he loves to travel.....

So this morning, cityboy took matters into his own hands, and wanting a break from his normal non-substsituting routine, took the 3 to the L to the M, to discover Ridgewood. Never been there before, outside of Bushwick, had a very normal, small town almost, relaxed quality---but there wa a reason for this. Since he is getting computer calls from atleast two schools in Ridgewood, he figured he might go there and see a little of them for himself, or atleast figure out how to get there, should he ever accept their invitation to sub. Both trips were satisfactory---spoke to a few teachers on the run, who assured me that the children in these 6 to 8 grade schools, were "reasonably" well behaved. Now there is that word: reasonably---it has a large scope, could mean anything from easy to handle, to prone to start fights unless they are on a long leash. Anyway, got good vibes from both, atleast now I know how to get there...sort of demystify the vision of the place.
Not much else to report---will tutor Lena this evening, then off to South Fourth, (too tired to go there, yesterday) and then.......
