Help!

Help, I need somebody. Help, Not just anybody...


I hope that the title alone is enough to get the Beatles song stuck in your head but just in case it wasn't, I provided the opening lyrics. I'm thinking of making it my theme song. That song has been playing on a continuous loop in my head all day long.


See, this week, is my first week in a new classroom and if that weren't difficult enough, it is state testing week. Just in case you want to know just how horrifying that is, I'm pretty sure that Hell looks an awful lot like a junior high school during standardized testing.


As if the endless hours of complete silence during the actual test weren't bad enough, then teachers have to endure the rest of the day, trying in vain to impart some wisdom on the restless adolescents. Then today there was the two hour faculty meeting after school...


Guess who cracked open a cold one when she got home?


I guess that is how I will survive this madness... I'll just get by with a little help from my friends.


Maybe I just need to go ahead and make the Beatles my life soundtrack...
