The Big Three

So, to coincide with the Olympic unit the Social Studies teacher I work with has been working on this week, I threw in a quick little unit on Greek Mythology. The Olympics are Greek... it fits. Plus, I love Greek Mythology. Always have. Always will. I often wish that I lived in a society that worshipped a whole pantheon of gods as opposed to this whole single God business. It just makes more sense to me... anyways... when you're talking about Greek gods, they talk about "The Big Three" - Zeus, Hades and Poseidon. They were the first big gods. The ones to reckon with. The ones with the weaponry who defeated the Titans. Sounds good to me. I wish at least one was female, but you can't have everything.

The Big Three I'm referring to here is the last three weekends of my life that will be committed to working at this unnamed farm in southern NH. Three more weekends... six more days of BS and then my life will return to some semblance of normalcy. I'll have time to breathe, time to enjoy and I'll be able to spend time with my love doing what WE want to do. Hallelujah. It's getting closer.
