Tired Tuesday.

Well, Tuesday wasn't that tired, I am just tired now. I have gotten up at 6 a.m. the past two days on purpose. Sure, most people really do wake up at 6, but for me that is early. I usually sleep until about 6:50. It has been hard but worth it. It seems like I am actually a little more awake during the day. I have learned though that I am pretty much non-coherent the first half hour I am awake. It is werid.

I am dreading Friday. I have to present in our Teacher Quality(TQ) day. We are reading a book about Professional Learning Communities and I get to present the second chapter. I have a hard time with "education" books. They are boring and not fun. It is going to be hard to come up with 60 minutes worth of stuff to talk about. I think I can do it though! (Or my usual philosophy, "fake it 'til you make it!")

I got a package from my softball coach this week and I thought I would share a bit of it with you. First, a team photo, then a few pictures of our 2nd place trophy. It was funny when I opened the package during lunch yesterday and as I pulled out the trophy, someone in the room said: "Is that a man on your trophy?" It is not a man but I figure it is just going along the stereotype that all women who play softball are homosexuals. I also was not impressed by the size of the hips because they looked a little big to me. It is another stereotype, all girls who play softball are also fat!




Funny.

Well, that is it for me. Off to sleepiness. Record I know: in bed by ten...weird.

How wonderful to have such great life friends and number 2 place also.

Why don't you incorporate stuff from the seminar in California in your presentation--don't know your chapter--but just your change in how you felt could be funny and take up time if you allowed audience participation.
