since allan and i decided on a place, and will possibly have a date as of this afternoon, i called my parents to tell them the news last night. for future reference, waiting to tell them anything until i have time to be happy is a good idea ( Read more... )

i had a dream that allan and i went to some theme park for vacation. he made me watch part of this ferris wheel ride which i agreed to go on. he only let me watch the slow and calming part of the ride. when we went on it, all of the safety restraints were taken away one by one until it was swinging us around by one ankle. it was awful. they ( Read more... )

i have a hard time respecting the nazi principal of general ed. a lot of the teachers work past contract hours because they want to. which is fine. i work less than contract hours, but that's beside the point. the nazi makes the janitor close the security gate at 4:30 every day. that means that we normally have about half an hour to get out ( Read more... )

the new kid they sent me with goals like, "will use more than 2 word sentences," and "will ask to go to the bathroom," had retarded teachers. this child can talk, joke, and read a little. he didn't know how old he was, so i was guessing while the other teacher looked up his age. i asked if he was 100, and he said, "no, i'm a million." he comes ( Read more... )
