The Sun Is Out (redux)

Yes it is, and that is a good thing after the past several soggy days. It was a nice day for a funeral, if there is such a thing. The folks here laid Ralph the VPO to rest today, so we let out at either 1:30 or 1:45, depending on who you were listening to. That was a little screwy, and my jr high math kids were unbelievably unfocused, and that's saying something...any way, it was a quiet day, and another one off the week's calendar, which is always a good thing.

I got called an "unqualified liberal socialist educator" by someone who has no idea who I am today. Nothing like a compliment to make a fella's day...I did a follow-up interview with the reporter from KTUU in Anchorage who talked to me back in the summer. The piece was run this weekend on the news, because a couple of people mentioned seeing it this morning. There is a print version on the station website, and an anonymous type offered the above wisdom. He (?) also expressed the wish that I bought a round trip ticket. Nice. Kind of a dick, if ya ask me.

Anyway, the sunlight is streaming through the window, and I think I'll check out the football game on my computer. Later on, I need to find some writing work for the little charmers. A good day in the 49th state.
