*sigh*

Isn't life strange? (As the Moody Blues were wont to ask.)

Still in school, it's last period, I'm shot. My body has apparently decided that it wants to sleep from about 1 am to about 9 am, which is swell, except that my employment kind of wants me to be here way before 9. So I had a good weekend and now I'm shot. As for pain, I'm noticing that my pain is somewhat better on rainy days. Go figure.

I'm drinking more water than even exists, I'm spending more time in the bathroom than in the library, but my blood pressure is better. I'm seeing the cardiologist this afternoon, and he can sort it all out.

Oy. A very goofy (but sweet) young teacher showed up with his whole class while I was out (in the bathroom, of course) and just took over the library. He said he peeked into the computer lab, but there was already a class there. Yes, there was, because that teacher thought to book it in advance. So now I've got goofy, noisy freshmen all over the place, doing god knows what, because their teacher, sweet as he is, has no classroom management skills. It looks like there are twelve kids using one computer, which seems unlikely, so I'm guessing that some of these kids are not so much working on their biome power points. At the moment, I'm kind of feeling like morphing into Sister Mary Elephant and screaming "SHUT UP!!!!"

Oy. He just found three of them playing games, so that's three kids I just cut off computer privileges from. And now, of course, I need to go to the bathroom again.

I hope my dinner comes out better tonight than the last time I made chicken/hockey pucks in the crock pot. I got everything ready last night and this morning I put in the chicken and dumped everything else over it. At least I won't have much to do when I get home from the cardiologist, except, of course, get to the bathroom.

Ten minutes.

Raining today, so that'll be more flooding in nearby places, although not so much just where I am. The last four days were the most perfect weather days of the year, just like real spring. I don't think we're going back to winter -- not that it might not snow again -- but we are going back to early spring, cold and rainy.

And now the freshmen are escaping the library. Three girls are reciting a cheer as they go. I wonder how many of them will actually be back int heir classroom when the teacher gets there? I can still hear them from down the hall.

Oy.
