March Sucks


Welcome to March. Here is why it sucks:

1. As a teacher, it is definitely the toughest month there is. Snow days become more and more limited and un-possible. Kids have a long stretch from Feb vacation until April vacation. It is GOOD because you can get a LOT of curriculum done....but kids care less about it than I care about Libya and whatever the heck is going on over there

2. It is a month which condones the only acceptable racial profiling holiday in existence: St Patrick's Day.

3. It is a NOTHING month that has NOTHING for ANYONE. Winter lovers, like me, hate it because it is a "mezzanine" kind of month. It really isnt WINTER anymore....it is just dry, cold, staticky (I checked, and that is a word), and gray. It is windy. Even as a snow lover, I tend to want it all to go away so I can go outside and play. But March isnt really spring either. It gives you nice days and daylight savings time longer periods of sunlight....but it doesnt matter when it is 28 degrees out. It is a tease. March--if it were a period of human life--would definitely be the beginning of adolescence--that "ugly" time in a kid's life where they are pimply and smelly and awkward and completely unaware of who they are and what they stand for. The snow that melts in March--which is a precursor to spring and thus should make people happy--STILL is incredibly ugly and nasty; all I can focus on is all the mess it leaves behind with sand, salt, and grit.


March has no idea what it is.

Hey......
I love March - it's Jonnathan's birthday and that is special. And, I might get to go to New Jersey and see my sister and family! And, besides, don't we always have our favorite, corned beef and cabbage? See, all is not lost!
