AM: 9 eliptical miles pretty hard and a 1 mile row.

I was listening to Automatic by the Jesus and Mary Chain. Excellent album for pounding out hard miles on an eliptical or a bike. You're welcome.

A young teacher at school came by to interview me after school today. He's one of those alternative path teachers and he needed to interview an "experienced veteran" (old) teacher. It was interesting but I'm not sure I hellped him. He wanted to know about my classroom management philosophy (don't really have one) and my system of rewards and punishment (definitely don't have one). I basically told him to master his subject, be interesting, keep the kids busy, and let them know you care about them, and you'll be ok.

A kitten adopted Ann and I while we were downtown having dinner last night. Brought it home and gave it to Andy (he's always wanted a cat). It's just a few weeks old and was close to starvation but is doing well.
