Happy St. Patricks Day

Today was another inservice day. Was kinda interesting. I wore green... likely the first time ever that I have wore green on purpose for this silly day (actually changed when i remembered what today was, and did you know the original colour associated with this day was blue?). Then I found out that teachers are supposed to also wear green tomorrow to classes... anyway, I hope all of you are enjoying your green beers, and for those of you in CW, hope you are enjoying the laughs.

I bought my first Inuit art yesterday, a soapstone polar bear. Its pretty cool, made from unique greyish soapstone from the Arctic Bay area. I tried to take a picture to show, but the reflection off of it doesn't work, and its not bright enough for no flash. Anyway, hope y'all aren't expecting souvenirs, holy expensive batman-and this was bought directly from the artist. The Co-op in town sells a wide variety of 'things' made from local 'mediums' (bone, soapstone, ivory, etc) but they are about 3-5 times more expensive than buying direct from the artist.

Well folks, I should be lesson planning for tomorrow... have my first evaluation on Friday and need to have a lesson plan ready to go for it tomorrow.

What i'm listening to:
Missouri - David Nail
Spirit of a Storm - Kenny Chesney
Glitter in the Air - P!nk
What i learned today:
cold fx doesn't pack itself...
Complete the sentence:
There you are, sitting in the garden...
