    Random events of the day

    Things are slow here, but I feel compelled to report the 2 most random events of the day.

    1)Finding a bullet casing on the playground at recess (fun, right?).

    2) I brought sparkling apple cider to school so my students could do sensory writing (how did it look, taste, smell, etc). After pouring small samples, I had about 1/4 of a bottle left. I snapped the plastic top back on. Driving home, I must've hit a few too many pot-holes because I heard the top pop off inthe backseat. So what do I do? Pull over, re-cap the bottle, bring it to the front seat, and strap it into the passenger side seat-belt. My reign on dork-dom continues.

    We're not striking, oh wait yes we are. Just kidding, we're going to take the union president down? Nope, just mediation before a RE-VOTE in December- 4 days before the winter holiday! We need to know what's going on, and before the new year so that we can make financial adjustments. Just HOW much will the district take away???? Hmmm....

    So many thoughts, so little motivation, a lot- WHOLE LOT- of stress...And I want to be done with it all. Would be nice to have someone to come home to and vent too. Instead I'm still left wondering if I'll be able to afford to stay in my current apartment. My brother's GF is preggers, and he owes me money for the plane ticket to our grandma's funeral. When questioned, he said, "I talked to mom and dad and they said they'd take care of it." Grrr... It's not so much about the money as it is for YOU (brother) to take responisbility for something. If you can't pay me back- I created a 4month and a 6.5 month plan for you to pay me back- how in hell are you going to support a baby and a nursing mother?! No sense.

    To top it all off, "Glee" didn't come on last night (pety? Yes, but 1 luxury in life is always nice).

    I'm just frustrated and greatly in need of a hug....

    Did JET just actually send me an e-mail saying that I can reapply?! Oh so tempting right now with everything going on here, the economy, potential strike, high unemployment rate, politicians micro-managing underpaid and over worked teachers... Will have to think on this one for a while... Maybe it's time to go away again...
