Hello... Perdita???

Seriously! Where the H-E double hockey sticks is my Home Assessment Report? I'm getting kind of irritated waiting, because I know nothing is happening with it. People just are letting it sit around, forgetting about it. Crappy! This is my life! I want to keep moving!
I gave away Felix. I was really conflicted about it. I love Felix, but the eating of the baseboards and tearing up of my carpet was too much. And I just don't have time to train a new dog. But he's so sweet too. You know, when he's not wrecking things. He went to a cattle farm with one of my students, so he's back to what he knows, and probably loving it.
I brought my dog to work day today. And I'm watching Jay Leno right now and apparently it's national take your dog to work day in the States. Hey, I had no idea. My kids loved having Davis in though. He just wandered quietly, getting loving where he could, and then just falling asleep beside my desk. The kids couldn't believe how quiet and calm he was. Good dog. I did invest a lot of time in him though, so it makes sense he'd be good. Yeah, giving Felix away sucks, but it was a good call.
We went to the monster truck and demolition derby here in town today. Jonah loved it. I ran into kids and parents everywhere I looked. The fate of a small town teacher I guess. I realized though after talking to another teacher today, that I really need to be careful, because while parents are friendly, they aren't actually all like that. In fact some of those smiling faces would just as well stab you in the back. I say and do stupid things all the time. My self control needs work because if something goes in my head, it probably comes out my mouth. I'd better watch myself.
