Life in Middle School is very interesting. I learn new things all the time. Not just social, or about myself, I learn new academic things, or am reminded of old information that I forgot. I had a very interesting situation come up this week. I was sitting in front of the 8th grade on a stool, in front of a podium stand. I went to get down and I had to lean forward since my feet don't reach the floor--I am too short. Well, I leaned forward and my boob got caught on the corner of the podium stand, and it was now poking me. I tried to move, but two legs of the stool came off the floor. I felt alarmed and looked alarmed I am sure.
There was a boy sitting right in front of me who saw this and he looked alarmed too. I very gently put my weight back to get the stool down and my boob off the corner. The boy said: "Mrs. T. from now on you should only sit in that chair" (He pointed to a folding chair that someone just vacated). It could've been a disaster! I could have given myself an unintended mastectomy, I would've made a scene! I'm so glad I didn't fall. Just a note: I am not married. Despite telling the kids that I am a "Miss" they call me Mrs., even some staff call me Mrs. People just assume that all adults are married. In a way I don't mind: let them think someone loves me enough to marry me.
