You So Crazy

There's an application on Facebook, whereby people are asked questions about their friends. A question pops up, along with a friend's photo, and the user answers the question in a sentence or two.

I don't participate in the application, but when somebody answers a question about me, it pops up on my page and I am able to see the answer that my friend provided. Most recently, one of my former students got this question:

If Janet had to run naked around time square for 1 million dollars, would she do so?

And this was the student's answer:

when she was my teacher she was crazy so yes i think she would

Crazy? Really? Theatrical, maybe. Over-the-top, sure. But crazy?

Sure, things like this and this and this and this and this don't help my case. Oh, yes, and there was the party where I invented the Otter Shots concept. And, this demonstration of me "teaching" is not exactly first-rate.

Oh.

Well.

This is not where I thought this post was going--my initial reaction was to beg to differ--but now that I've reviewed all THAT business (and that's just the tip of the iceberg), I'm thinking maybe crazy is possibly an apt description. I'm also thinking that law school is making me lose my edge. This dull old law building has sucked out some of my crazy, but, people, I'm DETERMINED TO GET IT BACK. All the best memories have a little crazy in the mix.

I am determined to do the`same! I, too, was a "crazy" teacher, but it seems that being a mom has taken a lot of that craziness away and replaced it with sweatpants, toes that are in desperate need of a pedicure, and a boring bob haircut!

Fun! Can I come along?

You have been crazy since the first day I met you. Nothing's different...except we hang out less, maybe thats your problem. You need a square like me to remind you to be crazy.

Yeah, we really miss you. You are the only person who could offer students Otter Shots and still be rehired in a flash during a recession. Life is more fun with you in it for sure.
