The air is E-L-E-C-T-R-I-C!

I can't decide if it's more enticing to hope for my classes to run as usual tomorrow or to hope that the electricity doesn't get turned back on in time, thus turning Wednesday into a Secret Summer Snow Day.

Obviously, the title of the latter sounds better, but how will it affect Pauline the Octopus? Will we be able to save her in time if we miss an entire day?

Okay, Pauline the Octopus isn't real. She's just a dramatrue kid who got turned into a dramatrue river-dwelling octopus by some mysterious dramatrue instrument played by her dramatrue brother Petey (although Petey is also her sister in some classes as Petey is also me in a ponytail, which can be very confusing if you're five). The real question is if classes are canceled will my paycheck also be canceled? Because probably yes.

I also have to go tell the ed director that I do not want a certain someone to be my assistant next year. I will have to use words such as "non-intuitive" and phrases such as "does not follow directions" in this telling. And that makes me sadder than Petey in realtrue.
