Sort of Dunno Nothin’

February 04, 2008 By: Rick Category: Blogworthy No Comments →

Cool Cat Teacher proclaimed this “Funday Monday”, so I’m just passing along this little tidbit from an Australian guy named Peter Denahy.  Warning though, you will never get this 2:11 in your life back.   Kind of grows on you after a while.

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Floating thoughts: Friday edition

A little more than a tweet, but not quite a full blog post.  Just some stuff going through my head in between meeting with students and parents today:

  • Busy week, both at home and school, which makes things go pretty fast. 
  • Moving stuff out of my apartment this weekend–should give you a clue how things are progressing on the matrimonial front.
  • My weigh-in at Weight Watchers this week didn’t happen.  That kind of gave me permission to not eat healthy for a while.  Time to get back on the stick.
  • Outdoor recess today, for the first time this week.  Yay!!  That’s from the kids and the teachers.
  • I’m using Google Docs more and more lately.  I think everybody should.  I wish formatting was a little more intuitive, though.  I have also installed a Wiki on here.  When to use Google Docs, and when to use a wiki?  Or are they interchangeable?
  • Our music teacher has been having the kids listen to Copland today.  My office is right across the hall from the music room, so I get to hear a lot of what’s going on in there.  Sometimes I miss being a music teacher.
  • I’d really like to start playing piano/keys at church again.  I’m working on that at my new church.  Hopefully within the next month or two that will be a reality.  Gots to use my skillz, man.
  • U-Haul has some of the most customer-unfriendly policies I have ever seen.  Rented from Budget instead, we’ll see how it goes.
  • Only 3 kids out of 9 showed up for leadership meeting at lunch today.  The rest were at a Perfect Attendance lunch.  You can do the math to find the correlation there.
  • I’d like to change the little list-style graphics that show up in the sidebar here.  These are a little intrusive for my tastes.  Gonna have to play around with the Gimp some time this weekend.

Have a great weekend everybody!
