This week is testing in South Carolina. It's Hell for both the kids and the teachers. Truly, until you've proctored one of these suckers for DAYS in a row, you'll never know the joy. (Yes, that's sarcasm. Yes, I'm grumpy. A lot grumpy.)

| *losing. Seriously, do these people never edit themselves? Don't they know they look like dumb asses themselves with these grammar errors? And yes, I'm just one dumb ass away from losing it. |
Currently reading:
DROP DEAD HEALTHY by A.J. Jacobs -- I'm reading this in an effort to inspire my quest for better health (and pound droppage--it's almost bathing suit season, after all!). It's pretty funny and filled with the same confusion I feel when trying to figure out what's healthy and what's not. Seriously, scientists. Could you be any more confusing with your recommendations?
DEADLOCKED by Charlaine Harris -- a good counterbalance to my nonfiction reading. Sookie's up to her eyeballs in trouble, as usual. I missed her snark and really like how this book seems back on track (just in time for the almost-end-of-the-series, huh?).

| While the grammar in this is questionable (seriously, where's the punctuation? *eye roll*), it's still pretty damn funny. |


Our testing isn't for another few weeks - something to look forward to... *sigh*
ReplyDeleteI love that final poster too :)
UGH! ((( Hugs )))) and I am sending anti-dumbass guns your way :)
ReplyDeleteI am almost done with Deadlocked and I highly enjoyed it! :) :)
I did miss the snark and trouble little Ms S seems to get herself into :)
haha, I'm always one dumbass away from losing it. :)
ReplyDeleteWe had our testing 2 weeks ago. I hate it, as do my kids. I totally know what you are going through!
Sending you non-dumbass vibes!
Ha. Oh, Mary, I saw the lolz cat picture, too, and thought it was perfectly fitting for those of us grammar nerds. Why, yes, I am one dumb ass away from losing it, how did you know? ;)
ReplyDeleteBest of luck surviving this week.
When there's no punctuation I have to read things a few times to insert my own. I often lose the whole point then. And spelling, ARG, I know I'm far from perfect and make mistakes but when its something short like the cat picture its just plain stupid.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with testing Mary! I hope it's not driving you too crazy, though judging by these pictures, you at least still have your sense of humor and that's a good thing:) I especially appreciate the Harry Potter-themed bathroom logic. Win.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the tests! I love AJ Jacobs. I've read about 100 pgs of Drop Dead Healthy. You must read Know It All if you haven't yet.
