"make one shaped like a fish!!"

so today i laughed so hard i couldn't believe that it was only tuesday, which is a good thing since this weekend is going to be my busiest yet, even though it is going to be a blast!

so far this year for 6th hour soc. we have had mrs nemi a few times already, which really makes me feel bad for amanda and luke who have her two hours in a row! ouch! even if she hasn't subbed (i don't know if that's a word?) for us she had us in her classroom/her class in ours. today during 5th hour lang (for manda) carlson comes in and tells nemi that she had a fish bone stuck in her throat and it doesn't seem to be coming loose.!?! so nemi subs again for her 6th hour. she arrives just as the bell rings (it's a long walk) and announces to our "mainstream" class that "mrs carlson had to go to the emergency room." well understandably we asked no questions and remained very calm. jk she goes on to tell everyone about the fish bone, and then relates it to the story of the time her daughter (who is having a baby this week! cant forget!) got a piece steak lodged in her throat and she went to the emergency room and they hooked it right out of her (this one came with a visual gesture).

a little later this girl comes in (obviously looking for carlson) and nemi tells her that she is in the emergency room with a fish bone in her throat. not that she needed to know...?

at the end of the hour we had some extra time so manda and i were using our imaginations to exaggerate mrs nemi's treatment of the situation. we talked about how when the girl came in nemi would tell her to make get better cards, and then one for her that che can give to the grandbaby, but not blue or pink, (cause she doesn't know) maybe some yellow or green so it's gender neutral. we went on in the back of the room impersonating what she would say, as she was sitting up front. we exaggerated her yelling at the student making the card cause she couldn't spell corroborate or some other big word, and to sign her name. then manda had the idea of the get well card we were dreaming of making that nemi would demand it in the shape of a fish, since it was a fish bone that she choked on!

other funny moments included when she thought she heard the guys say a "dirty word' even though they were reading the geography poster and the word beach was heard as something else. then she was asking amy about her mom knowing wether she had twins, how she knew, ect. seemingly fishing for the idea of having twin grandbabies. she is so obsessed.
i laughed and then i cried. love it. megan
