...I am so tired. Like, you would not believe how truly tired I am right now.

We have four sections of elementary school a day. The first graders made valentines with big cut-out hearts and music symbols for the faces--some of them were REALLY cute! And then we had fourth grade, third grade, and fourth grade...all of whom were learning choreography for their program (don't know if I mentioned it, but they're working on a program of fifties and sixties music for the fourth and third graders, respectively).

So...yeah. The third graders now know "Yellow Submarine," and all three fourth grade classes know "At the Hop." And I was ready to drop x_x Seriously, for some reason I had a couple of major coughing fits during the course of the afternoon, and my throat was really burning. And all I could think was I HAD BETTER NOT BE GETTING BRONCHITIS AGAIN, OR SO HELP ME CLAUDE I WILL STAB SOMETHING!!!

Oh, and let me tell you the definition of terror: you are driving along, nearing the end of an hour-long commute (that you drive back and forth each day for a total of two hours on the road), and you are pondering as to whether or not you should stop at the bank on your way home because it is starting to snow...and suddenly you glance in your rearview mirror and see sirens about two hundred feet back. And then you look down at your speedometer and realize that in the midst of your ponderings about the possibility of a bank stop, your speed has increased from sixty-five (the speed limit) to seventy. And you have no idea if the cop is after you or not.

So I slowed down and turned my head to watch...as he zipped right by me, sirens a-screaming. And so I made it home safe and un-ticketed.

Also, it's been snowing like mad around here >.> *crosses fingers* Late start...snow day...one of the perks of student teaching: they have a snow day, I get a day off *hope hope hope*

Oh, before I forget--

socchan? Is there gonna be a Lurker Day on March 2nd again? 'Cause, ummm... *fidgets* ...I got a few places I was kinda thinking I would delurk, and I need the motivation of Lurker Day to do it... *makes note to get/beg for a lurker icon*

And finally, someone felt the need to actively remind me that Wednesday is February fourteenth, aka National Make Single People Feel Like Shit Day. For my views on this holiday, I invite you to peruse last year's rant. In the meantime, there will be happy e-cards to a few of you because you are just awesome friends. And because I like to post things on holidays (even holidays that I don't find any pleasure in), hopefully there will be ficcage.

Best part? They're telling all the high schoolers to wear red and pink on Wednesday! I intend to show up in something that is NOT red and/or pink--possibly my dark gray pants and my black button-up shirt. Overall in regards to V-Day, I'm going to re-quote

socchan: there are worse things than having "Miss" before your name on your tombstone.

Wow, this ended up a lot longer than it was supposed to...okay, time for bed x_x BYE!

PS. For those of you who didn't know...ZOMG

jeva_chan IS SOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!!!! :D :D :D
