Me and My Big Fat Mouth

Me and my big fat mouth.

I just had to go and blog about how many days I would be missing. Then the week from hell arrives.

Monday brings a hellacious storm. School canceled.

Tuesday brings supposed jury duty. But the stipulation is one must call after FIVE the day before the scheduled jury duty to see if you need to show up or if there has been a settlement (never mind you already have to take time off for it by then). Well, I call the number and the lady on the message informs me that the trial has been postponed to Wednesday due to the weather. Wonderful. It is now 5:30 and I already have a sub coming in on Tuesday and now I need one for Wednesday as well.

Wednesday. Gone for jury duty.

Thursday. I plan to actually work this day.

Friday. Gone for RTi training. Plus, Kenzie has her second round of immunization shots.

But the most aggravating thing is that our school email system blows. At least trying to access it from home blows. I spent, and I’m not kidding here, an hour trying to email a colleague my sub notes and lesson plans so he can give them to his wife, who is subbing for me. But it takes forever to load. Then when I get everything attached and typed it, the damn thing refuses to send.

Then I have to open my fat mouth about how wonderful technology is. And I can’t send an email with attachments when I need to.
