I'm not going to try to justify or reason why I haven't blogged in so long. I could list reasons such as: I was on Spring Break and never once got online or that my Internet in my apartment has been off (including cable) since I returned or even that I have had a soccer game every day this week, thus getting me home no earlier than 8:00. But I won't elaborate on those. Instead I'll just trust that I have forgiveness and promise that I will be better starting now.
With all that said, this entry will still be short because I am at school in the midst of 9 week exams and parent meetings all day, every day. However, living on the edge of risk is where I like to be and if typing away at the computer pretending I'm writing an important email or document can grant me some time to write a little entry, then living that lie is what I'm about. Yep. I said it. And I meant it.
Since returning to work, I have been swamped with stuff that I should or should not have completed before Spring Break but hey, I get it done for when it needs to be done. Okay?! Anyways, because of the overwhelming amount of work on top of 9 week exams, let's just say I may not be the most pleasant to students who happen to ask the most RIDICULOUS questions! So, to add to another reason I have been absent here, I give you the case of my 'Just not in a good mood'.
With this as my story I feel certain I will win 'Not Guilty' in the plead of 'Unfaithful to Blogger Relationship':
Yesterday, during the Algebra I test, after I had told these particular boys to be quiet 7 times and eventually told them they were driving me nuts and to shut their mouths or else!, I was asked by the sweet Marquise, "Ms. Peters, why are you PMSing on us?". To that my only response was "I'm not! You guys are just annoying the crap out of me!!"
Yep. I plead not guilty because I had a 10th grade boy ask me in front of other boys why I was PMSing. When I wasn't even. I swear I am not that teacher, I am fun, usually don't care if they talk, and am willing to help any student! But I got asked why I was PMSing on them.
Let's just say my attitude toward Algebra I, my blog and all things taking time away from the things I love is changing immediately!

My Dearest Unfaithful Blogget,
I have missed your faithfulness. Thank you for returning. I am sorry a boy sniffed out your "not so hidden" stress. I think you handled it beautifully because we all know that I would have already beaten them. I wish your whole life job was to blog, because, being unemployed, I find great joy in reading these entries in your voice and pretend you are here...weird.
