Me: I’m too tired to teach tomorrow, I think I’ll just show them a movie.
Ryan: How about Frozen?
Me: How about Mommy Dearest?
Ryan: Good call, it would make all the parents look good.
Me: Today’s lesson: Perspective.
Ryan: They’ll also learn important life lessons like “Clean your plate.”
Me: And, “No, you DON’T need all those birthday presents.”
Ryan: And, “You can’t beat Mommy at swimming, but she can beat you…with everything in the house.”
Me: So much better than Disney.
Two words: wire hangers. LOL
“I buy you THREE HUNDRED DOLLAR DRESSES!”
(I love that movie.)
Brooke beat me by a whole day. With a wire coat hanger!
Better to be beaten by a day than by the wire hangar. 🙂
They will either truly appreciate the parents they have, or be permanently scarred for life!! It is the one role Faye Dunaway says she regrets!
Rumor has it she wasn’t THAT much nicer. lol
And with all this speechlessness… Time for a musical break…
I can’t pull it up! DAMN IT!
Look up Joan Crawford Mega Mix Mashup on YouTube. Enjoy.
I’m already in love and I haven’t even seen it, yet.
I could have used a few teachers like you. 🙂 –Curt
You’d still be in therapy. 🙂
It might be worth it… (grin)
Just don’t bill me.
Vice-versa:)
I’ve never seen Mommy Dearest, but I have seen the clips from it included in Blue Oyster Cult’s video for “Joan Crawford Has Risen From the Grave”…
Oh, you have to watch it…with wine.
I think you might be the greatest teacher who ever lived, Meggy.
That worries me for the rest of my profession. lol
Yeah really… nah you bring the fun, something sorely needed.
I’m referencing this during my next eval. 🙂
