Word After Word

New Semester Begins in 24 Hours

I love teaching and I’m ready for classes to begin. Teaching organizes me.

Every semester there is one class to which I give my entire heart and soul; I spend months planning it, looking forward to it. I live for it. There is another class that takes, against my will, my heart and soul from me. And then there’s a third class, every time, that is low-impact and delightful and we are happy and goofy and bounding.

I always think I know which will be which.

    So, I just figured out it’s Friday. Not Monday. I woke up thinking it was Monday. All excited because school is starting.

    Now I know it’s not 24 hours away. I did this as a kid, too. I get ready for school way ahead of time. Way ahead.

    As will I, Krista. It’s too early to tell!
