So, Buford my printer is officially dead. The tech morticians took him away (and it took more than one). My students have been rejoicing because it has postponed such things as tests and quizzes. I have the craziest story though.One morning last week, a printer mysteriously appeared on our front porch with an attached note indicating that the printer was a donation to the teacher's cause. It is incredible! What student does something like that. I am blown away by the whole thing. Yet, I didn't feel right giving a brutal quiz freshly printed off of the phantom printer the day it arrived on our front porch.
It is true that being a teacher can be a brutal job sometimes but occasionally there is a glimpse of what my students are capable of and what how they want to live their lives. I am fortunate. Anyhow, the new printer "Agent 006" is named after this year's senior class (even though Agent 006 died in one of the Bond films).
In related news, we have 4 weeks of school left... (perhaps it is not good for teachers to rejoice but I am looking forward to a bit of a break).

I'm excited...but not at the same time about school ending. Catch 22 type thing. Anyways, you suck, btw. I logged into my space and saw I had 7 new comments!!!! And six of them were blank ones from you. Well at least you commented (more than I can say for most). Have a great break and see you back at school
