Those bats look oh so cute, nearly sweet enough to help me overcome my fear of bats!

When I was still teaching, I was staying back late one night to finish proof reading report cards. While engrossed in this task, a bat flew up a set of stairs and into my office. I screamed and the louder I screamed the more the bat circled me. What a sight this must have been. I ended up leaping over my desk, running like a woman possesed out of my office and next door into the Principal's office. The staff downstairs heard all of this commotion and came to my resuce. The story went around the school the next day like wild fire – what a tale for the students to hear about me, their Deputy Principal! Not so funny at the time, but the next day it was hilarious.
