Code red...

Today we had a code red... And the principal announced it wasn't a drill. So for 20ish minutes today I had to wrestle with the idea that that could have potentially been it. Thankfully it was some student bringing an Airsoft Gun to school.  The fact that for those minutes, I thought to myself how am I going to survive....What can I hit a potential shooter with... Would my student be safe... Was I willing to die for these kids... I didn't want to die today. These aren't normal thoughts to have to process during a day at school. 

Life is short, and we aren't promised anything. Live in, don't squander it.

that's what I'm talking about...

I get that I'm a fundamental kind of person. I ask the usual question when you get home. How was your day? What did you get for lunch?  Anything new?  ...and of course, you give me your run-of-the-mill answers.  Fine, blah blah blah... But then a day later you send me a picture of something that you bought while you were at a store and expect me not to start "narrating possible situations" because you don't write anything with that picture.  I'm just supposed to know.   This is why I feel confused and left out of your world.  Because you don't share those little details that I would love to get.  I know....basic girl crap....you know what?  It's basic because that is how it should be ...basic information sharing.

Some days I think I'd be happier being single because I wouldn't have any expectations of people...  Feeling meh...lonely... dismissed...
