I'm Such A Baby

Why do my friends make me cry in the morning?!  My good friend, Savannah Guthrie, you know from the Today show? She announced she was pregnant and of course I watched the video this morning and it made me weepy.  Why do I cry at the drop of a hat?  Such a loser I am.

In other news - we had a weird lockdown yesterday, during lunch.  Completely unannounced.  Apparently they wanted to see how things would go in an emergency situation during lunch.  They needed to see where problem areas were.  I have to say, lockdowns like this are so unrealistic.  And let me tell you too, given an emergency situation (shooter etc.) you know I'm not sitting under my desk.  Nope, my ass is out the window and running - either for my car with as many kids in tow or straight to the fire station. 

Lets see...Walking Dead was a doozie this weekend.  Love that show.  Love the zombie apocalypse (it's going to happen people...I hope you're ready!).  I don't think I'd survive very long although the zombies aren't runners and I think I could outrun them...at least for a little while.

Have I mentioned lately how ready I am for Spring Break?  My autistic kids are driving me nuts.  I've got one that asks me every 5 seconds if  he can do this or do that or he tells me he's going to do this or write that (I almost wrote every 5 minutes but it happens much more frequently than that) things he's supposed to be doing.  I want to yell sometimes, "JUST DO WHAT I JUST ASKED YOU TO DO AND QUIT TELLING ME WHAT YOU'RE DOING EVERY 5 SECONDS!!!"  But I don't.  Then I have another autistic kid who smacks kids upside the head for no apparent reason.  Except that she has a crush on her poor victim I think.  This is the girl, by the way that ate $60 worth of cafeteria food in the space of less than a month.  And finally I've got "The Mumbler".  This spaz huffs and puffs and talks under his breath from across the room - thinking, I guess, that I'm listening to his crazy rants.  He's the biggest autistic annoyance in my life.  UGH!  Thank God a whole week off is in my near future.

Okay, well, I best get ready to face another day...living the dream.  Happy Tuesday!  Later!
