Check, Please

The ladies in the school office, like pretty much all friendly older women everywhere, have decided that I am adorable and that I must be paired up with someone immediately. They picked (what surely must be) the only single male teacher at the school, and told my friend they were going to set me up with him. My friend passed the info on to me, informing me as well that he is, in fact, a hottie - she'd date him herself if she weren't married.

Today a couple of students burst into the classroom asking if I'd "seen the text" - evidently, a rumor is a-boundin' that this particular male teacher just became engaged to one of the female teachers, and she's got a ring to back it up.

I had to laugh. And go burrow back in bed, where I will plan my one-way trip to a Tibetan nunnery.
