OK,OK, I have another.

If you wake up with pain (headache, injury, etc.) take medication before you get to school! Common sense people!

What is this condition you speak of??

I'm pretty sure my expectations are too high sometimes. If only common sense was contagious!

You give your kid a cell phone lady? Too much power. Make your kid go to the office to call you.

C'mon now.

I would be so, so happy if we would take the phones from the kids! I'm not sure who would take it worse though, the kids or the parents.

C'mon now, you know the answer to that!

3rd grader: walks in pinching forearm "My skin hurts when I pinch it and then wiggle it like this" demonstrates

Me: Then don't do that.

3rd grader: I don't understand

Me:C'Mon Now!

Oooh my turn, my turn!

A 4th grader came in with a pass that said "tip of nose itches".

Me: "Oh wow how did you manage to break every bone in your hands?"

Student: "I didn't..."

Me: "Oh good, so you can scratch your own nose. Back to class!"

Ok ok, that dialogue didn't actually happen. But C'MON NOW!

The warm weather continues and the stockings and socks have come off. Blisters blisters everywhere. Band aids for you! Band aids for you! Band aids for everyone! C'MON man!

I travel between buildings. One day, when I got to one of my schools, there was a tub of mucusy (sp?) nasty liquidy stuff sitting in the office. Obviously some kind of body fluid, most likely yak. I contacted the custodian, who was nice enough to swiftly dispose of it before some student got into it or someone bumped into it and spilled it. ( Kids are allowed in and out of the nurse office at that school, whether I'm there or not, and my office is not much bigger than a closet.) At the end of the day, a teacher came to me, demanding to know where her recycling bin was. A student had barfed in it first thing in the morning before I got there, so she decided to put it in my office. I told her a bin full of potentially infectious fluid had been taken by the custodian to dispose of properly, but...C'MON NOW!

Heck, if only common sense were common.

This calls for not only a C'MON NOW, but a swift smack upside the teacher's head. Good grief.
