My meeting yesterday (did I mention I had a meeting?) went fine. This was a three-year evaluation meeting for Greg, my behaviorally challenged student. I didn't expect anything major to happen and it didn't. However, when I walked in, I was interested to see that the admin there wasn't the admin in charge of sophomores. I knew he wasn't otherwise occupied because he was covering for me since I didn't have a sub. Regardless, I let it go and think too much about it. Fast forward to post-meeting as I'm getting ready to eat lunch. My admin came up to me and said, "Did you know Greg's parents booted me from having contact with Greg?" I did not know that. I said to him, "Lucky you! I always love it when that happens!" Seriously. I think parents (and you know they're always parents of the pain in the ass kids) believe they're hurting us when they "demand" that certain educators have nothing more to do with their child's discipline (or IEP or what have you). Do they not realize that this is a gift to us? Seriously, it doesn't hurt feelings in fact it's a celebration to me. Anyway, I said, "How do I get them to do the same for me?" Unfortunately, they like me so there you have it.
Jim worked late last night painting his friends house. I wasn't mad about it but I did have to eat alone. It was fine though. Speaking of dinner, I'll be making hibachi chicken and veggies with some yum yum sauce. I won't make it on the Blackstone like I normally would (too cold) but it'll still be delicious.
So annoying!!! Jim's watching Morning Joe and someone on set has an alarm that keeps beeping! It's driving me nuts. How are they allowing that to continue to go off!? TURN THAT SHIT OFF!!!
I've got nothing else to discuss. I'll start reading Harry Potter today. Fingers crossed I have enough time to finish it by the end of the year and have time to watch the movie.
K - I'll close here. Happy Tuesday! Good luck Lisa who's having surgery today! Later!
