Testing went well yesterday. The girl I proctored was no problem at all and thankfully I didn't annoy her with any weird sounds or movements. She even told me at the end when I asked her if I annoyed her too much that I was better than most. A high compliment!
I managed to get a lot done in the 3 1/2 hours of sitting on my duff. Mostly I completed some paperwork, got a really good start on my progress reports and worked on a report for an upcoming evaluation.
That dumb mother fucker is coming to Cincinnati today. Thankfully he'll be far away from my house but I did hear he'll be in Hebron which is near Trip and Susan. I'm sure traffic will be all messed up in that area. He's also going to Reading and I was afraid that Jim would have to be near there but he's in Blue Ash instead.
We had a meeting after school yesterday so they could introduce our new principal. It's the dude I figured it would be. He's 34 and clearly a young whipper snapper with a lot of big ideas and hopes for finding his "family" at our school. Poor guy is still so shiny and new and hasn't been jaded by the bullshit that is our district. He was very nervous as he spoke to the staff which made me have a bit of sympathy for him. Dude has his work cut out for him but I'll try to give him grace without being too cynical. My main hope is he just leaves me the fuck alone and lets me do my job. I'm old enough to be his mother and I don't need someone telling me what I should be doing. I need to change my attitude, I know but it's hard in a district that keeps disappointing.
We're getting storms today...maybe. The first round will be while I'm at work in the mid-morning. The second round will be after I get home. One weather app has the storms this morning skirting north of us and I'm not sure about he later afternoon ones. Fingers crossed we get lucky. It's only a "slight" risk (2 out of 5) which keeps me hopeful.
Ooh, the house behind us yesterday had a shit ton of cops there. I have no idea what was going on but there were about 4 SUV marked cars and another 4 unmarked. I saw the cops buzzing around the backyard but could see clearly through the trees what they were doing. It's historically a weird house with a lot of strange things going on there. The dude who originally lived there was supposedly a meth maker but who knows. He died a couple years ago and now the house is up for sale by owner. My neighbor who's a firefighter in our township is trying to get the scoop.
Okay I've rambled enough. Happy Wednesday! Later!
