12 of 12 v. 2.0 September edition!
Yes, I'm aware it's only just after 6pm, but frankly I'm tired and not planning to go anywhere, so the evening would be pics of me watching Grey's Anatomy all night. BORING! So... You get what you get! :)
As always, the brains behind all this is Chad Darnell. Visit his page over the next few days to see other people's days. :)
I swear every other clock in my house said 12:00, so I'm counting it. :P So there. Before I went to bed, I decided to update and check on my fundraising page for the 2008 Overnight walk for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. No donations yet. :( So sad. But the page is all updated and pretty! Go see it!
And settling into bed to finish up the first episode of season 3 of Grey's Anatomy which arrived from Netflix yesterday. :) I got into it because the goddess who is Audra McDonald is going to be on Private Practice and I wanted to be versed. And I'm hooked. :) One...well, two of the reasons for getting DVR with cable. (Californication is the other primary reason.)
My view when I wake up. :) My signed in person by the goddess who is Vanessa Redgrave (after I waited an hour and a half) and then framed window card for The Year of Magical Thinking. And of course his majesty Benjamin Coffin the Bird. Well...ok, I'd gotten up and peed first. Hence him being uncovered. Also had chucked another captured in a priority mail box mouse into the street. I temporarily forgot it was 12 of 12 or I would have taken a pic of said mouse.
My classroom! I can actually do a horseshoe shape now!! Yay! I got two more kids today. And learned at the end of the day when they finally gave me the IEP on one of them that I will likely be losing one because he's 8:1:1 and I'm 12:1:1. Pity. My Wicked Witch of the West routine was really already snapping him into shape.
No real reason for this other than everyone is always like "Oh you've got a pink phone! That's so cute!" (Or our lit coach who said "That's so femme.") So now everyone can see my "cute pink phone".
For some nutty reason, they gave me gym AND ADL (activities of daily living) on Wednesday. So one is prep and one is a team-teach. Since my para has lunch when they have ADL, gym is the prep (only I lost it today ~ so now the next one they have to pay me for). In ADL I got new kid who will likely be leaving on Monday for another class to actually do things. Like work. Lots of "First color, then bus." and alternating that. Since his back is completely towards the camera I felt safe in using it. He did so well, Ms. J rewarded him by letting him use the sewing machine. He was totally psyched!! Even after a day, I'll miss him. :(
Checking my school email. This warning screen says my password is about to expire and would I like to change it now? (They actually do stick to the every 90 days thing which is a pain in the ass!) In the ultimate example of how ass-backwards the DoE does things, look at my computer. Yes. It's a Mac. What do you have to use to change the passwords? Mmmhmm. A PC. Charming n'est-ce pas?
After school I had to go to the TRS offices to drop off proof of my citizenship or birth or something. A copy of my passport sufficed. And I had to do my benificiary info for my TDA account. Yeah...they couldn't get a copy of the citizenship stuff the DoE has NOR could they just click a button and say "beneficiaries the same for TRS and TDA". That would be too easy.
Home and checking the mail. That first thing is something that goes to someone who is totally not here and I have no clue who he is. Joy! I guess since it says "or current resident" I can't send it back with "no longer at address". File 13 time.
Dinner and Dr. Phil. Yes. Dinner is brown rice, lima beans and cinnamon applesauce. Until a financial issue gets resolved (hopefully in the next day or so) my meals will look like this. Or oatmeal. Fun!
And of course since RICE was involved, Benny had to come and snag some. He didn't seem interested in the limas though. Weird. And yes, the pink phone is in there too.
Checking out new-ish pics on the Julianne Moore fansite gallery. Isn't Liv cute? I'm not loving the blonde on Julianne (the ultimate goddess), but I give her mad props for making the decision that it fits her character in Blindness (which is going to rock the hell out of the movie theatres next year!!) and doing it...THEN emailing the director to tell him. LOL. She's been quoted as saying she can't wait to get back to red. :P Hooray!
And my 13th bonus pic (almost forgot!!)
Our word was "unexpected". I did not expect it to be THIS sunny when I left. Ergo my sunglasses were left at home. Wonderful!
So that's it. My wonderful day. Bored yet? :P
