So today's been a mix of stuff. It was my last day of teaching at Oakmont. As much as the twerps can be really annoying sometimes, I'm going to miss them. Now Mrs. Donohue gets to deal with them. In a way I feel bad for both parties involved there. It's kind of funny; my A Block class was a pain to begin with, and C Block was pretty good, and 4 ( Read more... )

So we went to Slingawhore last night after Leader of the Pack (which was superfantastic), and in the menu, they apparently serve "Freid Rice." I was much bothered.

Life is good.

Basketball season is now over at Oakmont. And I couldn't be prouder of my kids. Oakmont is the Central Massachusetts Division 2 Basketball Champion, and they played yesterday against Charlestown, which wasn't exactly an evenly matched game, for the State Title, and went out with a bang.
