Why is it than on Monday's I can never get my act together. I swear I spent the whole morning running around. I can't even tell you what I did but from the moment that I walked in the door to the time that I started to teach my class today, I have been a woman on a mission. I guess the fact that my office is on the third floor, and I had many things to do in the office on the third floor, in addition to the fact that I had to run back and forth. AAAHHAHHAHHHH!!!!

Anyway, the big haircut yesterday did not happen. By the time we raced all the way there, they were running over an hour late and I could not believe it. I refused to wait, as I thought that they should have at least made an attempt to call me to alert me. I have been a faothful customer for four years. NO LONGER. I drop some good cash in there as well. I guess I will have to drop it somewhere else.

Have had a great conversation with the monsters this morning. One of the girls brough in an article that discussed research that suggested that Men listened with only half their brain. DO NOT GET EXICTED. That is not what I was teaching them. We were examining Media Literacy strategies, as this is the most crucial thing that we need to be doing at this time.

(I swear to you that one of the hosts on CNN yesterday commented on how interesting it was to see propaganda developping on the part of the Iraq government. I mean of all people to be commenting on propaganda. How ironinc is that.)

Anyway, back to the conversation with the kids. They really had great comments, and we concluded that the real purpose of the research was to examine the rebuilding of language aquisition of men vs women after a stroke. The title was misleading. It was a great activity and hopefully they will start to look at what the media presents to them and question the validity of the arguement.

Enjoying the sun today (+14 I believe), and have a worn a skirt for the first time in a long time. Man my legs are white. I can't wait for soccer season to start. I need my daily tanning session.
