We're truly back in the building for "captivity days" this coming Tuesday, but today helped kickstart my professional mode. I try to keep teaching thoughts out of my head for much of the summer (and am often not successful), but that becomes more and more difficult as the school year approaches. At least my teaching nightmares haven't started as early as they have in the past. Thus far I haven't even had one (that I can remember), although who knows what tonight might bring.
It's strange that my summer is simmering down and the school year is spooling up just as Katrina and Peter show up (almost exactly 24 hours from when I'm writing this). It's going to be an interesting couple of weeks.
