Welcome to 2010... The Future!
Wow, 2010. Who'd ever have thought it would get here so quick. I know, I know, it took exactly as long as it was always going to take but seriously, this last decade went by super fast in comparison to the other two.

I got home a little over two ( Read more... ) -
Doing the rounds
On Monday I went and Schmoozed at 11 of the schools that I have supplied at, well, one was a school I haven't been to before. I handed out resume's to secretaries, Vice-pricipals and Principals, spoke to teachers I haven't seen in a while, got lots of hugs and lots of compliments. I even got a "We should get you a job!" and some very specific ( Read more... )
