Current Mood: Annoyed

I hate the Sunday after a long break. It’s not that I don’t want to go to school tomorrow, I just want to get it over with. Teachers understand what I am talking about. The only thing I dread about going back to school is dealing the fucktard adults, and while I haven’t said much about them this year, they fucking breed where I work. Either that or they have some magnetic attraction to me and they find me.

I was also so excited about being the freshman class advisor, but my partner is such an asshole, that he is making it very difficult for me to enjoy it. You know the type…a male chauvinist pig. He doesn’t want to do shit, but wants to make sure he is involved in the decision making. I think I posted about the day he sandbagged me in the hallway and was incredibly rude because I scheduled a class meeting without checking with him first. So, after I let him know how displeased I was by his behavior, I asked him what he wanted to do; you know, split tasks. He never did answer that one. Why commit to doing work? Asshole. He makes me want to quit. I am tired of doing all the work. ugh.

I won’t even go into the stories of my new co-teacher, but you can imagine. Seriously, I think there ought to be a law about how old someone should be to teach and at what level. A twenty-two year old should not be teaching high school. A twenty-two year old also needs to have surgery to have their head removed from their ass before they are assigned to teach with me. I have a very low tolerance for Cranial Rectosis. Everyone keeps saying, “Oh Chatty, he’s young. Give him time, he will be a good teacher.” YOU DON’T HAVE TO FUCKING TEACH WITH HIM. No common sense and he’s an idiot. Anybody can take a lesson plan off the internet and teach it verbatim.

OK, I probably need to stop typing now. I am now all wound up.

Why can’t teaching be about kids?

I can always tell when my period is right around the corner. It’s about the same time that my husband drives me up a fooking wall. Today, I wanted to kill him. Thirty minutes later, I found out why.

It’s the first time in six years the Pats haven’t made the playoffs and it’s the first time in six years I am totally relaxed. The SuperBowl will be the best anyway due to the halftime show!

No more Blog 365. sigh. I love it!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Current Mood: Happy

I just spent my entire day cooking. I made my spaghetti sauce and meatballs to use in the lasagna I am making tomorrow. I also made the creme dementhe chocolate brownies for tomorrow as well. We are supposed to go to a party tonight up at the lake, so I’ve been making food for that too. Hopefully the snow will stop. I am tired!

I hope you all have a great night tonight and stay safe and I wish you all a very Happy New Year.

Today is also the last day of Blog 365 for me. I am officially done. So, I will see you on the flip side when I damn well feel like it!

I signed up for FaceBook back in June. I had always been hesitant to do so because, as a teacher, it could bite me in the ass. I don’t have anything out there that is objectionable, but I have heard so many stories about professionals being caught with their pants down, so to speak.

Since signing on I’ve used it primarily to keep up with alumni college Greek life and my current friends. Lately, my past has come back. High school has entered the building. Now, I’ve gone to reunions and they’ve been ok. I know I’ve posted about them here. But this is different. People have been posting old photos of things I remember so clearly, but it’s also bringing back other memories too.

I had a good high school experience, but I am totally not the same person now that I was then. People who have seen me since often comment on that. The same is happening on Facebook. Then it makes me think…why do some of these people want to connect with me? It’s just odd. I will take it as it is I suppose.

It’s fun to reconnect and remember the past, but the present and the future seem so much more promising to me.

I know that Christmas isn’t all about getting gifts, but spending time with family and watching the faces of the little kids light up when their wishes from Santa were granted. I get all that.

But…there is nothing like the face of a big kid when her wishes from Santa were granted too!

This is just a sampling of the stuff I received. I really am grateful!

I was thrilled to get pots for Christmas. Calphalon!
