Tonight is the first night o parent conferences. I generally like this experience. I have a lot in common with many of the parents here and it's fun for me to share perspectives on the kids that I teach.
Tonight is probably not my favorite conferences night. Not because of the conferences themselves, but because I have 6 10-minute conferences spread over nearly 4 hours. Considering that I spent from 8 to 12 this morning sitting in the same windowless room watching kids take tests without any break at all, sitting in a classroom by myself for that long would not be my first choice of activities.
Ar this point, I've reached the stage where I'm powered solely by coffee and M&Ms. This is an underappreciated buzz, I think, and I got this special coffee at Starbucks that they make in a Clover brewing machine that is fantastic. Pop a few M&Ms, wash it down with some Sumatra and I have no problem at all carrying on for 10 minutes. Maybe even 15. Then I start to fuzz out a bit so I just repeat the process.
