4 DAY-UM!

6 Slid right under the tag on Tuesday!
7 I'll get to the Warriors in a sec.
8 Too many sports' analogies.

10 I WILL say this, since this portion of the DN is being brought to you by last night. Listen:
11 My students had to put vocab sentences on the white board yesterday.
12
13 This requires a LOT of erasing.
14 I use water-soaked paper towels for erasing white boards.
15 AND I found earlier this year that water-soaked paper towels can make even an Old Brown Shoe look like Steph when tossed across a room into the waste basket.
16 Not gonna lie.
17 Not EVEN gonna lie.
18 I practiced during my morning prep period so that every time I would erase the board, I would hit a three.
19 I'd love to say...

21 Nah, I was on yesterday. The Woeyers weren't, but I was.
22 I tried to keep it low-key, but I moved, got blocked by kids who were bored and wandering, and still kept hitting the trash, usually with a mental "whoosh."
23 I was pretty nonchalant. Even teachers get bored. And goofy.
24 At one point I hit three in a row, turned, looked at a kid and said, "I was inspired by Steph."
25 He smiled but really thought, "What a dumbass."
26
27 Humility is an occupational hazard.
28
29 Ah well. It was fun. Great trick though. Dampen a paper towel and you will hit threes all day long.
30 You have to practice, but it takes about two seconds. You can amaze everyone at work.
31 They'll whisper things like, "That guy NEVER misses!"
32 "That guy was inspired by Steph!"
33 Or...
34 "That guy's a dumbass!"
35
36 Anybody lookin'?

38 Fewer and fewer if I keep this nonsense up.

40 Moving On, Part One: Wednesday.
41 Meetings.
42
43 Have I mentioned that I hate meetings?
44
45 I find the vast majority of them useless. They keep me from getting stuff done.
46
47 Here's how I feel about meetings:

52 That guy works every time. Just sayin'.
53 Gottago.
54 Practice your shots.
55 Don't worry about the Warriors. They're going to be fine.
56 Stay safe. Be humble.
57 See you again.
58 Peace.
