Help! I'm in the "Clash of the Titans" loup!

I taught a small Greek mythology unit, and timed it so that the last week of school (this week),  I would show "The Clash of the Titans."  Well, it worked out well, except, I have 6 classes that get to see this movie, and I'm just about ready to pull out my hair (if only I were Medusa, my hair would be snakes, and I could freak out my students). Yeah, it's only a joke, but I do think I know most of the dialogue by heart :-)





Our weather, here in Southern Utah, has finally started to warm up, and dry out.  I really shouldn't say that, since it may jinx our weather.  It's been an amazingly cold Spring. I'm not complaining, mind you, but the hot weather does get to me at times.  We still don't know if we're heading down to California after graduation, but with Summer and Tyler and kids coming down over Memorial weekend, we may stay.  I'm heading to Portland on June 2 for a visit with my mom.  Looking forward to seeing her, and my brothers.  It's Rose Festival week when I get there, and historically, that means rain...we'll see.
I'm excited for the school year to end, and I hope and pray my students use their heads this summer.  There are a couple that don't like me (what's new?), since one of them failed (my Reading for Pleasure class, how hard can that be?), and the other, a cheer leader, got a D-.  Now I'm not making a statement about cheer leaders, but this girl....
