I’ll be honest. I knew this school year was going to be shit. I really did. When you have staff leaving a school in mass exodus and a city that doesn’t quite understand what teacher morale is, you know things are going to be bad. I figured that it would compel me to right more. To market this blog more. To create an instagram for this site. Hell, maybe I even would have created a Twitter for this page.

But here again I am yelling into the meaningless void.

I thought that a shitty school year was going to make me want to write more. Ya know, develop the craft. I was going to treat this site like the cute little exotic animal that wandered in my car window like a hurricane. I was going to nurse this thing to health, where in turn it would learn to love me. Once I was going to have to let it go back to the wild, it would want to stay and be the heartwarming story that everyone likes to watch on Facebook while they take a shit.

Ehh, a lad can dream.
