25-plus years teaching high school drama has taught me something.
THEY never AGE -- forever seventeen, they fly through my life too fast and have transmogrified into facebook friends the world over. Past students smile in photos with eyes I can never forget -- eyes that are passed on to children of their own.
I love you all, but don't everyone visit the old lady at once. 'Cause that would be... awkward.
What can I say... I became a teacher because I was the kid who dragged anyone willing to a small blackboard in the backyard of our trailer home and taught them SOMETHING. Anything... I taught mostly the alphabet to little ones I babysat. I just liked being in charge I guess. Yeah, I'm a know-it-all. Ask my students. I DO know that the older I get, the less I know. That's true, by the way, not just an old cliche.
