According to all available data, I'll be back at my school next year. In a district that (historically) shuffles administrators around every five years, I get to come back for my seventh. Not even Harry Potter could pull that off. There will be more stories, more rants, and more funny stuff--I'm looking forward to sharing it with you. Until then . . . .

I told them I was going on vacation. I wasn't specific about plans (I had designs to take a car trip up the coast--staying in motels in Pismo, Morro Bay or Cayucos, and end up in Monterey--but I don't think that'll happen now). I told them my daughter was in town, and I was going to spend time with her. I changed the voicemail message, set the auto-reply on my e-mail, and finished all the pending stuff on my desk. Although I've been reading some of the mail coming through, I've been vigilant about staying on vacation. I haven't responded to anything (nor have I seen anything that requires my immediate attention). It's been nice to keep a distant eye on things and learn to enjoy my time off. By the time I get fully used to it, it'll be time to go back to work.
