Just another manic Monday...

Yes, I grew up in the wrong decade.  I feel more in touch with the 70s and 80s than I do the 90s.  That is more in reference to the song than the day I had today, but while we are on the subject...

My love for the great Gilda Radner is making appearances in totally ridiculous places.  I called my co-teacher on my way home from a meeting this afternoon because I passed Gilda's Club Way.  Now all the little smiley signs around the city are for Gilda... Unfortunately, I left my Gilda book at school.  I'm not even sure why it's there.  I just know that it is in my desk, and I'm finding it difficult to read 30 miles away. 

Another reason I'm from the wrong generation?  I love Melissa Gilbert, Alison Arngrim, Marie Osmond, Lisa Whelchel, The Facts of Life, Who's the Boss, One Day at a Time, Different Strokes, Little House on the Prairie, and old school SNL.  Let's be real, Jane Curtain and Roseanne Rosannadanna are fabulous!

Right... back to my teaching day.  My voice is SO over this day.  My 4th-6th hours were just unable to shut their little mouths.  And I wish their mouths were little, but whoa, these kids can be SO loud.  I felt a little cheated because we didn't have an ISS room today.  Super.  Another promise unfulfilled.

Then I had to go to this stupid meeting.  By stupid meeting, I mean my co-teacher and I didn't really talk to others much.  I guess that's why we are the "plastics." (Think Mean Girls...)  After the meeting, we walked out and the ELA teacher was getting out of hers.  She thought her meeting was a waste of time too.  At least it wasn't just me!

On a high note, I think God has decided that it might be time to help me through the storm by picking me up and running rather than just guiding me through.  I have been exhausted and stuck in a pessimistic mood for at least a month now, but now I'm feeling a little lighter.  I'm even considering coaching cheerleading!  Hopefully tomorrow is a better day than today!
