Okay, but what did he expect trying to tell us that he best Shaq at basketball? That's some straight up compulsive liar imposter syndrome stuff.

LMAO that has to be a trait.

Think I gotta call it a night, finally tired. Nice brainstorming with you all again. Seems we can't resist when we're all insomniacs together.

good night!

I should go to bed too.  It's 3 a.m. here, and tomorrow's my last day of break before I have to get back on school schedule.  Nice brainstorming with you both!!

Hopefully you have an easier time of it than I did! (which was not at all.)

LOL I didn't think so, judging by how late you were up talking to us!  I will have to drug myself with melatonin or Benadryl to get myself to go to sleep at a reasonable time tonight.  At least tomorrow is a teacher in-service day, so we don't have students until Thursday.  It's nice to ease us back in to the routine.

I've definitely been in a bout of insomnia more than usual. Coffee is basically my life blood right now, much more than usual!

If I catch you lurking on here in the wee hours, I will tell you to go to bed for sure!  But it's good it's just other teachers and not the kids just yet. I wish I'd had that day between.

Yes, please do! LOL

We started doing this a few years ago, and it's been amazing.  Gives us a chance to plan for the rest of the week without having to do it before or during break.

I always hated having to plan during breaks to be ready. And it's doubly nice of them to give you two more days of break at the beginning of the week before the inservice day. And now you get to see each of your groups once, so it's not lopsided!

Yep, so the kids will get eased in to it too.  It's perfect.  We had school the Monday and Tuesday before Christmas when a lot of districts were already on break, so that's why we got this Monday and Tuesday off.

Boo, I also had school that Monday and Tuesday and just... no matter how hard I tried, no one wanted to be there anymore... including me!

Aw, man!  I bet not.  We always get two weeks for winter break.

Ours is about a week and a half? It depends on exactly where the holidays fall. I guess I preferred this to the past couple years when we've come back on a Friday, then had a weekend.

LOL I guess that's one way to ease you in, but it's a little weird to come back for just one day.  I like coming back mid-week so it's a short week, but still more than one day.

I'm fine with three or four days, once it creeps down to one or two days, I feel like it's useless at the beginning of a semester or the end.

Also, this is your hour warning to get your beauty rest soon. I know I need at least six hours to be semi-functioning. Not sure how long your commute is or what your start time is and don't need details, but I'm guessing here.

LOL I know, I told myself 11 p.m. was my cutoff, and it's 11:07.  I did take my melatonin, so I will be going to bed shortly.  I told myself I can stay up a little later than usual and keep watching CNN because it's history - and also I don't have to be at work until half an hour later than my usual time, since we have no students.  Thanks for the warning!  If you see me still on here at 10 p.m. your time (midnight mine), you can start yelling at me.
