a complex man

Today i rode the bus to school as usual. I went early for a study session before my final. ( I got an A on the final. barely) I had a different driver then normal.
This dude was crazy! Every time a woman got on the bus he was very nice and smiled all the normal things a bus driver should be. Every time a man got the bus he either tried to leave them, tell them they didn't have enough money or (my personal favorite)try to run them over. There was a man and his 10 yr old son getting thier bikes off of the front bike rack and he kept reving the engine at them! I was thinking "Dude. What's your damage. They aren't waisting time. Chill out!"
He was so odd.

Sometimes I wonder what leads a person to a job. And what keeps them there. (Kinda like my job right now.)

Anyhow the guy was a freak and I wonder....how many more are there?

Sean Patrick Sparks

Today my kids were out on the playground. As usual. Playing and making up there own fun, when I over heard my little Sean:
My name is Sean Patrick Sparks. Someday. When I'm a man. My name will be Captain. Jack. Sparrow.
Then He tilted one eyebrow at the girl he was talking to as if to say "Ya see I've already got a pirate eye."

could i see that again

okay don't be scared wheen i tell you i have a new hobbie. ive been playing in the bars as of late. doing some people watching and dancing my size 8 bum into a size 6. good times.
last night while shakin it at the big easy a guy was tryng to pick up on my friend lisa.
basicly the pick up line was something like
i saw you and your friend last night. but i wasnt sure it was you until your friend [me] turned round and i recognized her....pa dunk a dunk.

that's right people my toosh can be pulled from a line up.
there were a lot of bums in that place last night. and mine stood out above the crowd.
way to go. i wonder what am i going to do with all that junk up in my trunk.

somebody call 911

Last Saturday i was awakened by the sound of my cell phone ringing at 7 in the morning. it was a 911 operator.
O:Are you okay ma'am?
Me: huh?
O: This is 911. we got a call from this number. are you okay?
...long story short i some how rolled over my phone while slepping an dialed 911 and left them with an open line for about 12 minutes.
My bad 911. My Bad.

it's a bird! it's a plane...

the other day while on the playground with my little pre schoolers, we were attacked by the mother of all things that fly. "attackd" in the sence that this large circling creature swooped and dove numerous times. Trying its best to intimidate we two legged beings below. i don't know what her intensions were. She was carring something, probably left overs from one of her previous attacks. this gi-huge-ic monster continued her efforts for a few minutes. I got a good look at her....this was no bird. nor was she a plane. it was a mutant of a queen bee. Her size and wing span impressive. i most certaiinly wanted no contact with her and i was greaful when she finally flew away. goodness knows i didn't want to look like a giant pansey. i most definattely did not welcome the opportunity to fight this worthy apponate. mostly cause i would have lost....she was bigger then me.

Point Clearly Taken.

Gotiit!

Here let me get that for you

Today I was run over by a woman pushing a shopping cart in Wal mart. Nothing as tramatic as Em's broken leg story. But I tell you what, that is going to be one big ol' bruise on my hip. Then as if that were not enough I cut my hand on a shelf while trying to get to some soup. Oy the things I go through for that preschool.

I love that you get me

I fall down.
A Lot.
I fall down, I get hurt, it usually ends in tears.
I'm clumsey.
I try to stay up. Balanced. Normal.
I fall down harder.
It's not good.

I am however a little proud of it. Only in the fact that I haven't died yet. No Major injuries needing surgery or large scale correctoins. Stuff like that.

And now I have a comrad. A fellow accident prone pal that is not ashamed of her falling...ness.

Bless you my friend. Bless you.

Ais (ace)

A couple days ago Ais (that's what I call her) was playing on the playground. She and another girl were yelling at a bird.
"Come on Bird. Come on Bird. What you got. Come on Bird."
Really yelling at this Bird to
"Bring it. Bird."

just then the bird swooped down past them and they screamed and ducked and

did it over and over and over. they AND the bird.
I was thoroghly amused.

Jordin my tiger

today i was playing with one of my tiger boys. we were havng a tickle war. it was all kinds of fun. he was wiinning.....I was winning......then he was winning.
I was winning...then my little guy says "Teacher Lisa stop. I'm gunna tell your husband."
so I said "when you find him tell him to call me."

not really. Just like Angelica...I had no response to that.

J.O.

Today I saw JO. He's 8. He was walking down the street. By himself. alone. eight.
NOT GOOD.
I was driving the big A.T. van. I dropped off the kids and my partner teacher at A.T.
Then I ran down the street to meet up with little JO.
The Gist of it:
Me: Hey Little JO. What are you doing? Where are you going? Where are your Four older syblings or mom or grandma or whoever was supposed to pick you up?
JO: Well I can't find them so I'm walking home.
Me: Where do you live?
JO: BFE that way.
Me: well how about we go to A.T. and call grandma to come get you?
JO: okay
15 min later
Angery man who was supposed to be picking up the boy arrives at AT dirty looks at boy and ready to do some hollerin'
grandma arrives 26 sec. after angery man.
then they all go out the door
grandma: Thank you Lisa
Me: No problem G'ma just glad he's safe.
Grandma: me too.
Angery man: (scowle)

I don't have point or a moral but wow what a day huh?

Eat the burned Part...

...it's good for your teeth.

that is what my ma used to say to me when I was young.

I grew up. I stopped eating the burned part.

I went to the dentist yesterday.

Mom was right. DONT ask me how. but I need 4 fillings a root canal and an entire tooth REMOVED. And then some odds and ends.



I'm.....................gunna go burn a pizza.

Pressure Much...?

I was involvd in an accident today. some lady hit my bumper as i was driving the big Advnture Time van. it was all fast. no one was hurt, but dude ya wanna talk pressure. Drive a van with 10 kids that belong to 10 different sets of parents. Parents who might well be very angery with you if you were to say.....get into an accident with their child in your ride. And then you will understand PRESSURE.

dirty ball

I was playing basketball with my boys at outside time. they like to play "dirty ball" that means they get to use their ball to knock your ball off the court so you have to chase your ball down while they shoot. its very.....fun?
so my good little buddy hit my ball out four times. so it was time to turn the table. i grabbed my ball and bounced his ball high.

then KARMA

I hit his ball, it hit the rim of the hoop and bounced back and hit me in the face.
can you say fat lip. bloody nose and teary eyes.

karma.
