Finals-ly!

Finals start today. I really hate the academic calendar for this year. We start finals today, then it’s Saturday, then it’s Sunday, and then we have Memorial Day. Well, at least the momentum wasn’t killed (yeah, right). I guess some students will consider it a stay of execution. Unfortunately, it is just a stay and not a pardon. Heads will roll.

What I really hate is the fact that I’ll be working during the break. You guys know just how crazy that last day for teachers is, so I’m going to make sure that I’ve got all of my ducks in a row. And if that means a sunny Monday in my hole of a classroom, then so be it.

Still, I just know that something really cool is going to happen while I’ve got my nose to the grindstone. You watch. LeBron James is going to knock on my door with extra tickets to an extreme stuntman and fireworks show where the grand finale is jumping through rings of fire over 50 Elvis impersonators, and he needs someone to pick up his good friend, Willie Nelson.
