Mean girls

Today was one of the happiest days I've had in a long time. This is due to a couple of things. First of all my favorite song came on the radio while driving to work this morning (aka "Return to Innocence"). Next, the terrarium I had to make with my students last week is actually doing what it's supposed to be doing...growing! There are cute little basil and thyme sprouts shooting out of that soda liter, yesss! Today was also the day that I bought all my kids Valentines and spent more than an hour choosing which design would go to which student (kind of pathetic but I really enjoyed it). It was also Jumprope for Heart Day which meant that I got to hang out in the "Heart Lab" and show kids a real heart and let them touch it. It was pretty cool. Last of all, and best of all, I discovered something truly wonderful. The boy that I've been casually seeing for the past 10 monthes (who will now be referred to as Boy) told me yesterday that he just wants to be friends, blah blah blah, and that he's still not over his girlfriend of 4 years. He thinks that she's perfect...funny, outgoing, amazingly beautiful, etc. For the first time, he told me what her name was. Well as I'm sure you can guess, the first thing I did was get on facebook and start to stalk, completely unashamed of how creepy I was being. I found her....and she's not pretty!!! She's got really small, beady brown eyes and is covered in freckles. When I saw her pictures I instantly felt better about myself. I am definatley better looking than her! This just made my day...I know that this really just proves what a horribly mean person I am, but it still feels good! I also got to thinking about how this is probably exactly the reason why I don't have a man in my life. God is looking down at me and shaking his head, thinking about what a mean girl I am. So even though I feel triumphant right now, I know that I have a lot of character building that I need to be doing. Maybe instead of spending so much time stalking and harshly judging every girl Boy talks to, I could read the Bible...
