Today went well...

NOT!!! I stayed up late due to over planning my lesson plans. I tend to feel overwhelmed because I feel like I have to do all of my lesson plans all of the time. So I find myself reminding myself that I don't have to make lesson plans on Monday for a class that isn't until Friday. So anyway, lastnight I went to sleep late and even though I was totally prepaired for it, I totally missed it. The class started at 8:30am and I was actually supposed to be there at 8:00am to greet the returning parents and students...but didn't manage to wake up until 10:00am, YEAH!!! I ran in there at 10:30 with the excuse that my cell phone was lost/stolen (which was true) and that I used it for my alarm clock and everything else...so I was using a laptop as my alarm clock and the power went out...which happens all the time. Anyway, she basically said that all that mattered was that I was there and would I sub for a 2:30 class? She is too damn freakin good...I swear! Of course I had to say yes. It ended up being a class that she knew I would like and I have a feeling that she was hoping I would come running back to her begging for the class. She ended up not being in her office when I came back after class, which I took to mean that she was hoping that I would keep all the materials that she lent me and end up keeping the class in the end...well I had to walk by the other building in order to go home and happened to see one of the maintenance guys standing out front and with our limited language abilities I was able to understand that the Director was in a meeting and he was able to understand that I wanted him to give her the books back. I was hoping that this would be a subliminal way of telling her that I didn't want the class but I suppose we will see next Saturday.
