What's this all about?

So, my blog is called "Thinking about reading"  because I was hoping to use blogs in some of my English classes, but I hadn't counted on the blog police at the high school where I teach deciding that blogging is something high schoolers shouldn't do.  Now I have a blog with no true purpose except maybe a place to talk about books.....and my beautiful grandbaby.  Oh, and I'm prepared to fight the good fight to get Edublogging into my high school.  See, my plan is to give the assignment this highfaluting name of Edublogging (nope, I didn't invent it) to get it past the firewall.

I'm in! I expect to learn new things and gain insight every day. For now, the clear winner is the confirmation that you ARE a grandmother, and I owe that to your blogging daughter. But, would it be too corny and not highbrow enough to ask to post on the blog the gender and other relevant info? C'mon, Linne. Please? :) Either way, I'm so excited to hear that you are working for change. The Dems caucused in Juneau for the first time, and broke all fire codes as attendees tried to pack in---the vote was over an hour late because they couldn't get everyone registered who wanted to sign up. It was crazy, but crazy wonderful!
