My Teacher, Open to Tremendous Growth and Change

Mounting evidence shows that my physically present teacher is a child revealed:

(1) Our teacher is excited before lunch. He has received a phone call from his electronic owl (think: Harry Potter, but whatever) confirming that all his hard work has paid off: University of Florida's Medical School is going to do a staff development in which the ENTIRE faculty (then the whole school, eventually) attends a "Rave for Death." I would get carpal tunnel even attempting to explain this here. [I just want to point out that that would SO never happen in San Francisco's med school, so all y'all sf-haters can drop it.]

(2a) Our teacher is crushed after lunch when we all come back in the room, for someone, someone, someone [no, not me, relaaaaaax] has RAISED THE VENETIAN BLINDS (gasp).

(2aa) He is at first disappointed and quite concerned that the pulled up window blinds will make it extraordinarily difficult for the Power Point/slide show final projects to manifest themselves with any clarity.

(2b) Our teacher is amazed to learn that the blinds slide down to cover the window.

(2c) Our teacher beams, clapping his hands and like a cheerleader he praises continually the co-op dwelling fellow (who is a child revealed himself) who pulls them down with great mastery so we can see someone's slide show. "Magnificent," he remarks, amazed shaking of head while grinning. "You are doing a truly magnificent job with that."


(2d) Our teacher beams like he dropped e for the remainder of the day.

(3) Our teacher, beaming. He is really quite cute, actually.
