This video showed up in my YouTube feed this morning. I shared it on Facebook before I even got out of bed! It made me think of my first year teaching and when I learned that a colleague shared my love for U2! Well, he’s a guy so he really doesn’t love Bono like I do but he likes the music!
It was either during my first for my second year teaching that we ended up driving to the U2 concert together. We got tickets separately and realized that we were going the same place so my brother and I drove with him and a couple more colleagues. He actually picked out the T-shirts that I still have because I was on Canadian crutches then and it was too far to walk for me.
I have been thinking about my first years teaching, cleaning my classroom, or grading papers/ entering grades into the computer and listening to a best of U2 CD. It was back when I worked way too much in order to get by craft established.
Maybe now my YouTube feed will be flooded with U2 videos. That wouldn’t be a bad thing…
