On the corner of bitter and sweet

Today was my last day in my classroom. I'm a trifle sad, but I'm also looking forward to what the future holds for me, namely, the absence of an 84-mile-a-day commute.

I will miss the school, the students, and my wonderful colleagues, but it's time to move on. A la John Green's "Thoughts from Places", here's me saying goodbye to room 202
