-I woke up at 7:02 because I had forgotten to set my alarm. This is 1.5 hours after I usually wake up, which needless to say caused chaos in my heart, mind, and soul. Luckily I had showered the night before so all I had to do was the essential morning things (which obviously includes accessorizing...don't think for a second that I meant I didn't do jewelry). The whole healthy breakfast went out the window along with my 1.5 hours of planning time. But every bite of my bagel with cream cheese was DYNAMITE.
-I had planned on observing a teacher who has my "precious pie" student in his class so I could watch how he manages his behavior. By "precious pie" I'm actually totally pretending that he's not a pain in my arse. Yeah that's right. I said arse. Well this pain showed up late, so I thought he was actually absent, which through off my dis-combobulated (how the heck do you spell that word!?) morning even more. So I didn't end up observing him and this was confusing and now I have to set up another observation. Whew. My heart, mind, and soul had some mighty big ups and downs what with all the chaotic nonsense this morning.
-I ate some Landmark-provided avocado. You see, at Landmark, well, it's just that you all want to work there. Because of many reasons but one reason is because breakfast and lunch are provided. I try to stay away from the breakfast because I would eat a bagel and cream cheese every morning if I did, but lunch offers some pretty amazing and healthy foods. The chef who cooks is awesome and he does a really good job. Well you know how it's funny when you say, "you should put that in the suggestion box" when you want to suggest something, and it's funny because there isn't any box? Like let me give you an example....How 'bout you step in a wad of gum and are really annoyed that you have gum on your shoe. You might say, "I should really put something in the suggestion box" Or what if you are about to upload a virus on your computer by accident (oh boy I was so close), you might say "I should really put something in the suggest box". Get it? Well this avocado is not that case because there actually really is one. So bummer. But anyway... I suggested that the chef provide avocado in his already-amazing salad bar. And BAM today was the first day after a long time waiting. And I sat down at the table with teachers and one by one they said, "is that avocado?" and got up to get some. I'm just saying, I am an amazing suggestion-boxist.
-I got out of school at 1:30. Because I had 2 free periods at the end of the day rather than just one. Beautiful.
-Went to the library to get some new (new to me; not new new) Christmas album jams. And gave up after I got tired of turning my head to a 45 degree angle to see the titles of the albums. It just wasn't working for me at this juncture.
-Was doing some lesson planning (to make up for the fact that I left before the school day actually ends...but it still feels nicer because it just does) at Panera when a guy comes up to me (stop it, stop it, he's married dangit) and gives me that look like, I know you. And while this is happening, I kind of recognize him but not really truly. And the whole thing was very awkward but I pretty much told him I didn't know who he was even though I recognized him. He knew I was Jaq and had to tell me he was Matt. Welp he was at the community group I joined as of 1.5 weeks ago. And he was a guy there that I really really liked...in fact we made a pact to both show up at the community group's Christmas party in some awesome but ugly sweaters together. He's from North Carolina, is funny (he came over and saw that I had kids chapter books and colored markers with me and asked me if I was coloring...pitter patter and haha), has an accent, is studying at the seminary. Oh and also he's married to a beautiful beautiful girl. Aren't they all. And after he left I started thinking about the other guy I had a huge crush on, not because of his looks but because of who he was, and then he got married. And then I wondered when I'd actually catch my own. Not to sound like I'm fishing, but am I kind of? Sometimes I get the tackle box out and throw out the line, but sometimes I reel it back in, find some sort of old boot of the other end, and call it a day.
-I thought about Breyer's vanilla ice cream and how I'm going to get some and watch a movie tonight. And do it proudly.
-I got annoyed with high schoolers and then thanked Jesus that I'm no longer in high school but instead have "found who I am" and am happy and yay.
IN conclusion, I lead a normal life. I sleep in because I forget to do those small things at night that can make a huge different in the morning. I have altogether dis-combobulated mornings. I have a hard time spelling words (although I must say I do better in this area than the average joe). I make really good suggestions. I love starting my weekends as early as possible. I don't like having my head in uncomfortable angles. I would really really really like to meet a man (I should put it in the suggestion box). And I feel sorry for myself for not catching certain men. And I relate men to fish. I really like ice cream and get very excited about it. That's actually an understatement. Obviously. I get annoyed.
LOL.

I so hear you on the man thing...please put that in the suggestion box, would you? Avocado is a magic food. I love it. Oh, and i think you nailed dis-combobulated. Nice work.
