What is even happening?
Have more Chris Evans as Golden Retrievers, because it's good for you, good for us, and good for America.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh god, I think I hear the new Big Big Boss out in the hall, and now I'm scared to go to the bathroom.

FYI, it all worked out. I just don't understand why he seems to be based down here today -- all of the big bosses are on a different floor! He sounds very nice, at least.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
The world is a trash fire to the point where I couldn't even listen to last week's West Wing Weekly, but I have hazelnut hot cocoa, so it could be worse.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Guys, my crazy day, let me tell you it. As you might know, I'm long term subbing 7th grade English at a school in a depressed neighborhood. This morning, we had 18 fights break out. 18 separate fights (although some seemed to be sort of linked) between 12 and 13 year olds! We went on lockdown and had to stay inside the classroom for over an hour until they got things calmed down. The head of the English department got punched and shoved while trying to break things up and she had to go home.
I had a tearful meeting with the vice principal yesterday, because I still have three hours that I can't get under control. I know the kids who want to do the work are being affected by the kids who are acting out. They want to hire me once I'm official (they have 20% subistitutes right now) but I'm not sure I can stay. Not because the fights bother me, but because I simply can't get the kids under full control. I don't know...they need teachers badly but the Vice Principal seemed decidedly unenthusiastic about me staying on.
It's a puzzlement.

Scrappy, I honestly don't know how any does what you're doing. It sounds exhausting.

I cannot get into the swing of things this school year. Every morning I'm exhausted and then there is the added potty training for ltc making everything take longer. I don't know any of the kids or parents names.
