let's get ready to ruuummmmbbblllee

And so my day begins...

Was running a wee late to work this morning (mainly because driving miki's tin can on wheels and i dunno how the hell to work that damn thing)...and of course, i was the ONLY teacher in our team corner. bailey out sick; taylor losing PSI with the quickness and driving more slowly; ware was AWOL. SIGH. So i'm out there directing my 139 kids (lovely darlings) and of course today they're clingy and huggy and wanna be petted (yesterday they were all grown and wanted to be hard). so i have kids hanging on me and tapping me and vying for my attention and someone handed me a paper to put on my desk and i slipped in to do that just in time to see R and E in a pushing match. I said well are you boys gonna fight or dance? they backed off and still mumbled stuff-- i really hate mumbling. so i said either fight and get over with or shut up and drop it. they shut up, so i forayed back into the hall bellowing at kids to move their tails to prime time and clear the corner and all that mess. next thing i know, S is at the door yelling to me that they're fighting and oh no ms c, they're messing up your desks (at least SHE has her priorities straight!). So, i had to break up R and E and hey, didn't i just deal with this once? didn't i already give you guys the opportunity to fight or shut up? SIGH. no one listens. woe is me. ha... so off they go to the rock until peeps come to retrieve their combative darlings.
all this before 8:15...ain't middle school fun????
