Well, poop. I don't get to go to New York City this summer. I was signed up to go on this history teacher week in the city for free as part of a grant. I was going to room with Amanda and we were set to paint the town red, but the lady in charge decided that since I'm not coming back into the school system next year I'm not eligible. What a bummer.... I understand completely, though, and now Amanda's husband Tony will go in my place and that should be fun for them. And actually, I really could use the week to pack. It will make my summer a lot less intense, which is good, and I should be able to spend more time with Jennie when she comes out in July.

Today was the official last day of school and thus this is the first summer evening. Graduation is tomorrow and just three days of inservice next week (which I desperately need in order to get my room packed up!). Then, I am finished at RCHS. How surreal... How exciting!
