Hello. I haven't come here for a long time, but a friend sent me a newspaper article about the Roma in eastern and central europe and I thought of the szpo wrongs and was hoping that someone who knows me and knows them can call me or email me with their email address. Peace to you all!

big j I haven't been here for a while, but I ain't got your number and I was wondering how you and the wife were doing and how Hungarian prep was coming along. I also found out yesterday that I am going back to Hungary - just for the summer, not for a year. I'll be teaching Hungarian border guards. Anyhow - I hope you're well. (and everyone else. Sup) When do you arrive in Magyarorszag? I'll be there until August 10.

On tuesday I went to the teacher store to buy poster supplies for my kids. I raved and raved about the construction paper crayons (they are very nice). The woman in line before me and the clerk asked me what age I teach. "Oh, they're 17." Blank stares. Who says 17 year olds shouldn't color - especially when they have the option of using very cool crayons? I think I'm going to give them for christmas presents this year. Peace to you all on this fine Thursday.

My kids surprised me with a cake today. I told them I would've cried, except that I'm not a punk. Needless to say, we didn't end up covering the Japanese Internment today. How did I get so lucky? I frickin' love my job.

reasons why today I feel incompetent: -I have no cookies, or at least cannot find them - I had to check (and re-do) my math three times while doing the monthly attendance summary for the students in my advisory -I have a dictionary open on my lap to check the spelling of both "incompetent" and "attendance" reasons why today I feel glad: -I have completed the monthly summary -my students gave me a giant birthday card "to the coolest teacher ever" (one of the really huge ones) with messages from most of the 75 of them; my favorite being: "to: 1 bad ass chick Quit tricking off" um, dude, I don't think you can write that on your history teacher's birthday card right above the principal's birthday wish. I don't think sanyone has told me to quit "trickin off" since I was in high school spending time with a young man of ill-repute. Dang. But I laughed. I love the little punks, I have to say, and I feel so blessed to actually love my job and be happy to come to work in the morning. Life is good.

time to admit that I don't know what cookies are or where they are or who stole them from the cookie jar. internet explorer.

wags, she's in my prayers.
