Hey, baby...what's your sign?

I think the issue with the teacher was a big part of their decision. The slurs my mother used to refer to the woman made clear what her problem with her was. Other than the weird talking to we got, all I remember about the woman is how grumpy she was & she always looked like she found us all annoying as hell. lol There are plenty of bad apples working in the school system. One my brother's first grade teacher used to lock him in a storage room when she took the other kids to recess. He managed to escape one day, because the teacher in the room on the other side that shared the storage left her door unlocked. He ran all the way across town to get home, and of course he was freaking out. He hadn't told my mother it was happening because he was scared; she also had a habit of screaming at him a lot. The crazy thing though, is the administration did absolutely nothing about it but move him to a different class. smh It pretty much ruined school for him though. I imagine it was quite a culture shock down south, especially if there's not much to get into. I used to enjoy visiting cousins that lived out in the sticks when there were things we could get into. Running around in the woods, climbing trees, exploring old abandoned buildings, skinny dipping in a pond we found out there, etc. But other places have absolutely NOTHING to do, and most small town libraries suck. I feel your pain though, the boredom you suffered was what I usually dealt with year round. Even if you didn't go far, those few miles definitely make a difference. Yeah, there were some things I wanted to be making some progress on, but I've been too busy doing nothing so far. lol

 

Yeah, mine too. lol

 

SInce one of my genres is fantasy, I'll just use magic to get you out.

 

LOL! Yeah, those and I could also do comedy and drama. DEVIL WOMAN, The Series has a nice ring to it.

 

Wrong kind of fantasy.

 

Good job with the self-control.

 

Good luck with that.
