Just Married

April Fool's! So I'm walking by the math teacher in the hall towards the end of the day and he says, "Congratulations!" I'm thinking, "what the heck is he talking about?" "For what?" I say. "For getting married!" Oh, right. Of course. Guess I forgot to mention this small detail to you, my faithful blog readers. Next question for the math teacher, "Wait. How'd you know....?" Ha, just kidding. Apparently my car told him the big news. I went out to take a gander and this is what I found........

Apparently some of my students thought it would be a good April Fool's trick. Well, they were right. All I could do was laugh. To be honest, probably something I would have done when I was in high school. Most of the oreos attached to my car had been eaten by other students (are you serious?!) by the time I took the picture. My bike rack was also engulfed in toilet paper - took it off before I took the picture. They got me GOOD! Funny thing is early in one of my classes, we were giving presentations and for one of them a student said he needed my help. Well, he proceeded to get on one knee and propose to me as his April Fool's trick.

Shoot. I was trying to come up with a trick to play on my students for like a week, couldn't think of anything good so I gave up. And this is what I got.

Sweet Revenge: Notice the cans of root beer tied to my bumper. I plotted with my headmaster (aka principal) to get my students back. They were both Seniors. He readily agreed and asked, "How far can I push it?" I said, "as far as you can!" He seemed to like that response. He pulled them both into his office, set the cans of root beer on the table and said, "Can you explain this?" He threatened them with not being able to graduate and even went so far as to say I was going to press charges. Oh MAN!! I really wish I could have been a fly on the wall for that one. They were scared out of their minds. We laugh about it now. They had it coming!
