fox

president fox, that is.
also, there's a fox in the book i'm supposed to be reading but don't want to exactly because carlos came in early.

you see, the president of mexico is in town. so not one of my intermediate students has shown up. i'm actually kind of offended. if they'd asked for permission, i would've given it, but they didn't even ask! and what about marijeta? she's not mexican! she's bosnian!

so i've been sitting around and (if you can believe it) being relatively productive. normally i would be glad to have an unexpected break, but today i spent all my lunch hours preparing a detailed schedule of how we're going to finish the book before i go out of town, and now we're already behind! i went to the library for goodness sake! i have three copies of goldilocks and the three bears sitting on my desk. and not one student. i've half a mind to just stick to my schedule. but then they'd all fail and it would defeat the purpose of finishing the book in time for them to pass the test and transition into the advanced class.

grrr.
