21 fingers are it

Spring Break! Let us all cavort with abandon. ... Or, vacuum our bedroom floors while eating canned pudding, it's all the same to me.

I finally got off my arse and wrote something. "Cut 200 words from it and we'll run it in May," is the response I got. It's not that I think I am an endless font of wisdom, it's just that carving 200 words from it was impossible, unless they didn't want verbs. And I know how to chop a piece, even a piece of my own - I used to run the CHOP IT OFF! CHOP IT ALL OFF!! desk.

Dilemmas.

Vacation is nice. Side note: I went in to work on the first day of it and saw so many other teachers' cars there that I momentarily panicked and wondered if we really were on break. Maybe there is more to this 15.5 hour crap than I thought.
