I Read Banned Books

It’s up to you, I Read Banned Books readers, lovers, lurkers, and haters, to fill my life post with joy comment love today.

Indeed, I can.  Every once in a blue moon a teacher recognizes a ball-busting administrator such as me publicly. This was posted on the school’s staff chat forum today by my new favorite math teacher:

Just a quick thanks to our Deans (CajunVegan and Princess Ewe) for doing an outstanding job.  It’s good to be at a school that doesn’t allow habitual offenders to steal instructional time from other students that do well in class.  Additionally, I believe that as long as we teachers follow progressive discipline, the Deans will support us.  Have a great week folks. Again, thanks to Deans CajunVegan and Princess Ewe.

While I may have a thankless job most of the school year, today I really felt warm and fuzzy.

I know I have mentioned it before but Sunday is the only day that Boog and I have off together.  We try to make the best of our time together; however, his working swing shift (8 PM until 4 AM) often leaves us with just a few hours together.

1.  Slumber – Ain’t nothin’ finer than sleepin’ in on a bright Sunday morn next to my snoring snuggle buddies — Spenser and Boog.

2.  School work – Boog has his math and political science this semester.  I have expulsion packets.  Somehow I don’t think I should be busier than he is, but I am.  WTF?!?!?!

3.  Saints – Who dat say they gonna beat dem Saints?  Who dat?  Who dat?

4.  Shia – I would not kick him out of bed for eating crackers.  Eagle Eye was excellent by the way, and I am not just saying that because I have a huge, inappropriate older lady crush on Mr. LaBouef.  But, OMG, he is lickable!

5.  Sushi – We attended the weekly worship service at the Church of Sushi.  Salmon was the catch of the day and featured in nearly every roll we ate.

6.  Shopping – While I wish we had been to the mall or the bookstore, we ventured out to Hellmart for a new Sonicare toothbrush.  The one we had for nearly eight years finally died.  Sadly, I can never go back to a regular toothbrush again.

7.  Sweet Love – Get your mind out of the gutter.  While relations are definitely in order, we ended our adventure with the 31 flavors kind of sweet.

This post was coincidentally brought to you by the letter S.  Shhhhhh!  It’s sexy sleepy time.

Just when I thought I had seen and heard it all, a middle schooler taught me how to do this.  This video is another reason why I will continue to have a job as a school disciplinarian.

Overheard in my office today after the fourth mean girl came through the door:

Me: I do not make idle threats.  You are suspended for five days, and I will call school police if you continue to harass and intimidate her or if you follow through with your own threats and commit battery.  This is a campus disturbance, and I have had enough of your foolishness.  You will be arrested and go to alternate placement to finish the school year.

Student: I do not make idle threats either, Miss.  I’m gonna kick her triflin’ ass for realz now.

And she probably will did.  What a fucktacular week!   I worked about 62 hours and suspended 33 students.  Who’s your daddy now?

Bring on the alcohol.  It will save the world.  I don’t know how, but it will.  Every good person should believe in something.  I believe I will have another.  Kampai!

Being overworked and underpaid has had me a little down in the dumps the last few days.  Today I went in search of the funny on the Internet and found items for a Thursday Thirteen that puts the giggles in the shits or the laughs in the craps.

1.  Thought for the Day:  Every morning all the stupid people get together and plan ways to make your life more difficult.

2.

3.  Automatic doors make me feel like a Jedi.

4.

5. Well, aren’t you just the most adorable black hole of need?

6.

7. I’m not a wine lover.  I’m a fermented grape nut.

8.

9.Why are you still here?  The stupid people left hours ago.

10.

11. This is me mocking you from a safe distance.  Freak.

13. I can kick your ass without even smearing my eyeliner.
