"play the video game in your head"

i've been working with the youngest class at school and it's pretty bizarre. i am enjoying it, but it is totally different. language use is different, mainly i have to speak more simply, but as you know, i'm a fancy talker ;) they get distracted realllly easily, i felt bad for a tween there reading to us today bc the kids were rowdy. the most funny to me is when they don't respond to things because they've zoned out to their own world. it was naptime, it was fairly quiet, all of a sudden this boy starts making brrwwwrrwwppp (motorish) and pppwwww, ppppwww, pppwwww (laserish) and i say something to the effect of shhh to which he replies: 'it's a video game! it's a video game!" so trying to focus on the positive behavior desired instead of reprimanding the negative behavior not desired i said: "play the video game in your head" to which the other teacher *cracked up*! good times.

i went to psych. i wasn't a slobbering, crying, depressed mess. i really think it was bc of levothyroxine which haa a side effect of 'changes in menstrual cycle'. what i experienced was extreme anger/depression/muscle pain/body aches = brutal pms. i need to e-mail my doc, i forgot. i also should call the clinic Rx bc i had a refill number and stuff at home, they have gotten all fancy. done. and done. so anyway, psych suggested to take extra balta the 5days before i am due and i am going to try it starting tomorrow bc i am angsty and in pain =/ we shall see what happens.

i e-mailed about the teacher that said they weren't coming back after their vacation bc it really does affect me and possibly others. they called me tonight, but i didn't answer and no message. they know where to find me tomorrow 8-315 ;)

i ordered a new video card and as i type this, the old one is spazzing out. annoying. i got new ink, too and a train ticket to and from WA, YaY! i am gonna watch some of "The Office" which i erroneously got on DVD bc i moved it to the top of that instead of my Instant queue on netflix. the trials and tribulations of life, boy, lemme tell ya something....
