So What Did I Do Today?
by Belinda Roddie
So what did I do today? Well, I botched
a high five between two students after
I sat in traffic for three hours and watched
the time flutter by like chicken feathers -
all while wearing my brand new, slick black suit
(which, by the way, had to be sewn up at
the left pocket of the pants. Yay). Well, shoot:
I missed a class, but hey, at least I had
some understanding bosses. Then, that night,
I met parents of students who expressed
enthusiasm for my class. All right,
perhaps a better ending was addressed
for this long, dragging "saga" of a day,
while I can finally now hit the hay.
