Alone Again, Naturally

So, I'm at work, almost entirely by myself.

I mentioned before that one of my teachers told me that there was a school trip this week. Well, my other school didn't know anything about it, and none of my other teachers at this school mentioned it (including my supervisor, whose responsibility it is to make sure I know of any changes to the schedule), so I began to assume that the one teacher who did mention it was only referring to the 2nd graders, and that the rest of the school was on the regular schedule.

Not so, not so.

I rode up to the school this morning, and there were 5 or 6 big charter buses, overflowing with students. All of the students, and all of the teachers, and all the King's horses, and all the King's men, are gone. The secretary is still here, and the cleaning lady, and probably the principal (his office door is closed), though I haven't actually seen him.

I predict today will be quite boringuneventful. On the other hand, I will definitely have time to pay my bill. So I've got that going for me. Which is nice.
