pencil and on the way back to her seat swatted someone's planner off their table. As she sat down, she missed her chair and ended up on the floor. KARMA!

Tomorrow, I'm teaching all day then off to Stubenville for a meeting and I won't be home until 10ish. Maybe I should just get a hotel room in Carrollton and sleep in. Or, maybe I should just call off sick. Or, maybe I should just suck it up and do my job like I'm supposed to. I guess we'll see how I feel Tuesday morning!
