The Storm Before the Calm

Why does it always seem that right before I take a few days off, all of the sudden, everyone wants my time and needs a hundred things done yesterday? It certainly does seem to make the being gone part all the better! We're now officially on spring break until next Tuesday, and after that, I'll be on my way to AWP in Vancouver! Woo-hoo!

And for that matter, the storm in the classroom regarding topic choices for argument came to a nil point. The students picked "DNA dragnets should not be allowed by law enforcement to solve crimes." As it turns out, the group decided that there wasn't as much on the issue of gay marraige outside of religious morality that they felt they could argue, so they bagged it as an issue. All that fretting for naught. Or not - ?
