As I sit here trying to hold my eyelids open so I can finish making this damn math quiz for my miscreants tomorrow, I can't help but be irritated at my co-worker. The single male....that called in sick today....because he was too tired. Having a bit of trouble adjusting to being back at school.
REALLY?! I love the guy...I do. But, he should know by now not to tell me the truth about being too tired. There is no such thing when you're single and male. I'd love to take a personal day so I could rest. But wait...my kid has eaten up most of my sick days with HER sick days.

That would annoy the crap out of me. I try so hard not to compare to kid-free coworkers but when they complain about being tired because they were out to late the night before at happy hour or some other social function it annoys me.
No, I'd be totally bitter about it too. I'd probably be bitchy to him tomorrow too but that is just me being really bitter. My H pulls this card a lot and I get pissy. He'll mention how tired he is to do anything and I'll be like "Right, because you were totally up with C from 1am to 4am last night 8-D 8-D 8-D "
I'm sure DH will pull the tired card today since he got up with A at 2.....um, you already sleep an hour later than me PLUS it's not like I'm sleeping when I can hear her screaming in the night
Having trouble adjusting to being back at school?!!! That excuse would have made me roll my eyes at a fellow student when I was IN high school. As an adult I'd be soured from the friendship. He needs to grow up.
