"Steve is equipped with Electronic Fool Injection" (itsalwayssteve)

My wife and I have paid more for the sweatshirt (and the education that came with it) than we did for Meepster. I’m the fat one looking confused on the floor. This was at a STEM night at a local elementary school. The only person older than me in this class is the instructor. She’s the one who took the picture. Only the blonde woman directly behind me and I are trying to teach anything beyond second grade.

The woman in the black jacket to the right always has colorful shoes. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her wear the same pair of casual shoes twice - only runners when she’s in her gym clothes. One of these women gave me a “save the date,” card for her wedding. Another of them has full tattoo sleeves.

The young man in the back is a baseball player and will miss the final for one class because he’s getting an award in the student-athlete banquet. He, the brown-haired woman in black directly behind me, and I are all student teaching at the same school in the fall.

That young man has the coolest car of all of them - a ‘91 Cadillac Sedan Deville in immaculate condition - light blue over dark blue leather. Runner-up is the blonde woman by the J in Jazz. She has a new Civic hatch.

Awesome pic. This is the hard copy of memories for years to come.

And teaching young minds is the best, isn’t it?

I’m back in school for nursing and have had former students of mine in class. It feels weird. It really confuses classmates when a fellow classmate is referred to as “Mr....” in class.

You seem like the lit teacher

I don’t know what “lit” means in this context, but I have spent a good amount of time “not sober,” in my life. Now I have six-packs of beer that last four months.

The English lesson I did last week was on “The Owl Critic” by James Thomas Fields and “Sick,” by Shel Silverstein. The fourth-graders loved it. I did a very loud and dramatic reading of “Owl Critic,” for them, and had a student read “Sick.” Then we did a comprehension check as an exit ticket.

For math I did some fun fraction games. For science we did imprint fossils. It was awesome.

I meant like you’re the teacher who makes school actually fun.
