In 2nd grade I told the teacher I did clean the chalkboard erasers.

But I really didn't. I was staring out the window daydreaming instead.

Whew. Okay. I feel so much better now.


Yes, we had chalboards. I'm THAT old.

My wife was an expert at washing chalk boards and cleaning erasers. She had to do it at least once a week in high school for talking in class. She is a sociable person.

I’m going to give my age away too. Our class picture was a petroglyph on a cave wall.

Wow. Through the past, darkly, or what?

I haven't thought about standing outside on a cold winter day banging the brushes together and watching the dust vanish on the wind for decades. Probably many decades.

Guess I'm THAT old too. At least I did actually clean the darn things, so the memory doesn't haunt me.
@FrozenWasteland fallen in rabbit hole of my past

@Bexsy Apparently the past is just full of rabbit holes. No wonder I can't remember anything without twisting my ankle.

Soooo....I thought you still did that at work.
@MagnumPI that's beside the point.

You need to track down that teacher and apologize immediately.

I'd say the odds are pretty good the teacher knew....

Huh. Stones to draw on the side of cliffs here... 😏

Sadly I am that old too. I have definitely cleaned the erasers far more than once. I never minded though. 🙂
