Random Questions
Question #1 was actually about my iPod, which I posted here. Enjoy!
2) If you could meet anyone on this earth, who would it be?
Maybe I'm strange, but I really don't have a desire to meet anyone I haven't already. I'm excited to see who will come into my life in the future, and I am super interested in seeing what kind of students I will have next school year. Other than that, I don't really care to meet any famous people because to me they are just like everyone else.
3) Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 23, give me line 17.
..."other workers looked away." From "Minding Frankie" by Maeve Binchy
4) What do you think about most?
I would have to say that I think the most about lesson plans and how the next day at school is going to work. I am constantly "rehearsing" in my mind.
5) What does your latest text message from someone else say?
It was an encouragement from an acquaintance that we all "drop the ball" occasionally and to not be upset about it. Her daughter and mine are in the same class at school and she has helped me tremendously this year as we transition into a two parent working family and I can't seem to get my head on straight when it comes to school functions for my daughters.
6) Do you sleep with or without clothes on?
Since becoming sick last April I have been very sensitive to the cold and feel my best when I am not chilled at all. I have slept with heavy pajamas on so that Daniel doesn't boil in his sleep.
7) What's your strangest talent?
I don't really have any strange talents that I can think of.
8) Women.... (finish the sentence); Men.... (finish the sentence)
Women are no different than men; Men are no different than women. Although I don't actually believe this, I really don't have huge generalizations, either. Both sexes can have their frustrations, but the more I work with the public the more I realize I just see people.
9) Ever had a poem or song written about you?
Yes, as a matter of fact I have. In 9th grade my boyfriend and his friends played a song in our school talent show. The song was written about me. Fortunately it was a pleasant one!
10) When is the last time you played the air guitar?
I don't tend to play air guitar. I do, however, like to play air drums. My poor steering wheel sometimes! After a particularly hard day at work I like to crank up a CD I've made for the car and let loose. I must look like a maniac to the drivers next to me, but I don't mind.

Super Bowl or Reading?

| Musing Mondays February 6, 2012 |
I'm joining Should Be Reading for Musing Mondays. Sorry this is a little late!
This week’s musing asks…
Did you do any reading in lieu of watching the football game Sunday or were you foregoing reading to watch the game? If you read a book (or books) what did you choose?
I did come home and read, though. I just started "Matched" by Ally Condie. My students have been reading this book, one after the other, so I thought I would figure out what all the fuss is about. It's a pretty good book and I love being able to talk with my students about something they enjoy. "Matched" is part of a trilogy, and I will definitely be checking out the rest of the books in the series.
Here is a blurb from Amazon.com:
For Cassia, nothing is left to chance--not what she will eat, the job she will have, or the man she will marry. In Matched, the Society Officials have determined optimal outcomes for all aspects of daily life, thereby removing the "burden" of choice. When Cassia's best friend is identified as her ideal marriage Match it confirms her belief that Society knows best, until she plugs in her Match microchip and a different boy’s face flashes on the screen. This improbable mistake sets Cassia on a dangerous path to the unthinkable--rebelling against the predetermined life Society has in store for her. As author Ally Condie’s unique dystopian Society takes chilling measures to maintain the status quo, Matchedreminds readers that freedom of choice is precious, and not without sacrifice.--Seira Wilson
