and you have safely arrived then, I presume? May I throw in a book suggestion: Teach Like Your Hair's On Fire by rafe esquith.

As soon as I can get a library card, I'll check it out. That would be as soon as the local branch gets their AC fixed.

Yup, I made it here safely. I started classes on Monday. I just applied to become a substitute teacher for the experience and extra cash so I don't have to live too much like a grad student. It is stinkin' hot here, 95* + humidity every day, but I'm getting used to melting.

105 + heat index here and has been for 15 days and counting

And I always thought Maryland summers were bad. Uh-uh, not so much.

I think we gave you the heat we had a couple weeks ago. Sorry about that.
