Who said that?

So I'm sitting here at work, miserable!!  I'm tired of repeating the same things over and over to my students; who seem to get progressively more brain dead as we head to the end of the school year.  And, of course, we are also headed towards state exams, which is when their brains should be even more active.  And, I swear I am going to learn how to say "shut up" in at least 5 more languages to see if I can get this point across! I can't wait to get out of here and I'm so desperate to get out of here that I'm actually contemplating if I can make up a relative and then kill them off just so I can leave early.  Suddenly, and seemingly out of nowhere, as I begin to picture what I would do if I could get out of this place I actually saw myself first stopping at the gym and then driving off into the sunset.  Did you get that...Stopping. At. The. Gym....I actually shocked myself with that thought! That thought could not have come from me.  I do not "like" the gym so why would I want to stop there?  Well it seems it's where I want to be and who am I to deny myself anything (other than Coca Cola, or as I have come to think of it in my deprived mind "Ambrosia of the Gods")  Now to turn this into motivating momentum for later on when I will actually be able to go to the gym! Here's to hoping for a day which goes by quickly, my suppression of the instinct to choke one of these damn students, and actually making it to the gym!
