Gone Gone?

I may have to stop reading Gone with the Wind. The desperately situated and harshly manipulative protagonist Scarlett O’Hara brings me consternation and bad days.

Or maybe my bad days are because students go crazy when we have early release days, which describes all this week due to bad weather and mid-year exams. It seems that it’s all I can do to reign in a wee bit of sanity in my little classroom, which I would like to be a literary haven but too often becomes a dungeon of rowdiness.

But I’m tired of thinking about this. Maybe I’ll go read more.
