There is a saying that "You should take one day at a time, but lately several days have attacked me at once". Yup, yesterday was one of those days. I have been trying to get to a meeting with other deans for two days now, and so far I have had no luck. Yesterday got bombed by a parent coming in - she has been threatened twice by our students, so that had to take priority. Its just kids saying my mum will bash your mum, rather than students threatening her directly, but it is still totally out of line. And a student assulted one of his class mates in front of me, and another student altogether had to be suspended, so there was the paperwork for that. And then there was the usual stuff to do at home. I need to write a song for an assignment I have due for professional development, so that was the final relaxation for the night. It is pretty easy to write lyrics, if I actually open my mouth and sing. I'm not saying they are much good, but they are there, so they can certainly be improved. The song can't be too awful, its sticking in my mind. Therefore, it must be singable. Next trick, is I have to record it.
anyway, I suspect today might be as busy as yesterday, so I'm off to get a jump on it.
