My hormones are out to get me. Every month, BAM. Down for the count. At least today it didn't hit me until about 7pm and I'll be able to sleep it off.

Class tonight was actually quite fun (pre-headache) but I'm sure He Who is Chronically Tardy had something to do with my headache. We were in a small group, trying to come up with a strategy to hire a new head teacher as if we were business people on the Board of Governors. Tardy decides we need to discuss the importance of academies and how they can revolutionize the school. Uh yeah, but they don't help us figure out how to hire a new head teacher. After listening to his annoying droning for 10 minutes, I finally HAD ENOUGH and said, "Yanno, this isn't really what we're supposed to be talking about. We have to present our plan in 10 minutes. If you want to completely redesign the school, great. That's not our job though. That's the NEW HEAD TEACHER'S JOB. You know, the one we're supposed to be hypothetically hiring."

Must. choke. back. PBHE-type. rage.

The highlight of the night came later on the train. I was venting about His Royal Tardiness and she said, "Oh yeah, I know him. He's the guy who's taken 4 years to finish his MA." 4 years to finish a one year program.

A day late and a dollar short, indeed.
