Hey all, just so you know, I'm going back through all of my entries and making it so that only friends can see them (you'll have to be logged in). It's dumb, but I'm paranoid about my students hunting me down and reading something that's inappropriate for them to know. All future entries will be friend-only as well. Sorry about that!

Second snow day in a row! How amazing is a weekend in the middle of the week?!

That bitch made me cry. Not in class, but when I got back to my room (just like Dane Cook, hah). That bitch is my education teacher. I'll talk about her (she's a psycho) and my other new classes later, 'cause I have to eat lunch and go to a meeting about a tutoring position.

I guess I'll just watch a movie on tv, or read my book.

Most of the time we spent with my dad and Laura, since they were the ones who invited us. I had only met Laura once before, when I was like five, about a year after my parents divorced...I didn't remember her at all. Duh. ( Read more... )

So guess what shitty thing my work did today? They called me at 9:30 (remember they semi-fired us all on Friday) in the morning and asked if I could come in right then to petition today. At first I was like sure, but after I thought about it for a second I was like, fuck that! I'd like more notice than that. I mean, I stayed up late yesterday ( Read more... )

So yesterday like my whole office got probably fired. Yes, indeed. We came back and our director was like "the head office called around three and said that our last day of petitioning is Sunday. We might get hired on again for the campaign to get it passed on the ballot, and we'll probably know whether sometime next week." So we're all like ( Read more... )
