Ill met by moonlight

Whenever I'm teaching high school students at their school, someone always asks me the following question:

"What are you on and can I have some?"

Today's outloud answer: "This is me in the morning."

Today's inner monologue: "Yellow Dog."

The actual classroom teacher is teaching to her afternoon class what I taught to her morning class. I cannot wait to find out how it went. She probably doesn't have any holes in her tights with which to inadvertantly accentuate her curricular directives.

(PS I was teaching good ole Shakespeare. While preparing my curriculum, I decided that people who are totally into Shakespeare are much like people who are totally into Monty Python: too many recognizable quotes and shutupshutupshutup!)

Very often they are the same exact people.

Hey freesia, I recognize that. Was that from Monty Python?

No idea, my friend. I was just yanking it out of that place where the sun don't shine.
