I know, I'm the worst blogger ever.

Well, maybe not ever, but it's pretty bad when I mostly just post myspace surveys instead of real blogs. Here's the rundown:

-Two weeks ago we had semester exams at school. In that week I graded 44 AP English Great Gatsby essays, 44 sets of AP homework questions, 12 English II Count of Monte Cristo projects and movies, 44 sets of AP exam short answers, 44 AP exam essays, 50 sets of English II short answers, 50 English II essays and 21 journalism exams consisting of matching, stories written on deadline and InDesign layouts. Then I still had to get 2nd quarter, exam and 1st semester grades into the office without screwing it up like I did last year.

-That weekend Jon and I were invited to a biker wake at a Moose Lodge in Dearborn. It was one of the weirdest nights of my life. Fun until the drive home where I got totally turned around and a 30 minute drive took an hour and a half and ended with me and Jon getting pissed off at each other. Things are fine now, but I'm not jumping in line for any more biker wakes in the immediate future.

-Monday was a day off. Jon and I went ice skating (my first time in 2 years), ate enchilada leftovers, watched The Devil Wears Prada and hit Conor's for some trivia. Brian joined us and that was a lot of fun.

-The rest of the week at school was semi-madness with the start of the 2nd semester. My 7th hour basic English II was a nightmare the first day since I had 32 kids in the class (apparently, down from 37!) I freaked out, told the guidance office that this was NOT acceptable (you want me to teach public school sized classes, you pay me a public school sized salary) and they've managed to get it down to 28 which I will happily take over 32.

-Last night was a lot of fun too. Jon, Martin, Greg, Chrysta and I headed to Red Sea for some Etheopian food and then over to Tower for some beer and conversation. 'Twas a good, easy, laid back night which is good, since this week is going to be mad. Tuesday I have an interview with The Detroit Fashion pages (a paying writing job!) for one of their music positions. How cool would that be? Wednesday night I've got my first yoga class (yay), Thursday is guitar night and Friday after school I have to go to a meeting about whether or not we should keep one of the books in our curriculum (who the hell has such a meeting after school on a FRIDAY?) Oh well.

Wish me luck on the interview...i hope i get this!
