Tuesday Tantrum

I'm in a pretty goofy mood today so it's hard to find something to throw a tantrum about. HOWEVER, mornings always rank top on the list! Getting up at 5:15 so that I can get myself ready, in order to get the kids up at 6:15 and get them dressed and hair done so that they can be eating breakfast when I have to race out the door at 6:30 to get to class by 7, is making me C~R~A~Z~Y! I hear so many students complain about their 7am classes, then hear that they got up at 6;45 and raced to class. No getting up at the butt crack of dawn, with only 3-4 hours of sleep because they were up all night studying for the exams they have later in the day. They just get themselves up and race to school. I need a coffee, but that would entail leaving 10 minutes earlier than I already do so that I can swing by Caribou on the way in. No breakfast or coffee until I've already been in class for 2 hours. Today, no lunch until almost 3:00 because I go to class from 7-9, 9-11 and 11-1 in class than have a patient to see from 1-3. Yes, I'm complaining. That's what Tuesdays are for!

And the weather! UGH! It has been so cold here in Georgia this year. We had the snow and ice in January that kept us out of school for an entire week because it never got about freezing and the ice couldn't melt. We expected, and embrassed, this weather in Michigan, but this is the south! It's not "supposed" to do this here! I'm so ready for some 55 & 60 degree days!

And stupid people! I have to say that stupid people who continue to make stupid decisions over and over and over irritate me. But stupid people who make the SAME stupid decisions over and over and over make me freaking want to hit something! I hate watching people make the same mistakes, being hurt by the same people and then opening themselves back up to those same people time and time again and then say "Things have changed" or "I've grown since then. It won't happen again"....only to sit and watch it happen again! When will these stupid people ever learn????
