This morning, I walked outside to my truck to drive to school. I released the e-brake, and I backed up- except nothing happened.
Long story short, the brake was stuck, the cable broke, and I think I might have blown up the clutch trying to rock the break loose. Renting a car would have involved an extra gouged price- the lowest quote I got was like $60 for one day and about 40 miles. On top of whatever my repair bills will be, that hurts.
So I had to miss a day of the internship and I feel horrible about it. I am stuck at my house worrying how our small groups are going to work without me.
Yesterday went really well without my cooperating teacher there. It's good to know that the majority of the respect and authority I have in the classroom are because of me and no one else. Everything went well except for a random fight that happened at the end of the day. They were supposed to go to the principal's office first thing this morning... but then I didn't show up. It's going to be hard to enforce that 48 hours later.
