Day 38: Cooling Off

If it isn't already hot enough in my livingroom at 8:30 at night, I'm sitting here with my laptop in my lap. This little machine generates some heat, but I'm too tired and lazy to sit up straight to work at the bar.

So, this will be a short post.

Today, I had my first instance of feeling some true unkindness toward a student. So far, I've been really lucky with my students. They are boisterous, but overall the energy is positive. Things went a little south with one freshman later in the day. I don't feel comfortable including details, but needless to say, I'll need to take a few deep breaths tomorrow, call him out of class, and let him know that when he's in my class, he's on my schedule and following my instructions.

Wish me luck! Time to turn this little machine off and cool off!
