Another Note to Self

Dear Self,
In the future, please try to keep better track of your students. When one of them goes home sick, try to notice this fact on your own, without assistance from other students. And definitely don't say to the rest of your class, "Where on earth is R?" because then you'll feel really, really stupid when they tell you he went home sick two hours ago because he threw up in the bathroom.

Perhaps, self, you're attempting to ensure that you win the "Least Attentive Teacher" award. Be assured that this award, in fact, does not exist, and is not an honor you really want on your record.

Seriously, self, get it together and start being a better teacher!

Sincerely,
Mrs. N.
