Back to school shopping

I am somehow very confident that I am not the only teacher in the city to head directly to a liquor store after work today for a little back-to-school shopping.  It seemed like the thing to do.

Overall, it was a pretty good day.  The classroom was too hot, but that's almost to be expected at this point.  It's my fifteenth first day of school in my teaching career, so I know I have had better first days and worse ones.  It was pretty good, actually.  For the first time since I started teaching in a computer lab, my classes were not overflowing.  There were no more than thirty kids in any section.  I feel like saying that out loud is the same as announcing that you are watching a baseball pitcher in the midst of a no-hitter, but it was pretty sweet to actually have enough chairs for the students.

I have a few hiccups, of course.  The kids can't log in to the computers, nor will they be able to do so until Thursday, I'm told.  I had to come home and re-work some of the stuff I had on the books for tomorrow and later in the week.  It's all workable, but just a little aggravating.  No matter.  Everything will work out, so it's all good.  I came home with my back to school shopping and made a drink or two before helping Cas out with some cookies for a thing he has at work tomorrow.  It's all under control.  My website is updated; his cookies are baked and I am ready to go to sleep.  It's probably time.
