All Swolled Up

I don't know what I did but my eye is all puffy and swollen. It feels like someone punched me. Actually, what I think happened is that when I washed my face last night, I got soap in there and then I rubbed it and then it got all swolled. Ugh! I look like a prize fighter. Well, maybe a losing prize fighter. I guess I would be such a prize if I lost though, would I? I'm sure today every other kid will ask about it. I should come up with a funny answer. Maybe I'll say, "I'm a black belt in karate. This isn't my first black eye." 

You know, considering it was a short week, it sure did creep by. I can't tell you how happy I am that it's Friday and I don't really have any plans. And I don't really want to make plans. I am a loser. 

Oh, I probably should have started with this. Maybe I tried (and succeeded) to block it from my mind...for a bit at least. Anyway, Jim sent a text to his boss saying Are you ready for me to start back on Monday? And the response was, Uh, not for probably 2 weeks. I'm so disappointed and pissed. Jim told him weeks ago that February 26th was the day and I don't understand why he couldn't have something for him. I guess it's a slow time but it's just so fucking annoying. Well, I guess this too shall pass. I just have to be patient and take advantage of Jim being home for a little while longer. 

One of my dumb asses, I mean students, got suspended for 5 days yesterday for vaping pot in the bathroom. These kids are so fucking stupid. I can't tell you how many kids get caught vaping (pot or just regular vaping) every day. With as many that get caught, I wonder how many get away with it. My student who got busted? She's one of my kids who is constantly on the edge of failing classes (go figure) and I'd just gotten her to a point where she was ahead of the game. I guess she'll be failing the quarter considering we only have 2 weeks left. 

BTW - he did make progress with the basement yesterday and this weekend I'll go down there with him and really go to town. There's so much junk that should just be tossed. There are also things I just don't know what to do with. Like dozens and dozens of CDs. Maybe I'll send Jim to Half Price to sell them. Hmm...

Dinner tonight will be soup and grilled cheese. I pulled some Brunswick. 

Normally on a Friday - since Jim's been home - we meet at Shooters but Jim has a periodontist appointment today at 3:00. That's okay though we spend too much time/money there anyway. 

K - time to get going. Happy Friday! Happy weekend. Later!b
