Hegemom de Sade

Is it twisted that I love overhearing stuff my classes say about me?

Today I heard one of the guys say, "wow, [she's] strong" and the other agree, "very strong."

Last week, one of the longtime students told another that I was "the meanest teacher." The response was that I was the meanest right after Cindy (Cindy being the one who induced major leg cramps in me when I took her class a year ago.)

Never mind that I have to ice my knees when I get home from class-- it's so worth it!
