Back at it!August 26th, 2008Hi there, First off, if you’ve sent me an email, and I haven’t written you back, gently email nudge me again . . . I may have lost your email in transit. My email was on the fritz for a few days, so your email have been eaten. Speaking of emails — those of you that have sent me electronic notes, THANK YOU. I’ve gotten such wonderful emails from students and teachers and ordinary citizens and lizards. Okay, I haven’t been contacted by any lizards yet. But here’s hoping. Secondly, I’m officially back on the middle school circuit — and I’m thrilled. I started off at Kyrene Akimel A-al Middle School near Phoenix, AZ. Media specialist Rhonda Brewer greeted me with her stylish Weepul shirt (which I got a kick out of, because we had the same magazine drive at my middle school). The whole thing was organized to a t! It took me a couple minutes to get the rust off, but it was a great day. Katy, Abdul and Christian didn’t teleport, exactly. Though I really thought we might get Christian to Wal-mart, He was looking for bargains. Also, it marked the first time that an assembly has done the wave while waiting for me to begin. There were some very energetic teachers behind the whole thing – it was pretty cool. And I just know you’ve been missing more pictures of my face in front of schools. Fine, maybe you haven’t. But I really did fall in love with the Arizona landscape (and all the cacti), so I’ll begin posting those as soon as I download them. Talk soon, jak
