"My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon, I will return again"

It has been a strange day in Jannyville.

I was awoken this morning at 8:35 by the emergency dispatch system looking for a sub for the whole day. School had already started but they had just got the call. I arrived shortly after 9:30 only to be informed that they didn't need anyone. There was a mix up and another sub was already there. I was informed that I would still be paid and I would work for the morning filing cumulative files. So I was paid for a full day of work to file for a half a day. Unusual but I'm not complaining (except for my back which is killing me). Even more unusual was that when I got to the staffroom to retrieve my things a teacher was rifling through my lunch. She was alone in the room and when I walked in she sees me and proclaims "This isn't my lunch!". Well, duh. Yours was right beside you in a plastic grocery bag and you were looking in a cloth red lunch bag. The principal said that sometimes lunches get stolen but I thought he was joking.

I woke up from my nap this afternoon and to my surprise it had snowed. The ground was completely covered from the time I got home to the time I left again two hours later to go to the doctor.

As I waited for the doctor I was trying to read The Odyssey. The attempt at reading was unfruitful the TV was on near me with a loud kids' cooking show called Edible Incredible. I took off my glasses while I was reading and I have no idea what happened to them. I don't know if I took them with me to the doctor's office or left them in the waiting room. I realized they were gone when the doctor came in. The nurses and I searched everywhere and I never did find them. I left my name and number and they said they'd call if they found them. Oy with the poodles already!
