If you noticed I haven't posted anything in a while, its because I had four blissful, wonderful, fantastic days off work. Four days where I didn't have to talk to anyone under the age of 10.

Yeah I came down from that cloud REAL fast when I went back today.

Every week at work we have themes. We claim they are to motivate the kids, but I personally think the kids don't really give a flying crap. Nonetheless this week is "crazy hair week", so I sported my side ponytail...you know...keeping it real.

Anyway, where I work we finish each class with a goodbye song (I would elaborate, but basically the lyrics make you wish you did not have the ability to hear). Today, one of my kids Nicholas decides to run out of the class before the song because he is too special to sit still for 5 seconds.

As I leave the class I see him crying in the corner. When I ask whats wrong, he looks up with tears in his eyes and yells "YOU SANG THE GOODBYE SONG WITHOOOUUUUTTT MEEEEE". I refrained from shouting "no, you were just too retarded to get it together and sit still", and instead, headed back into the gym to give him a private goodbye song. I was feeling like I did the right thing, until he told me my hair looked "stupid". Being the mature adult that I am, I just said "your face looks stupid".

Needless to say, Nicholas exited the gym just as tearful as he entered, (which is fine because nobody knows I called a 3 year old's face stupid and then felt good about it).

I'm going straight to hell aren't I?

If your going I'm coming with you, unfortunately working with adults I am not allowed to pull the "your face looks stupid", which is really so much kinder than the things I manifest in my head that I just wish I could share with them.
So take solace in the fact that your normal and if your going to hell at least you'll have company.
