**blushing**

So this guy just called who I had helped before, and as he was getting off the phone, he said: "I'm glad this call is being recorded, because you deserve the gold star today. Thank you so much for all your help."

Call me a geek, call me a loser, but that really made my day. I guess if I multiplied that feeling by 100, I'd know what it felt like to have a student say that to a teacher. I do feel kind of guilty, though, seing as how I didn't really do all that much to help him, but hey, I'll take what I can get.

Shucks.
