Hey Suzann, I have wondered how you are! I am going to pm you eventually, so check back when you can.
I have to tell you....I had this student. She was the type every teacher loves. Always participates, tries hard, asks for help, etc....The day of the final she showed up looking awful: pale, sort of gray, walking real slow, hunched over. She approaches me and tells me she has a kidney stone, no big deal, really. She can handle the pain, but just in case she passes out during the exam, for me not to panic and just call the ambulance. She didn't want me to be taken unawares. Are you freaking kidding me? Get out of here! Go home! Can you imagine? What on earth are people thinking?
I am hurrying to finish last minute grading and then I am going outside for the next 48 hours straight. Nearly 80 degrees, I can't wait.
