My day started by setting up breakfast for an All-Middle School teacher\u2019s meeting.\u00a0 Noah\u2019s Bagels was very efficient; I was out of there in five minutes.\u00a0 Setup didn\u2019t take much longer.\u00a0 Today, the teachers met in the old retirement center because my church didn\u2019t have adequate wireless coverage, though they really liked the facilities.\u00a0 The retirement center facilities were not great, and as it turned out, their wireless was no better than my church\u2019s.\u00a0 I think the Middle Schools are going to have a hard time finding a venue that can support 70 devices.<\/p>\n
With that done, I went to the district office to turn in my paperwork, and then shop for tonight\u2019s pot luck.\u00a0 Yeah, I\u2019ll be a substitute by Tuesday of next week!<\/p>\n
Most of the afternoon was spent cooking.\u00a0 Fortunately, my kids were home today (Teacher in-service day), so my son helped cook.\u00a0 It would have been a much, much longer process if he had not.\u00a0 In the evening, I went to class with \u201cHare Krishna\u201d enchiladas, and the whole class ate very well while watching a series of student presentations.\u00a0 It seems that everyone in this class is an excellent cook!<\/p>\n
In the late evening, the kids and I watched Jurassic Park, complete with 1998 commercials that I had recorded \u2013 so many now dead companies who were advertising, and look at the size of those cell phones!\u00a0 Film cameras were still being promoted as well.\u00a0 Things have really changed in 14 years!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
