Dear grading.

Dear Grading,

I am in the middle of you, and I am not speaking metaphorically.

As a bonus thought, I will be in the middle of you until December. And then it will be Christmas, and there will be Christmas stuff to be in the middle of. And then, January, and by January 20th, say, I will be in the middle of you again. Until May.

Grading, you have a large, all-encompassing morass of a middle.

Sincerely,

htms

    Been there, bought the t-shirt: Got morass?

    Well spoken, htms! Grading is indeed an all-encompassing morass, embedded in a thick, dank fog. Do we really have to wait until December for a gulp of fresh air? *sigh*

    Radagast -- where can I get one of those t-shirts?

    Stephanie, you should be able to find it at your local Georgia T-shirt Emporium, available in a Combo Pak, along with: Grading: Now with Morass. ($19.99 with teacher discount)

    Now that I think about it, I remember seeing the Georgia T-Shirt Emporium right next to the "Half Shell," an oyster bar/ hot dog stand (no lie!) just one town over. Road trip! :)

    Dear Grading,
    It sounds like you are stalking my mom. Get over it.

    Dear htms,

    This is the one thing I don't miss about teaching. Thinking of you.
