This week I'm thankful for...
- going to the movies on a school night
- the smell of steam from the dryer mixed with the scent of rain
- rainy Saturdays perfect for curling up to read
- my former students (now pre-teens) who come to my classroom after school to talk about The Hunger Games trilogy. I try to convince them to join Team Peeta. They roll their eyes and say things like "Of course, you'd like Peeta. You just don't get Gale." Then I kick them out of my classroom for blasphemy.
- falling asleep in the middle of a good book and dreaming about it
- my new umbrella that doesn't go tulip in the wind and rain
- This morning while getting ready for work, I hit the shuffle jackpot. You know it's going to be a good day when your iPhone spits out this delicious combination of songs:
- Future of Forestry: Colors in Array
- Stevie Wonder: Uptight
- U2: Beautiful Day
- Bob Dylan: Buckets of Rain
- Joe Anderson: Hey, Jude
- Joan Jett & The Blackhearts: Love Is All Around
- Richard Shindell: Are You Happy Now?
many things to be thankful for...glad you liked the Temple Grandin post...she is my hero for the time being.
ReplyDeleteI really have to read The Hunger Games . However, from what I gather, I don't think I want to fall asleep and dream about it.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet surprise to see Richard Shindell in your shuffle list.:-)
