Read Or Eat Glass

October 30, 2008
Bri: Grade 6’s written work makes me want to eat hot coals- less painful.

Me: Hmmm hot coals…I was thinking of eating broken glass because it would double as recycling. I had them read out their work today so they can hear themselves and each other.

Bri: Smart, very enviro-minded of you. Good idea, they are so behind it feels impossible.

Me: Yep, I know. I don’t know what to do and I don’t know how to feel. ET ejector button or…wait, what is the alternative?

Bri: In a certain light the alternative looks like a monkey’s butt. We shall overcome…? Someday…?

Me: Somehow. At least I like monkeys…though I don’t want to be close to anything that resembles an animal’s butt.
