Need More Sleep

Well here it is --- Monday morning...I slept well and I am ready to rock the week.

Disclaimer---Disclaimer---Disclaimer:

I have an amazing capacity for teenage drama. I enter a classroom with buckets full of energy and feigned patience. However, when I am deprived of sleep----WATCH OUT SCOUT!!!

So I must admit that when the grade 9 class that I taught on Friday turned off the lights and started screaming like idiots---I wondered why I CHOSE this career path...

So I turn on the lights and give my rap about how this isn't elementary school anymore...and this one grade 9 girl keeps talking over top of me---and guess what? I'm the boss....and I'm freaking tired!!!! So yah---she pretty much got the brunt of the Duffy-wrath. However, I am a big fan of the whole stare them down with that passive-aggressive pretend-patient "Ok, I'll just wait here until you are finished with needing SO MUCH ATTENTION..."

When out of the silence this girl yells:

"WHY ARE YOU STARING AT ME SO DAMN HARD MISS??????"

Oh the answers that I would have loved to have given her...

but I am a professional, so I gently pointed out that I was staring at her 'so damn hard' because she was effing pissing the hell out me!!!

....KIDDING!!!

Peace, Love and I am a total sucker for inspiration so thank you Sammy P. for getting me back on the Blogging Wagon!
