My opinion matters darn it!

I refuse to swear in a blog title.

That being said, I've been having a rough couple of days.

As a loud mouthed, full grown, snarky bitch, I'm used to being heard. Lately, it's as though no one listens to me anymore. This causes me to become cranky, foul and downright pissed off. Between my husband's apparent ear muffling lately and this horrible problem that's been going down, I'm about at my wit's end.

Case in point: My opinion has been asked upon as of late. As in, SPECIFICALLY ASKED WHAT I THINK ABOUT SOMETHING. My responses have been ignored or completely shot down. Even though they make sense. I'm very frustrated and about on the verge of giving up. If I suggest positive change, it just won't work for the mere fact that it requires work to change something that is so completely broken it's not even funny.

I don't like this feeling. I don't like not being heard and being talked down to. I don't like not being able to remove myself completely of this situation. I'm literally trapped with nowhere to go. There is no exit in the near or feasibly distant future.

For reasons that should be quite obvious, if you know what I'm talking about, please don't comment. Feel free to shoot me an email or fb message or something a bit less...public.

Also, school was canceled today. Because of the snow. Effing snow. I LOVE the snow but seeing as the amount is increasing and adding to my level of stress, I'm a bit perturbed at it right now. This makes for 2 of the 4 classes we've had so far. And no school on Tuesday because of an "all college day" whatever the hell that is. At least it's not like public school and we won't have to make the days up at the end of the semester. However, it makes for MTEL prep that much harder. I have to find out if I can take a prep course because I really don't think this math class is going to do it for me. I took the first class so long ago and have already learned everything that we're relearning now. It's ridiculous and a complete waste of money.

Jack is learning so much so fast lately. He can squat (so cute, I will post a photo later), say "kitty" after a few days hiatus from the word, WAVE and ohmigoodness it's so freakin' cute! He's also getting much more skilled at cruising. We definitely think he'll be walking before his first birthday. It's wonderful and so sad at the same time. I want him to advance and develop and all that but I can't help wanting him to stay exactly how he is. All cute and pudgy and sweet.
