moments like that cancel out the 'masochistic' parts of the job, don't they?


"masochistic" wasn't my choice of words...though I guess I do "receive pleasure from mistreatment" (Webster's definition). :hammer "Ooh, yeah, don't stop!" :lol

Seriously, though...it was a great teacher moment, with some Giants baseball added in. I'm probably not going to retire at 50, and I'm probably going to hear, "Preschool teacher? You're pretty smart, why don't you become a REAL teacher?" for a long long time, but I LOVE my job, and deep down, I believe in what I do. How many of us can say that?
