BedTime

I should be in bed right now. It is almost 1 o'clock am and I must be up by 6:00. I am also under the influence of sleeping pills which are screaming at me to go to sleep. If I had someone here to listen to me, I would probably spill my guts. Thank God I'm alone. At any rate, my apologies to those who haven't made it into the Wednesday at Eric's site yet. I am sure there are very good reasons and I should not be so presumptuous as to judge their motives. We miss you and will be willing to help at any point in the process. Just ask, please. Now that I have that off my chest, I can retire gracefully. So Good night sweet prince. And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest. Nite all.....later....doc

1st Day of School

Do you remember the night before the first day of school? I not only remember those days, I am still living them out in actuality. It's after 3am and I am wide awake. It would sure be nice either to have someone to talk to or else to be in Maine all by my lonesome. I'll be fine as long as I can keep my little charges behind closed doors doing "teaching" stuff. The problem comes when I have to go out into the real world and deal with things that have to be dealt with. This always was the problem, and was mostly responsible for my retiring from the public schools. But apparently I can't get away from it. So I sit here all atwitter, butterflies in stomach, and a very real sense of dread about me. It won't be long now. Let's get on with it, ok? I'll get back to you tomorrow and fill you in on all the gory details, if there are any. Until then.....later....doc
