She wasn't pissed at the girl for accidentally hitting her. I'm not sure she was even pissy. She was just overwhelmed at the fact that there was such a stupid fight going on at all, for basically no reason. So man of our kids have the emotional maturity of... well, severely deprived 14-year-olds with crappy home lives. It's very tough, and these insane altercations make it so obvious how slowly we're helping, if we're really helping at all (I think we are).
Mostly, she just doesn't like teaching. I can shrug things like this off, and still enjoy the job. She can't, because she doesn't really enjoy it. At all. I mean, she was
already
going to the occasional job interview on the pseudo-sly. This day just made it more certain.
Wow. I had no idea that half all teachers left the field within five years.
I'm not surprised, sadly.
Oh, amy. I hope you find the dog with minimal fuss.
Oh amy, I hope the fuzzbutt is found quickly and safely. How stressful.
Then I told him he'd have to meet Buffistas, and he was all, "But I like the ones I've met!" Which is only 3, but still, he's game.
::shimmy dance of whoot::
He's a nice guy.
Oh, amych, I hope you find the dog, or he finds you, PDQ.
I have 600 new messages in Natter. Teh hell?
I am afeared to go in there.
Cass, they're basically harmless. Buffista trivia quizzes might not interest you, but they aren't harmful.
Cass, it's all fun and games in there. Also shits and giggles. Really! Not even a kerfauxffle.
Poor amych doggie! Bad, bad furnace people! Vibing home-ma to the pup.
Heh. Glad to know we didn't burn the place down today.
I was just coming back to say that, in retrospect, we might have been discussing lunch.
I'll wander over there once I have some time to read and giggle.
amych, may his furry butt come home soon. Effin' furnace guys.
