Sorry you feel like you regret sharing. If it helps, my best “back-to-school” story involves, four days before my student-teaching placement started, finding out that a student in one class was actually awaiting trial for murder.

I had this happen when I volunteered at my daughter’s school for picture day. I was no-makeup, hair in a bun, baggy sweatshirt, and 33 goddamn years old. A teacher came up to me and said “Whose class are you in, sweetie?”
I have always had a baby face. At 27, I look like I’m a teenager, and I’m pretty sure I’ll be carded well into my thirties.
Not sure if this ever happened on a first day of school, but I would frequently miss my school bus because I was walking too slowly up the street, stopping to remove drowny worms from puddles along the way. I still do this and not long ago missed a city bus for the same reason. Poor little waterlogged worms.
Not a triumph, and I’m not sure that “humiliation” is the right word. But. My first day of teaching as a student teacher, a student died. Not one of mine, but I mean half the school knew her. Two of my students laughed when the student collapsed because they thought it was some sort of prank, and I just did NOT know…

They have a ton of reality TV shows.
No. This is not the face of a man who reciprocates.
Don't worry Matthew, Jenny McCarthy is coming to save you.
white on white...brilliant!
this is the equivalent of the “you can see these numbers from space” phone we got my grandma.
*Police cruiser not to scale.
But there’s a war on Christmas every year because capitalism and not keeping Christ in Christmas.
JESUS CHRIST ON A FUCKING CRACKER this is the best .gif of my life.
A nation where Christmas decorations start appearing in stores before Labor Day can not possibly be a nation where Christians are oppressed for their faith.
By having severe seasonal allergies, that’s how. I love summer, it’s green and warm but the plants have stopped freaking out and pumping pollen into the air so I can’t breathe!
Yeah the first part of winter is wonderful obvs because new snow and Christmas and I get to take time off work and stay home drinking whiskey and hot chocolate.
