I failed. And I failed miserably.
My attempt to not be so feisty has been hard...and it finally came to an end.
Today.
I was stopped at a red light when I saw a kid throw paper after paper out his window and onto the street (I think they were receipts).
My feisty big black-woman like attitude burst out of my little body and I'm sure the words in my head went something like, "Oh HEEEEEE** NO".
I LAID my hand on my horn for a good couple of seconds just before rolling down my window and yelling, "Hey!!!!!!!!! It's called
a TRASHCAN you MORON!" and I laid on my horn yet again.
The sassy little 10th ish grader rolled up his window and his friend waved at me through the sunroof.
This is when I flipped them off.
Then turned into the church parking lot for Activity Days.
Oops.
Bah aha ha hahahaha ha ahaha. Oh my. That made me laugh.

ReplyDeleteLauren!!! It's Natalie! This is the best blog post ever. I love that you flipped them off before teaching achievement days, because that shows that you are human.
