Is this real life?

Friday, please come back. Friday was possibly the first day of the year that I actually enjoyed teaching. I had a great day. It was raining cats and dogs and I only had 19 nuggets! I got to do so much with them! It was magical. Did I get observed on this whimsical day you ask. No, of course not. 
Monday, please step off. Ugh I had a day full of attitudes and crawlers. Yes, I said crawlers. One of my nuggets decided that the practical thing to do in the middle of my math lesson would be to crawl all over my floor. I ignored this behavior at first, but when he started to crawl under tables and hit other friends' legs I called for reinforcements.
 Even with all they mayham, I would have loved go get an observation. Did I? No! I'm trying to explain this in non-teacher form. Waiting for this observation is like doing something wrong and your mom finding out. You're just waiting for her wrath, you know she knows, you know it's coming so you're walking on eggshells, hoping she forgets. That or like waiting in line at Target: you're anxious, not knowing how long it's gonna take or how much it's gonna cost you! 
 12 more days! Lord Jesus, help me!
