Actually I'm a fan of Wednesdays, or as I like to call them "Hump Day". When I return from lunch on Hump Day my work week is officially more than half over and I am on the down hill side. Figure I am shiny after that point.
Now of course making it to that point can be a challenge. My new job, overseeing 16 people, is akin to herding retarded kittens, high on cat nip. On a good day. Bad day? Well, that's something altogether different.

Ah, cat herding...
Been there, done that, cleaned the litter box. 
MsA: Johnny's got years to learn the whole "brat" thing. Mine's still pretty good, but we've got some surly teenager creeping in around the edges. Boy gets a little fuzz on his lip and suddenly he thinks he's man enough to sass me. OH No..no no no, we are NOT going there yet. (He's still cute and a sweetie most of the time. We have not outgrown hugs, although they are occasionally at 90-180 degree angles these days.)
That's Pi/2 to Pi radians. See? I learned something this semester!

LOL a little sass I don't mind... it's the screaming obscenities at me at the top of your lungs while attempting to throw desks around my room... or trying to use your lighter to set me on fire while my back is turned... or coming to class high and trying to assault my assistant... or attempting to sexually assault a teacher in the teacher's bathroom... or continuously talking at top volume while I am talking, giving instructions, etc and when corrected telling me to f off then fake punching me in the head repeatedly... or
I could keep going on and on.That's more or less what I mean by bratty behavior.
As you can tell, it's been a lovely week.

It's fuzzy-minded liberal thinking like that that gets you eaten.

You've obviously got a much higher threshold for "bratty" than myself... and a whole lot more patience.

On today's roster..
One kid came late, pitched a tantrum when I wouldn't let him talk over me during instruction then stormed out of class because I wouldn't let him ride his skateboard around the room.
Another kid paid a 3rd kid to leave our closed campus to buy him snacks and both were tardy. (kid with money is dealing on campus and as soon as I find out where his stash is, I'm busting him) To love someone is to see a miracle invisible to others.

skateboarding..'cause you can wicked thrash in a small level room..
As for the stash.. have you checked his band locker?
Seriously, a thought: could he be having someone else hold for him.. maybe intimidating them into it? (Not that I'm implying he's anything less than a perfect angel and a budding entrepreneur, buut...)
Sorry it's a crap day already.
If it makes you feel better we're having house issues seven days before we're supposed to close per the contract. Whee. (We may or may not be looking at starting the process all over again.)
I'm going to start looking at realty websites again just to see if I can intimidate the bad-house-juju-demons into backing down. Prolly not and these things happen for a reason, right?
(edit)
AAAAnnnd now the house isn't happening. One more thing came up and it was a dilly. This isn't going to be fun or pretty, and we're likely to be out about $2K for a repair that needed doing which we were going to reimburse them at closing. (Someone's gonna fight like a mother for that one I'm betting..)
Here's hoping they don't sue us because they couldn't comply with perfectly reasonable demands we made at the outset, and now the house isn't sold.
As a special bonus: none of the houses we were looking at before are still available so it's square one again. Fuck.
And I'm leaving town in two weeks. For over a month. And can't get back to sign paperwork. Which means that Doctroid's going to have to deal with it on his tod if we don't find summat quick.
AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!
Okay, a large virtual beer and I'll be fine.. right? (Hops behind the bar, lies down under the Guinness spigot and turns on the tap whilst gargling "Tiny Bubbles".)

Oh Rosie... that sucks deep and wide. I am so so sorry. There is nothing worse than that. We were there last Nov and it sucks.
I will cross my fingers and everything that you'll find something lovely and wonderful right this minute. I wish I could do more
House hunting/buying/ etc SUCKS!!!!!
And now on to the show... in todays episode my little sexual predator continues his ongoing spew of sexually inappropriate topics ( strangely while hopping up and down in his chair...pretty sure his over tight girl jeans are gonna fall off again....)
My hostile girl is on a roll about oversharing her social life.... 'cause I so wanted to know about how she almost cheated on her boyfriend
Luckily my little banger is quietly working away:) Gotta love gang bangers. Outside of school they are a danger to themselves and others, but here quiet as a lamb and on task:) To love someone is to see a miracle invisible to others.

Honestly, or was that sarcasm?
I can't tell sometimes.
Okay, three houses looked at today. More tomorrow and Friday. Whee.
