Blue Socks

I dated a guy once that called random things Blue Socks. So, that is what I think of when people start having random thoughts.

My students finished their test early today and were just hanging out talking, going from one conversation to another. They blamed it on their ADD, but I begged to differ. My brain is all over the place, especially when I am trying to fall asleep.

It is snowing out. Why? It is April 4th and baseball season. Not snow season.

I am in my jammies early though.

No school on Friday - Good Friday - Halleluah! Only means I have to go to the grocery store and work to get ready for next week and so that I don't have to do it on Easter.

I went shopping for a pretty skirt for Easter and couldn't find a darned thing.

I did shop early on ebay and got the two youngest hard to find webkinz. I am very excited.

I haven't gotten anything for the two big boys though. Hmmmm. Guess I will add that to my to do list for Friday.

Speaking of Blue Socks, I am going to the Red Sox on Wednesday. It is DiceK's (sorry don't know how to spell his name) home debut. Very exciting. My husband and I are going with my best friend and her husband. It should be so much fun.

I tutor a girl after school for SATs. We got very off topic today. She liked philosophy and all that stuff. We had some good non-math conversation. I had her last year and she remembered that I said I hate philosophy. LOL. The things kids remember. I explained that I don't hate philosophy. One can't really hate philosophy. I explained that I didn't like my philosophy class in college because I didn't care for my professor. It made me laugh that something I said stuck with her after a year. Makes me remember that I need to be careful what I say to students.

I guess I have some sort of impact.

I do have a student that is really sick. He was born with spina bifida and is in a wheel chair. He is 15. He got an infection and is in the hospital. Tomorrow my advisor group is going to have the whole school of about 1000 kids make cards for him. I think he will like it.

Well, it is almost 6 pm, husband is on his way home from work, I guess I need to make dinner. It is Wednesday, so pasta day. Spaghetti with salad.
