My Incredibly Unremarkable Life

My students have an exam tomorrow. I've got it rough-drafted, but now it has to be typed. Because about half of it is multiple guess, I do three versions. The questions are the same, but in different order, and I switch about the answer choices.

I was working on this a while yesterday evening, and I THINK I've got at least 100 points of questions. Actually, I think it's a bit more. I spoil those kids, and if they blow this opportunity they deserve to fail.

The unit is Ancient Rome, and if you recall anything from your history classes about that era you know that the Punic Wars (between Rome and Carthage) were pretty important to the collapse of the Roman Repubic and subsequent development of the Roman Empire. Yet I got an e-mail from a student asking if she needed to know anything about them.

Besides, it's on the Study Guide.

And the side of my face is still a bit flushed. I'm up to the third drug, not counting the ear drops.

On to the exam-typing!
