Bitchy McBitcherson
I was in a monstrous mood today. Heat + crazy humidity + 24 second graders + It's-Almost-Summer mentality = Kt the Bitch. I chewed out half of my boys at snack time because they were all hitting each other. Then at the end of the day one of my girls started crying because one of the boys (who I CANNOT STAND) said something to her. He wouldn't tell me what he said so I told him we would sit in this classroom until he tells me what he said. After I said We will sit in here until 6 o'clock if that's how long it takes he suddenly remembered what he had said. He said something about how he wants to die, possibly something about how he thinks it would be cool to die. The girl who was crying has a fairly cruddy homelife and she's rather sensitive. So I talked to him about how there are people dying all over the world and I don't think they think it's cool to die. Then I sent him over to CARES and I talked to the woman that runs that. She was actually coming to talk to me about him as well. She said he's always talking about morbid things and drawing demons (she can't stand him either). She also said that my little group of CARES kids is always a problem. No shock there as they're always a problem for me at dismissal.
I want them all to GO AWAY.
I was pretty bitchy all afternoon and then at dismissal, the lights went out (fabulous thunderstorm). That was the only good part of my day. That and the ice cream sandwich I had at lunch time.
Then driving home in the fabulous rain that made the heat sort of go away, I looked in my rearview mirror to see a cop car coming up behind me, lights flashing. I started screaming SHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHIT because I was doing 70 in a 55 (which is down from the 80 I used to do before that last ticket). I just knew he was going to pull me over because that's the kind of day it has been. You cannot imagine my relief when he drove past me. I was so relieved that I nearly cried. Yes, my eyes started welling up. I probably would've cried if he had pulled me over. I would've been that typical girl, instead of the girl who giggles when she gets pulled over (I have no idea why I feel no shame at being pulled over. I wish I could cry my way out of a ticket).
Tonight I'm helping my sister for a bit at this Alex's Lemonade Stand preview thing she's doing and then tomorrow morning I'm helping with the actual stand at her house for a few hours. I have to put on my fake Social Personality that only lasts for two hours, tops, if the people I'm around aren't highly irritating. I have a feeling my SP won't last that long, judging by the mood I'm in.
I only have to see them 9 more days. We're in the single digits now. Thank you, Lord.
