Guess what, everybody?! I hit a deer this morning on my way to work!! Guess that makes me a true Montanan, right? In case you're wondering, I'm fine, and so is my vehicle. I was only going about 20 mph, so it wasn't too bad. The deer didn't die instantly, but I am pretty sure that she (yes, she) wandered off to die in peace.
When I got to school, I got out to look and see if any blood or hair was stuck on my car. Nothin'. No proof. But I really did!! My kids were/are so proud of me! My mom, on the other hand, was more concerned about the deer :).
So today in one of my classes, the kids were creating couples. I told them to cut it out and that the only person they should be trying to marry off is me. One of the girls suggested that I marry one of my 7th grade boys, since he was the one "performing the marriages." His response was, "Ewww!! I'm too young to die!!" Nice, right? Oh the joys of teaching middle school. I wanted to tell him that his mom has said that she would be proud to have a daughter-in-law like me, but I thought that would be way too embarrassing for him. His punishment--after school today, he has to come to my classroom and tell me all the reasons that a guy would be lucky to get to marry me!! Hahaha. That should be pretty interesting. I'll let you know he said :)
