The cycle

Just like a baseball player can hit for the cycle in a game, I have applied such a principle to substitute teaching. I have subbed for every teacher at WHS in the past year. Or at least I thought so or think so with some exceptions. The main exception would be the music teacher, I forgot about her some how. The only other teachers that I didn't sub for last year, were the first three I subbed for this year. Most of the special ed aides I didn't commit a whole day to, but did spot them all for about 2 periods for a day last year. I also subbed for the art class last year, but they have a new teacher this year. I am going to count that for now. The kids almost all know me by name now which is a bit weird. Most of the time I have to write my name on the board and how to pronounce it. HOW-KEY is how I tell them by the way.

I do have a bit of a funny story about the art teacher from last year. My senior year of high school, I didn't have a date to senior prom. I think my sister blackmailed her boyfriend into finding me a date. Since he was a whiteoak student, and didn't want to be blackmailed on prom night, he found me a date. I barely even knew what was going on. I was going to be content not going. At any rate, I was doing something at the league track meet and two girls from whiteoak came up and started asking me what I knew about said art person. I didn't have any idea what they were talking about and acted accordingly. Long story short, I had a date and she wanted as little to do with me as possible after the prom in a public place. After I took her back to her parents, then I went back home and hung out at my sisters bonfire. Someone asked me how I liked my date and I had nearly forgotten that I had one and didn't remember her name.
