California get ready

I'm not really sure that anyone should bother checking this blog, but if you do, greetings. This is the first chance I have had to use a high speed connection in some time - it's at my school. I am an assistant in three first grade classrooms at a local k-8 school! Sometimes, I don't like it. I feel awfully childish when doing something I don't like upsets me so much.
