Yesterday went okay. I have to admit, with some trepidation, that I was concerned something might happen - you know, some seriously disturbed person wanting to make a "statement" or something.

today, it's back to normal life. And today has been like being pecked to death by ducks. It's no one thing that gets to me, it's all of them in combination.

Incidentally, does anyone who might be reading my blog know anything of a supposed federal regulation that says you now have to have a CDL (commercial driver's license) with a B certification to drive a 15 passenger van?

that's been part of the duck-pecking today. meetings, where no one knows what's up, but they're warning us "don't drive the vans without them." I've emailed my representative but got a form letter back saying they would reply by snail mail.

Now I have to barricade myself in my office and grade like a demon until 5 or later.
