one very disturbing....

article about people being stopped at Immigration on Facebook. How long will this go on?
  Not much to report about the last two days. Worked at Friends. My classes were the entire sophmore classes (four of them). They were happy to see me, and the energy was very positive. I showed the same two videos all four time---still remain quite spastic when it comes to adjusting the picture on the computer which then gets adjusted to the room screen. But the kids helped me out--they don't seem bothered by more spasticness and all went well.
  More tension than usual. I think this may be because the momentum that I had after the first three days of last (beginning 2/6) week was stopped cold by the storm and then by the teacher I was supposed to sub for canceling his day off---which resulted in my staying home last Friday. Just sailing along, until that happened. Of course, the teacher had his flight canceled by the snow, and was completely justified in taking the day back---I completely understand that---but still, I have to deal with the drop in momentum, just as I had to do on this Tuesday and Wednesday when there was no work. I will be subbing Tuesday (eighth grade, one of my favorite classes---assuming they behave)---after that it is opened---expect some work to follow, but not sure how much---will deal with it.
  Absolutely no night life since Sunday---even on days that I don't teach, the 5A.M. to 8A.M. corridor that I am completely focused on takes its toll, and therefore, all days this week, I was asleep by 8:30 P.M., with the awakening coming early in the morning. Now, with the three days off, perhaps I can change that---feel very wide awake and lively this morning, and can plan for the evening.
  After much "deliberation" have decided to see the two one acts at Ars Nova, one written by my friend Ben, and the other by a female playwright whom I know. Seems like the best idea---will be among friends, though the thought of going into the Bronx to see Documentary Los Sures at Bronx Documentary Center and hanging out there was very tempting. Also, will definitely miss The Tempest at Saint Ann's. But that is the way it is, with so many projects happening at the same time.
Tomorrow, one of my rare Sunday matinees, at Playwrights Horizons, the debate society project. Had to go, since it was the only time that cheap tickets were offered. Tomorrow is supposed to be a beautiful day, so hopefully can get some walking in afterwards, and spend the rest of the day in Brooklyn, hopefully most of it at South Fourth. Monday is open--will improvise my way through it.
 That is all for now, will report soon...
