There have been a couple of other incidences here at the Arms. I came home last night to find big no trespassing signs posted all over our apartment building. Not pleasant. These have put me on edge. I don't like it that I have to constantly glance over my shoulder to see if I'm being followed when I walk to the corner store. I don't like wondering if I'm going to open my door to find some gross guy masterbating or fumbling through our washer and dryers trying to find some underwear to fondle. I would like to do laundry without the fear that some perv is going to steal my undies. A not so unpopular occurence here in Japan. Some guy was arrested for stealing over 300 pairs of underwear or something a few years ago. There was a picture of all the underwear spread out across his tatami floor. (Am I remembering this right Kathy?)
I lost my patience with one of my students today. I had visions of marching her out of the classroom by the ear. Knowing I inspired the same behavior in my 5th grade teacher brings me no comfort. I hate trying to discipline a student because a) although they understand you're upset they often have no clue what you're actually trying to communicate and b) it sets a really bad vibe for the rest of the class. I can't continue talking about it because I can feel myself getting agitated.
I've been very frustrated all week for a number of different reasons. My inner-dialogue is becoming so repetitive that if I don't do something to break it I'm going to have an Incredible Hulk moment. Ask my sisters, it's something you wouldn't want to witness.

As someone who's been on the receiving end of one her Hulk moments, it's pretty scary yet awesome all the same time. Oh and never ever try to laugh it off...ahem...it makes her angrier ;)
Jo, remember to stay positive. We all love you and miss you.

Would it be ok if a good looking guy was going through the dryer looking for undies? Your comments seem to indicate that only disgusting pervs are unwanted...haha
not at all mr. cute corner -
if there was a good looking guy looking through my stuff then he'd be just as disgusting a perv as the next
wasn't ted bundy a good looking guy?
not really a good comparison b/c he's a serial killer and i really think that this particular perv we're dealing with is probably not there to cause me bodily harm but...
still makes me edgy.
what an image I have in my head...you turning green and all that stuff....but I have seen your temper before and yup not so pretty...lol
Don't you think if there were a good looking guy Joanne he would be in your panties not trying to steel them? Just use your Hulk abilities on perv and maybe you won't kill any of your kids.....
yes, my dear lisa,
in the years that we've known each you have had the opportunity to witness me at my best and at my worst.
i'm not sure who's temper is worst though, mine or yours?
