For about the last year and a half I’ve been watching the Sunday Comics for good FoxTrot comics to put up in my classroom. Little did I know Bill Amend has been making them since 1988! Holy cow I have a lot of catching up to do!
Apparently there are “treasury” books full of the comics, so I might have to start collecting those. I love that they’re nerdy, about math, computers, video games, and all things geek.
As I was browsing through some older ones, this one caught my eye.
When I came downstairs this morning, it officially felt like Fall. Does that ever happen to you? I know the official first day of Fall is Tuesday or something, but it’s like that exact moment when it feels like the season changed from being hot/summer to cool/fall? It’s still too hot, but I’m ready to light a pumpkin spice candle and decorate in brown/orange leaves.
This year we adopted a new math textbook…which is good and bad. It’s nice because it’s all new, but it’s bad because it is a LOT more work than last year. Everything has to be adapted this year…HW, tests, PowerPoints, etc. It looks like I’ll be dedicating a good couple hours every Sunday to get ready for the coming week. Next year will be loads easier, so at least it’s only one year.
Back to editing slides on one-step equations.
I need to not put so much importance on blog posts. They don’t have to be long or earth shattering…just there. 
I’ve got a new band I’m digging called Valencia. Check them out over at purevolume.com. I highly recommend the two last songs on that list…”The Space Between” and “3000 Miles.” And no, it’s not a cover of the Proclaimers.
Looks like I finally need to update my theme. Been using the same once since around WordPress 1.5, and now something is broken over on the right side. I’m sure GeekyWeekly could fix it…but this thing needs a slight update anyways.
Luke has discovered the flashlight, and it’s COOL! You can point it all over, and it makes this circle of light appear! Oh my gosh! I should probably find something a little less dangerous than a maglite though. Yeah…we just hit the desk with it. haha. Pictures of him soon, I promise.
