The desk

I opened my classroom door yesterday to behold a prodigious desk, the likes of which I’ve never seen in a classroom - the same wood tone as the other, the same handles, all drawer fronts intact, not just a desk but an “L” stretching six feet in one direction and a few inches more than that in the other. I’m nicknaming it “The Fortress.”

And then I noticed the chair. The Jolly Green Giant could sit comfortably in that big black executive-style chair.  The last sizable office chair I ran across in a classroom was broken so that it pitched me backward whenever I forgot and leaned back.  I ditched it for fear I’d end up on my back with my feet sticking up in the air.  But this chair you could practically live in. 

Talk about wish fulfillment and then some!
