Freshman writing antics:

The other day I was teaching freshman writing in the 2nd of 3 back-to-back small groups, and I went to put something on the dry erase board and got a huge strong whiff of magic marker even though it was far away from my face.

"Man, that's strong," I paused and said.

Then, I immediately went into character, pulled the uncapped marker up to my nose, sealed one nostril and went to take a whiff, and, staring upward with one eyelid fluttering in apparent ecstasy, talked apparently to myself in a twangy voice, "Oh Lord, please help me get through just one more section, please, I ask you, just one more!".
