spring break (almost)

I have about 100 more teaching minutes in the classroom until spring break--but I'm not teaching today. My kids are hanging out, playing cards, listening to their ipods, and watching a movie. I just sent a somewhat reactionary referral out for a new kid in my class. He is constantly touching girls and insulting people, and it just went too far. He was pissed and cussed on his way out. I don't really care--I just got really sick of it all.

On a lighter note--I am super stoked for break. We are bike shopping for Jesse, going to dim sum and the De Young for our dad's birthday, going to Grass Valley to shop for wedding rings, having a book group meeting at our house, and then my swim team is having a meet that I am swimming and volunteering at. I'm stoked! And all this with no work!! I mean, I will be doing a lot of planning and some grading, but in general it should be a relaxing week. I have an extra day off, too, for Cesar Chavez which should be great.

Got my wedding dress--it's very pretty!!! Email me and ask if you want details.
