Oh Lord

Last week my principal had a staff meeting about the swine flu issue. She said that we (the school community) are all safe from the swine flu because she prayed for all of us that morning. Oh lucky me. Then she went on the say, "I believe I am susceptible to the swine flu, but I will not get it. I am protected because I am covered in Jesus' blood!." Amen sister!

Jessica's birthday was on Friday. Her mom wanted to bring pizza in to celebrate. She said to me, "I'll bring the napkins, can you bring the plates and cups?" What!? After everything you put me through lady, you're going to ask me to buy something for your kid's birthday celebration?
I told her twice that she could bring in pizza at 1:50 p.m. She confirmed it Friday morning. Then she shows up at 1:25 with cupcakes and acts all put off that the student's aren't ready for the big birthday blowout.
Another classic about Jessica's mom - Our school started a new free breakfast program where the kids pick a hot or cold breakfast when they walk in the door and eat it for the first 15 minutes of class. My teaching aide saw Jessica's mom walking out of the school the other morning with two of the bags under her arm. Moocher.
