This Is It

It's Monday. Today was the day I "push in" to the classrooms for my students. I go into their classrooms and help the kids while they are working on their assignments. I try to help all the kids in the room somewhat so I'm not singling out the special education students. After that was done I went to get the next batch of kids and was told they were not in school because they had parent conferences. So, instead I tried to work on some paperwork, but wasn't able to get a parent on the phone to give me information I needed. I can't get things done there with all the noise, so I left.

When I left, I decided it would be stupid for me to go home and be in Debra's way while she was cleaning, so I got a wild hair and decided to go to the movie....alone!
Mike doesn't share my love of Michael Jackson, so I knew he would not be upset that I didn't invite him to go with me. I went to a 2:10 pm movie. It was pretty crowded for an afternoon movie. I sat in the back up high. Here is where the complaining comes in. There were 2 ladies behind me to my left and two ladies in front of me. The movie started and I was so excited! Well, they didn't stop talking throughout the movie. I was really getting upset. Finally after 2/3 of the movie I finally moved. I was wanting to tell them to SHUT UP! and then I was thinking angry thoughts. This movie actually had me in tears at one point. I don't think I have ever cried in a movie before, except for maybe Titanic 12 years ago ???
I was good and didn't get in one of my shouting fights with people when I get pushed too far, but I was praying for patience because I was thinking such not nice thoughts.

Of course once this was all over at about 4:20 pm I had 6 texts, 5 missed calls and 3voicemails. That almost put me over the edge. I should be glad people want to know where I am, but I just wanted 2 HOURS to do what I wanted to do. I can't wait to get the DVD so I can watch it sometime unannoyed by talking people. It was a great movie, by the way. Unbelievable the talent that man had.
