yes i know i haven't blogged for a while, but i've been at the S's for the past three or four days having nightmares.

seriously, i had nightmares the past two nights! it must be that buzz in the guest room that the vent makes when the heat is on. or they have a ghost.

my tooth hurts like f*ck and i can't find any ibuprofin. i really do not want to resort to v!cod!n because that'll make me groggy.

and i'm tired

and i'm feeling hopeless about my job. but maybe if i do a good job with the rest of the year she will either a) realize her mistake and leave the admistrative scene with her tail between her legs, or b) realize her mistake and recommend me for rehire. but still. i feel that now that the decision is made, she's no longer stopping in my room, no longer "available." it's just all the professional development seems like it's going nowhere. what's the point of my going to "new ELL teacher" meetings if i'm not going to stay with the district?

anyway this is turning into a long list of complaints so i'll stop and look for some painkillers and something to eat. ps. the picture of my miss sixtys illustrates perfectly how i feel... collapsed and exhausted!
