Fellow teachers:

When August comes all those fools with 'real' jobs will be dancing on our faces, but for now, this is our time. Bask. Bask. Soak it all up. Crank up your favorite celebratory music and feel the release as the stench of stupid questions washes away for a couple months. Once more, you made it. Say and do something rude that you can't do in front of students. Something immature, something inappropriate. It's okay, no one's watching.

Seriously, though. If you are a teacher, you've earned the feeling you have right now. You earn it every day. Enjoy it. Feel good. And I'll see you back here in August with a high-five, ready to do it all again. Because even though right now, walking away from this job is a small slice of heaven...we all know it's the best job out there and we wouldn't trade it for anything else.

Happy summer!

Matt
