I love this rain!
That being said; I hate my car. I swear I was gonna die on
the way in. I ended up taking surface streets much of the way for fear that my
car was going to hydroplane right off the freeway. I am hoping it is less
slippery on the way home, but I have a feeling I will be continuing to only
drive maybe 40 mph.
As if the fear of careening off the road wasn’t bad enough,
I find myself with the most epic cramps known to (wo)man. I am sure my body
decided that if I got to have 6 weeks between my cycle this time, it said I was
going to get cramps for one and a half periods. Sigh. I feel horrid. I will
need to dig out some Tylenol in a bit.
On a positive note, Trusty took the day off. This is good
because I was pretty sure I was going to need to take a bat to his head. His
stupidity is leaking out in epic proportions these days and it’s one thing to
slip around on a rain soaked freeway, but to slip in his idiocy is not
tolerable.
I am distracted this morning as well since I made the mistake
of starting a new book last night. I had downloaded an e-book from the library
and realized I only had another 5 days with the copy. It is Armada by Ernest
Cline, the same dude who wrote Ready Player One which was tremendous. This one
has started strong, chock full of 80’s nostalgia and video game references that
make one yearn for a simpler time. Sadly it isn’t like I can sneak in much
reading with it being on my iPad. Sure, no one comes to my little corner of the
office, but I don’t need to take any silly chances what with my desperate need
for transportation not bucking to kill me.
I am sporting my AYSO Board shirt this morning. It’s AYSO’s
birthday which means big things on social media happening with the hashtag of
WearYourAYSO. It is a testament to my loyalty to AYSO that I wear this shirt.
It isn’t comfortable and it has sleeves. However, I decided this was more
official than the t-shirt emblazoned with our region of the year logo. I will
most likely wear this or said t-shirt to practice simply because I am a good
representative. I am hoping to take some pics of the kids out there in uniform
as well.
Homework day one was not bad at all! Both had small amounts
and finished with little to no supervision. I know that every homework day has
reading to do, but for the most part I don’t enforce it. I figure on Mondays,
what with there being no soccer, it is more than possible for them to do the
amount needed. I set the timer and had them pick a book and they sat down and
read. Dax chose book two of the Captain Awesome series, which caused him to
laugh hardily many times. Bobby chose Little House in the Big Woods. So far he
is enjoying it, so I am anxious for him to continue and that he chooses to read
the sequel as well.
Is it bad that I am sitting here, considering ways to place
my iPad in front of me to allow me to read while looking like I am working?
Apparently Miss Arevelo, Bobby’s teacher, doesn’t want
things in the kids’ desks or even on them. It means Bobby has to lug all the
supplies she wanted him to have around with him in his backpack. Such a pain in
the ass. I am sure there is some kind of reasoning, but it doesn’t make me
happy either way.
I suppose I should try to find something to do lest the day
go by even slower.
