I hate my job

I hate my job so fricking much. I'm a teacher. I love my students. I love teaching. I love my subject matter (reading and english). I love the fact that I get to expose young minds to the literature that helped me get through my troublesome adolescence. What I can't stand is the fact that I work for a woman who has no clue what goes on in my classroom. Who has a problem with my "loudness" and the fact that my students WANT to spend time with me because they feel safer with me than in the cafeteria. A woman who has no clue how to do her own job but has to make herself feel superior to others by being condescending and irrational. Someone who treats others like absolute shit and makes her inferiors feel hopeless and abandoned.

Last year I filed a grievance with my district because we were being undully chastized for the actions of our superiors. Now I'll be filing a grievance with my district because I'm not being supported by my superiors. What does that say about her? I hope to hell they investigate and fire her ass!!!

Life

Last night was so much fun! I decided that I didn't want to stay home by myself so I called my oldest daughter to see if she wanted to hang out with her old mom. We ended up having dinner at an awesome italian restaurant then going out for drinks at Freebirds Brewing Company. We had such a great time talking and laughing about all manner of things. She ended up spending the night with me because I didn't want to take her home. We had fun watching the dog and one of the cats play and rough house with each other. Our little Mia (the cat who is barely four pounds) and my huge black lab were chasing each other and Mia was batting at Lacy's nose. They were hilarious (and I'm sure that it was made even more so because we were a little tipsy!) I am so glad that I have such an awesome daughter who wants to hang out with her mother and spend time doing silly things. I'm a very lucky mom!!
