From another teacher's blog
Jiminy crickets, this child is annoying.
No. Annoying is not even the word for it. This is going to require more words than just that.
Imagine, if you will, that you are locked in a room with fluorescent lighting, and one of the bulbs keeps blinking. Also in this room, there is a television that plays only static, and the Muzak plays "It's a Small World" on an endless loop. A tiny mosquito keeps biting you, and you have a horrible itch right in between your toes. You hear, but cannot see, another person who keeps sniffling, but never blows his nose. Somebody, somewhere, bounces a ball against the wall and never stops. A child is kicking the back of your chair. Your little brother holds his finger one centimeter from your cheek and chants, "I'm not touching you." A Psych 101 freshman begins to analyze you. A thread hangs from your sleeve, and when you pull it, it just keeps unraveling and unraveling and unraveling. Water drips on your face, but you can't tell where it's coming from. Somebody has decided to favor you with a re-imagining of Austin Powers, complete with the horrible, horrible British accent. The idiot next to you is chewing his gum with his mouth open. Someone else is rubbing pieces of styrofoam together. Elizabeth Hasselbeck starts to talk to you. You can't stop hearing "My Heart Will Go On" in your head. You're forced to participate in an Old Maid tournament. And then Rob Schneider shows up.
Now, multiply that by 19,348,674,928,686,205,992,475,608,976,509,867,520, and you will have .000000001% of the amount of annoying that this child is.I only have him 45 minutes every other day, but sometimes I wish I would die just so I can get away from him.
He would be useful in torture situations, when our military leaders are trying to extract information from prisoners. One second with him, and they would vomit up everything they know.

I gues my question would be, first off who is writing this post? Vickie or Earl (although it drips of the sarcasim of Earl) and how old is this child and how come you only have them for 45 minutes, you culd look at it this way, at least you only have them for 45 minute and not the whole day.
I was just contemplating yesterday during primary (I teach the 4 yr turning 5yr olds and have only 4 of them)how much I admire you teaching Kindergarten and being able to control as many of them as you do at one time....you truly are my hero, any tips?
oops I missed that this post was from another teachers blog....my bad
