She actually asked me that?

Mondays are my half days, I work Sunday night and sleep 2 hours and come in for the lunch rush. I come in to a 2nd grader sitting in my office. I ask her what is wrong and she tells me she hit her buttock on something sharp. Her mom is one that must be called with everything, so I asked the woman I share the office with if mom was called, thankfully she was. In fact, this mom is so over the top that she was coming in. She arrived 5 minutes after I got there, looked at me and asked "did you see it?". Really? I am not looking, I deferred to the Principal and office partner on this one. She took her in the bathroom and all was fine, so home she went.

Another tragedy diverted!! Hoooray!!! :)

maybe mom will lighten up a bit. it's doubtful, but we can dream, right?
