Well.... of course, after posting something about being positive I would have to endure the most dreadful, long, terrible, gut-wrenching in-service ever possible to a human being so I feel like I'm backtracking... but not really.
BUT.... I did choose to make the best of it. The entire system met at NCCOG today and at about 10 a.m. (it started at 8) I thought I had been there for dayyyyyyysssss. At least I was sitting by someone fairly funny and we just made jokes. And then... the best part.... a BOY BAND sure did come out on stage and SING and DANCE!!!! WHAT?!?! They are called "The Standards" thus very fitting because we all received new standards to teach this year. They were completely accapella and consisted of 5 brothers from Missouri maybe? It was like the Jonas Brothers plus 2: styled hair with skinny jeans.
They were actually decent... and somewhat entertaining... but I was still astounded at the shift of mood in that place. Thank the Lord we don't have one of those for another year!

When I taught (and had to do in-service), another teacher friend of mine always said that having to sit through all of that horror actually makes you WANT to get into your classroom and work. Kind of a reverse psychology thing I guess. Hope you have a rockin' school year Miss Fletcher!
