I read a short story years ago about a man who woke up one day and gazed into the mirror and doesn't see his own face but some stranger's.  Naturally he freaks out but tries to go through out his daily routine.  No one at his workplace notices that his face isn't his own.  The next day he is revealed to see that his own face has returned, but no one recognizes him.

I suppose I have a fear of becoming a pariah.  The idea that I could be labeled a monster or that the fickle world would turn its back on me for reasons beyond my understanding or control is terrifying.

Well I didn't think anything new could scare me...

But...

Today a blind student drew me a picture of the Slender Man. 

A BLIND STUDENT DREW THE SLENDER MAN. O_O

He also showed me his coloring of George Washington, so it's all good now lol

I sometimes wonder how many teachers are on here.

Today's episode of COSMIC HORROR IN THE CLASSROOM:

After seeing that Google's Doodle was Dorothy Height, I decided to show my students a quick video on her life and influence.  The students thoroughly enjoyed learning about her, and my hope for humanity was saved!

Then someone asked if we were going to watch a video about the "GWAR guy that died."

The universe laughs.

I teach physics.  And on a related note, outer space is quite terrifying.  Like how utterly powerless you are if you are adrift in space....

I am in the process of getting licenses for Cross Categorical Special Education and ESL/ELL.

I have a position lined up that starts in August, but for now I work as a substitute teacher...

I enjoy pain.

I'm afraid of two things right now. Scrutiny and numbness. I've had anxiety problems for a while which are triggered by being judged or tested. I'm afraid of the numbness that follows them, of only feeling fear, of being too tired to feel anything else.

Today's installment of COSMIC HORRORS IN THE CLASSROOM:

Bright - Eyed 2nd Grader:  Here you go!

Me:  Why thank you!  What is it?

2nd Grader:  It is a heaven dollar!  You will need it to buy things when you get to heaven!

Me:  Awww, how kind of you.

2nd Grader:  You'll be there soon.

Me:  .....

:\

Nice knowing you all :(
