2. How was my day yesterday? When I got in the car, after walking through the snow, I called Urban Oasis to see if they had a masseuse available. After a miserable ride in, 30 minutes of Swedish massage from Beth and 30 minutes in the hot tub, it was a whole new world. After a comfort omelet at S&S Deli, I went home and was so relaxed I went to bed early. It actually lasted into today.
3. When you’re telling someone what a strong first impression they made on you, remember to say “indelible impression,” not “inedible impression.”
4. I have discovered how to avoid having to fight with the dogs to get into the house. It involves throwing a ball into the corner of the backyard and moving quickly.
5. I am watching “Faith Rewarded,” and there’s a great quote from Curt Schilling before he got shelled in Game 1 of the 2004 ALCS. “I can’t think of any scenario more enjoyable than making 50,000 people in New York shut up.”
6. So I am taking five other teachers and 10 students to South Carolina to build Houses for Habitat for Humanity at the end of next week (wow, it’s getting close). So I mentioned today that I would be handling the shopping and cooking and referred to myself as the “Camp Daddy.” One of my kids immediately says, “Can we call you that?” Now, this particular young lady, who is simplest one of the greatest kids I have ever known in my 15 years of teaching, happens to be the daughter of the local DA. “No, you may *not* call me that,” I said.
