Today,  some kid in my awful sixth period class said to me:

“Can you believe it Ms. Uberfrau?  you have four more years of this.  FOUR more years.”    I laughed and told him that I didn’t know what he was talking about-and that really, when it came down to it-I have at least 25 more years of it.    Then suddenly, I felt depressed.

Yesterday was my worst day of the year.  I ended the day alone in my room in tears-because that’s just how much it sucked.  For the most part, I really love my job-and then there are those other times, like yesterday, when you really can’t even imagine how much it sucks.   And i am too exhausted to even try to explain it.
