The Daily News

1   Ah, the good ol' Daily News.

2   On the porch, not on the driveway.

3   And if you get that one, you're officially in the Old Brown Shoe Club, which I just now invented and will soon forget.

4   So it goes; so it goes.

5   Yesterday I conked out early, my hatred of Tuesdays having surfaced.

6   Torture. That day HAS to go.

7   So I  conked out.

8    Who could blame a fellow?

9    Ah it's all good.

10  Today is a meeting day.

11   I already have a bazillion emails from people who are mad at me for one thing or another.

12   Happens.

13   These all flew in like pretty doves after I conked out.

14   Who on this planet has that sort of time?

15   Ummm...all of them?

16   

17   <sigh>

18   I remember a time when that sort of thing would have driven me mad.

19   Now I can officially attribute it to the sublime forgetfulness and senility of not really giving a shit.

20   For those of you who are younger, you have lots to look forward to.

21   The same people who are all pooped up about daily issues are the same people who ask me to put in work orders for classrooms that have ridiculously inadequate air conditioning.

22   You want to face boushit?

23   Try teaching verbs to a last-class-of the day in a room that has tropical mugginess.

24   Students melted off the sides of their desks, and tired tongues fell to the carpet.

25   We're talking some of the best and brightest.

26   At least I wore a nice tie. One kid told me my tie made her feel as though she were in a Disney movie.

27   She certainly wasn't in the transitive-verb moment.

28   Ah, it's a livin'.

29   Anybody lookin'?

30   Ed U. Kation.

31   If I were a sub, I'd use that handle. 

32   It's SO sub.

33   Remember those guys?

34   Tough gig.

35    Good pay. No bennies.

36    I cut my teeth on being a sub.

37    You realize just how stupid you are really fast.

38    fdadfdklfdsfd.

39   Moving On, Part the First: I sincerely wrote this into the 3 a.m.

40   Not gonna lie.

41   I usually lie, but not this time.

42   2015.

43   Everything is stupid.

44   No lie.

45   Anybody lookin'?

46   I can't believe that at 3 a.m. I have around twenty people pissed at me. 

47   <looking around>

48    Okay, that's just an exaggeration, which I spelt correctly the first time around.

49   That's right.

50   I still got it, beotches rapidas.

51   The entire foreign language department just shook their heads.

52   Whatttttttuppp.

53   I can't believe any of this.

54   Neither should you.

55   Thanks for the support tho.

56   No, seeesly.

57   I appreciate intelligence, and anyone who can hold on to this nonsense must have tons of intelligence.

58   And a kind patience.

59   We all go through it man.

60   Daily.

61   My computer just warned me about updates, and to report an issue.

62   

63   I hate meetings. I hate meetings like nothing else on this Earth. 

64   And because of yesterday I took issue with Tuesday Weld, this goofball actress from back-in-the-day.

65  TaIk about issues. 

66   I officially gottago. I needs must.

67  Thanks for listening.

67   See you another time and appreciate you now. Have a GREAT day.

68   Peace.

~H~
