ow. I hurt everywhere. Too many parties to set up for with silly opening night festivities. If it wasn't for new place, I'd skip it all. Ugg gotta shower and gussy up.
Ow.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

FIVE TEACHERS!!!??
That should cluestick the Admin, shouldn't it?
You would think, huh. My school lost 20 teachers at the end of last year (which is about normal, now). Of the new county hires, we had one third of the list. For at least the last 3-5 years my school has had the most hires in the district.
Does the county level administrateion get a cluestick? nope.
Erin, I'm so sorry your school was as bad a situation as it was. I, too, am glad you got out. Working in a toxic environment can be such a dangerous thing. Much job ~ma for you.
Pix, I'm sorry you are having trouble with some of your kids. I hope today was just a "passing mood" for them and they realize what an amazing teacher they have as well as all the opportunities they will have in your class.
IOmemeN: Today my English 3 students had time to work on note taking skills (required by the curriculum). They had to ready 12 pages of intro stuff and take notes they will use to take a quiz. They complained for the entire 40 minutes they had to work and did everything but the work assigned. I'm sure they won't do it as homework, either.
It was a real craptastic day. Before 5:30 this morning, the bowl I was making breakfast in broke and my computer died. Six months ago this same computer had the logic board go bad and now it is acting exactly the same. Right now it's a wonderful doorstop. I'm probably going to have a take a personal day to take it to a Mac store in Tampa. On the up side, the mall the Mac store is at is amazing.
I think I'm going to lose myself in a book for the night. There is a faculty meeting at 7am tomorrow...ugh. DD at that time of the morning is never good.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
{{{Erin}}} All kinds of job~ma to you.
{{{Scrappy}}} I hope the eval doesn't go as badly as you think.
My school lost 20 teachers at the end of last year
Holy smokes. How many teachers does your school have? We lost 2 at the end of last year. We have 44 teachers on staff.
I'm still at school. I'm done with work, but it's raining like Gustav made his way up here and I'm trying to wait it out till I run out to my car.

GC, we're not trying yet, but I have in increased risk of having a child with spina bifida. So, I really need to be on it in case there is an oops with the birth control.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Major cutiehead Evan, and Auntie Ali's looking good too!
