Chaos

Just updating really quick since I actually got everything done before 9pm and got into bed at 9:30. I’ve been surfing the ‘net a little and decided to blog. Man, I miss this thing. I think I was a lot more sane when I’d write down everything that was bothering me or making me happy every day. I’m still working on slowly publishing my Spring Break draft, but I’ll do that later on (yeah, right…I still haven’t posted the Christmas/Aly’s 1st birthday ones!).

Work’s been….something else the past two days, to say the least. My boss has been home sick and certain students are reveling at the opportunity to act up. It’s been insane. I’m eternally grateful to Elvira for being with me these past two days or else I don’t know what I would have done. Today was definitely better than yesterday, definitely. And it beats Tuesday, too.

Tuesday was a pretty great day, until I got in my truck and noticed a huge crack going in three separate directions and it was spreading fast. Then, when I get to the boys’ school, I get down to talk to the principal and wasn’t surprised to learn that nothing had been done–not even addressed–to her about Jaylen’s missing fundraiser money they told me they lost last week. The whole meeting was for nothing; they basically told me there’s nothing they can do because nobody has it. Grr.

I get home and instead of breathing in nice, cool central air, I breathed in steamy heat and a smoky smell. Stupid air conditioner unit died on us. They didn’t fix it till 9:45. I’d already stated my protest: I wouldn’t go to work if I was sticky from sweating over night. But thank God, we were okay.

We had a Lockdown at work today. A real one. Second one, actually. Considering the area we’re in, I have a feeling we’re going to have many more.

Poor Mario’s having issues at work, too. I don’t even know what to tell him about it. I just want to yell, “TELL THEM TO SHOVE IT ALEADY!” But he won’t.

Dang, I’m tired! I’m actually dozing off and Alaethia just passed out so I think I will, too. My new mattresses are so comfy (we just bought them last week as an anniversary present to ourselves :D) and the air feels so fresh — perfect time for sleeping :).
