So, I neglected my blogular duties by not writing part two of my day of sucktitude. Oh well. Sometimes I don't follow through on things. I try not to beat myself up over it, considering as it is human to fail. But, I do feel bad. And now, I just can't muster up the passion to finish my tale of woe...so I'll have to move on to more Christmasy things!
Christmas is four days away, people! Four. Days. Away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel like I'm six years old again. Except that when I was six I didn't have to stress out about what to get people. This year I am epically underprepared. I have a total of maybe four completed gifts for people and another six to eight gifts in various states of incompleteness. I do not have enough time to finish everything, but I've decided to enjoy the holiday season anyway. If people get a half finished scarf, or a single candle, so be it. That's not what Christmas is about, after all. Folks can consider it my heartfelt reminder that joy comes from family, not new i-pods and UGGs. Ok...some amount of joy comes from those things, but that's not the point!
On a side note, I just had to yell at a room full of middle schoolers in the library who were being loud, disruptive, and offensive. All five foot one of me marched right in there and bellowed in my ever-intimidating chipmunk voice, "Ok. All of you, out! Right now. I've had five complaints about you, so I need you to collect your things and get out. Right this instant!" Surprisingly enough, they obeyed. I did hear a few, "Bitch", "That Lady just yelled at a bunch of kids", and "Stupid cunt" expressions muttered under some breaths, but other than that it went pretty smoothly. I'm kind of proud of myself now.
