File Under: Teaching Is Never Boring

I'm directing a musical for the spring, and I chose it based on one very simple criterion: it features an Egyptian sarcophagus.

What can I say? I'm easy.

So today when I was informing my students of this amazing discovery, I mentioned that my only real worry was that we were going to have a build a sarcophagus. To which I got this reply:

"Ooh, Ms. Flower! We can totally use the coffin I have in my garage!"

I had no response. Like, how WOULD one respond to that? I mean, I know all those words, but I never thought I would hear them in the same sentence together.

My life is weird.
