I just got home.  I left around 4:30, just got back.  Sitting outside our room door was a red rose and like a carnation in some wrapping, not labeled for who it was to or from.  Asked a neighbor, they didn't get one.  So it's special for this room?  One of us four ladies?  MAYBE THIS LADY?

Sushi with Amanda and Allana was delicious. 

Then I realized I could, in theory, go to Cortland THIS WEEKEND.  I'd have to miss Ellen's 21st birthday party, but I could see my girls.  And I almost started crying at the realization I could go see them.  I miss them sooo much!

Oh, and Leo, one of my 5th graders gave me a piece of candy that his table didn't want.  He also felt I wasn't too teachery to tell me 'I didn't take notes' on the chapter they had to read for today.  I don't encourage this, but I felt 'cool' knowing he trusted he could tell me without me freaking out on him. 

I've had a great day, and will start reading with a happy heart.  But I hope Liser and Michaeler and Gen call me and tell me I can go up there, because I miss them so fucking much.  And they have the same spring break, so I can't go that week, and oh, oh, oh, I want to go so badly!!!!!!!!  I really want this to work out!
