So, when I apologized to the fourth hour class, they laughed at me and told me that although I thought of myself as highly intimidating, I was really more like a “chipmunk standing up there.”

“I see,” I said, coolly. Then they tried to make me laugh by telling me they'd skipped their ADD medication again and making bizarre noises. This is their way of making up.

Last night I took Shef to the JV hockey game, which many of them played in, and a few made a special effort to wave at him. This was a huge thrill for the almost-three-year-old, so I suppose I’m grateful.

In other news, I am now officially a faster half-marathoner than I was when I was thirteen-years-old. By a whopping 75 seconds over 13.1 miles. Wahoo.

I looked for you at the race yesterday but you must have sped by so quickly that I missed you.

Well done.
