Believe it or not, I'm totally calm about tomorrow. I'm trying not to put too much thought into this little mess I've gotten myself into. It's not a mess yet as Kristen reminded me a little bit ago. Just do lunch and dinner and take it from there. Sigh. The problem lies in the fact that I feel like I've really connected with PG more than CCG or any of the others. Blah. How can I go from the mother of all dry spells (Dan doesn't count as he has been completely purged from memory...well almost purged) to this?! Only my life.

The events of a week ago have led to a call for more safety in schools. I completely agree. Metal detectors are not going overboard. As this case, Columbine, Paducah, etc. have shown it's not just the inner city schools that have a violence problem anymore. This topic also concerns me since there is a strong possibility I will be a teacher in about 4 years. I don't want to have to be looking over my shoulder every five minutes wondering if the kid I gave an F to has sanpped and is packing heat. Uh, no.

In response to my friend Chad and his comments about the mess that's going on at Iowa State right now. No offense Chad but you sir are WRONG! Eustachy should be fired for the pure and simple reason that he signed his contract knowing there was a morality clause in it and if he did anything to violate the terms of his contract he would be shit canned. That's it in a nutshell. Thank you and good night. Case closed. Yeah he admitted to being wrong and having a drinking problem and I do give him credit for coming forward with that information but he knew what he was getting himself into. I have no sympathy for someone who willingly breaks the rules then whines when they get caught. Nope.

The inbox is getting bigger and I should get some things finished before I shove off for my crazy weekend. Wish me luck, go knows I'll need it.
