She's gone!

And it's hard to believe. I never really realized how hard it would be to say "bye." I think more than anything I'm afraid of the unknown for her, afraid that I can't be there with her! I know she'll tear OSP up and be the greatest cop NOPD has ever seen. I personally can't wait until they start shotgun training and she outdoes everyone :)

Today at work sucks. It's a hard day, all the teachers are back. I am working on overcoming the negativity of last year, but it's a struggle. I get so irritated and today it's rough because I was so irritated to begin with. Channel scrappy doo is what I keep telling myself. Here is one of the little irritations: they passed out really cool polo t-shirts at the orientation meeting today, but a parent came in to enroll a new kids and I was the only one who went out of the meeting to help them. So I missed the part when they passed out the tshirts, and my boss (not mentioning names, but it's the one with the hugely fat belly) got ME a medium and got herself a small. I hate baggy tshirts, I will never wear it. When I finally was done with the parent and went back into the auditorium all the smalls were gone! Said boss then spent 15 minutes trying on the small and the medium to figure out which one she wanted and I could have the one she didn't want. Listen, when she put on the small, it was tight against her belly fat! It made me so mad! I was like, how are you going to give me the medium when I am way smaller than you! Not to mention that I missed the tshirt thing because I was out here actually HELPING A PARENT!!!! Shouldn't I have first pick?????

Ugh. That's what it's like working in the schools. Everyone just takes takes takes. Some days I hate all people.

    Guess what? I also hate too-large t-shirts with a burning passion, and I, my friend, have a sewing machine!! I can take that baggy shirt in and it won't take me more than five minutes! Bring it over. :)

    The only way forward is with an almost over-zealous sense of determination. Tell your boss, "You can move or get run over, but I will make it past you!"
