Friday Confessions
1) I had way too much fun last weekend. Thank you all.
2) I ate leftover lasagna for lunch every day this week.
3) I hit the ‘refresh’ button on my Scrabulous games list about a million times. I am an addict, I tell you!
4) I’m tired of the rain, and it’s only October.
How about you?

Don’t care, fuck the man, people suck.
I appear to be a cynical teenager again.

On the other hand, I care to much, fuck the man, people rock.

TOO much. Duh.

My son is eating cookies and watching Star Wars while I try to keep my head (and its hot-lead-filled sinuses) perched upon my flimsy little pencil neck.
I mean Star Wars, ok, that’s happened before, but COOKIES? I never have cookies in the house! But I brought home all the cookies from the preschool meeting, figuring this was weregild for my crappy evening. But Jesus knows I don’t need no cookies. The upside to my son’s hoggitude: soon, there will be no more cookies in the house.

I had a dream of the sexual nature about an ex-boyfriend that I am pretty sure I hate. The dream? Kind of interesting and when I woke up, I wondered if maybe I should have tried harder to make it work with him.
Then again, he was sort of a douche.

PS - your scrabble move. mine was lame, but oh well.

Rachel, maybe you can convince him that he imagined the cookies.
Cynical teenagers totally welcome, Arwen.
Stephanie, a douche is a douche is a douche. There’s a reason you’re not with him anymore.

Late confession: Last night I made a loaded remark to someone that caused her to shriek at me, in front of witnesses, for about 15 minutes. I just stood there going, “Hmm? Uh-huh. Yep.” She almost popped a vein or something, so angry was she.
It was awesome.

Friday was a ProD day. On Monday I’m going to a Union Staff Rep training day. That’s two days out of the classroom away from kids. I’m going to school. And I was grinning, feeling like I’m having two days off. And all of a sudden I realized- going to school is easier than teaching school. Although, admittedly, I don’t have any homework from my two days of school.
But, honest, I do love my job. But not enough to not appreciate a day off work.

Heh. Beth, I was at a ProD seminar some years ago, and the guest speaker pointed out that although teachers can be exhausted at the end of the day, students usually aren’t. She suggested a number of strategies to save energy while getting students to work. However, when it comes down to it, it takes energy to teach well, to make sure that everyone’s getting what they need.
