Scheiss Weekly —
Authority: 121
Mamacita says: “Community” is something that many people take for granted, and even discount or abuse, but when all is said and done, this “community” thing is the backbone of society. Those of us who work in social media know this, but I wonder sometimes if everybody realizes how very, very important our ...23 hours ago -

Authority: 121
Mamacita says: Several years ago, back in the middle school, we had a student whose mother was referred to as “the mother from Hell,” and everyone in the building knew exactly who we were talking about whenever someone said it. She snooped through everything. She criticized the subject matter and placement ...2 days ago -

Well, by now you all know me pretty well, and you know that I love kids. I love my kids, and I love your kids. I also love most of you, and because I love most people, I made sure my own kids knew how to behave in public so you would not be inconvenienced, and I fully expect YOUR kids to know how, too. And, I ...1 week ago -

Mamacita says: Of course, you all probably already know that if you mix candy corn and salted peanuts together in a big bowl, you’ve got handfuls of PayDay bar goodness. Peanuts are a meat substitute, and candy corn is pretty much fat-free (paraffin never hurt anybody) so really, a big bowl of candy corn and ...1 week ago -

Mamacita says: I have long been a fan of Chris Brogan, and now I think I might love him madly. As a teacher, I am always on the lookout for new and better things to do, and for better ways to do what I have always done, and Chris’s daughter Violette has shown me yet another way that social media can be ...1 week ago -

Authority: 121
Mamacita says: I’m listening to Straight No Chaser , and it’s impossible to be completely whiny when those blazingly, almost impossibly, talented guys are singing straight to me and me only. . . . I know they’re big stuff now, and I’m glad because they so totally deserve to be big stuff, but let it be ...1 week ago -

Mamacita says: I am very grouchy tonight. I’m not sure why – yes, I do* – but I’m really flashbacking to one parent conference after another: conferences that took place eight and ten and more years ago, even. What the heck is up with me tonight? I am so sick, sick, sick of selfish grown-ups. ...2 weeks ago -
Quotation Saturday: It’s All About MEEEEEEEE! (Selfishness)
Scheiss Weekly —
Authority: 121
Mamacita says: Everybody is selfish on occasion; it’s human nature to want to “feel good,” and “look out for Number One” and think things like “this is best for ME,” and “I won’t share my candy!” and “It’s all for me and about me and because of MEEEEE and for my benefit!!!!” and “I want ...2 weeks ago -

Scheiss Weekly —
Authority: 121
Mamacita says: Why yes, actually, I AM having a rather bad evening. Thank you so much for asking. What tipped you off? I blame it on the fact that I hate Gatorade. Hey, you wouldn’t look so hot in my shoes, either. Thank goodness for laptops. Be right back.2 weeks ago -

Scheiss Weekly —
Authority: 121
Mamacita says: By popular demand – and I really had no idea I was popular at all – here are the answers to the literature quiz of a few weeks ago. I would have posted this sooner, but teachers asked me to wait a little while as they were using this post in their classes. I’ve never been so flattered in my ...2 weeks ago -

I Love the Sin City
Scheiss Weekly —
Authority: 121
Mamacita says: A full week without updating – this is a record for me, and not one that I’m proud of. I could say I’ve been really busy, which is true, but it’s never an excuse, is it. Not a viable one, anyway. Mea culpa. I’m in Vegas at Blog World Expo , and since Vegas is like Disney World – ...3 weeks ago -

Scheiss Weekly —
Authority: 121
Mamacita says: Summer is gone and will never return. No, really, it won’t. Not that summer. A new summer will eventually appear but it will be a different one, not the same one. The same can be said for all four seasons and, in fact, for every second of every minute of every hour of every day of every week ...4 weeks ago -

Mamacita says: Many people do not know that Stephen Crane, author of The Red Badge of Courage and The Open Boat – among many other works – was also a poet. Crane referred to his poems as “lines,” but I call them poems, and I like ‘em! Most of them are short, but hardly sweet. In The Desert ...4 weeks ago -

Mamacita says: I hated elementary school, and by “hated” what I really mean is, well, HATED. I learned to read when I was really little, but I have never read as most other people do. When I read, I look at a page and immediately, that page is affixed inside my head. I can later “bring it back,” inside ...4 weeks ago -

Scheiss Weekly —
Authority: 121
Mamacita says: Midterms are next week. Bummer. You see, I really like most of my students, and it makes me sad to see so many of them stressing over their midterm tests. Some of my students have several different midterm exams in the same week, which really puts the crunch on their time and nerves. I recently ...4 weeks ago -

Mamacita says: Back when I taught sixth grade – and y’all will find this hard to believe – there were times when it was really difficult to get those kids to follow even the simplest of directions.

Scheiss Weekly —
Authority: 121
Mamacita says: I”m feeling pretty jaded lately about many things, but I still believe that if everyone in the world would just buck up, show some spunk, and do the right thing no matter how they may feel and what they might want, the whole universe would right itself. Right and wrong do not depend on our moods ...5 weeks ago
