You know you're in the right profession when...

Today, I had a student from 7:30-8:30. Class was going great, and when I surreptitiously checked my phone's clock to go to the next part of the lesson, it was just before 8. Next thing I know, our principal sticks her head in to tell me she's locking up. I ask her what time it is, and she said it was ten after nine! Forty minutes overtime, and my student is too polite to say anything. Not only did I not even notice, I didn't mind. I guess this teaching thing was the right idea....

Conversely, you could argue that my lesson planning needs some tightening, and that I need to by a proper watch.
