While normally you at least strive for work-life balance, at this point in the school year, you more or less admit defeat. You’ve got too many school events, too many report cards, and not nearly enough energy to do it all. Here are 10 truths about a teacher’s social life in May:
1. It pretty much doesn’t exist.
Friends. What friends?
2. Like it’s basically microscopic.
Nope, no plans here.
3. Unless you count chaperoning the middle school dance.
Do the Shuffle!
4. In which case my social life is poppin’.
Pass the punch.
5. But mostly, this month, you’ll find me doing this.
Grading. Soooo much grading…
6. Or this.
Netflix and sleep.
7. And definitely not wondering what my friends are doing without me.
Please try not to have too much fun.
8. I mean, I’m sure they’re enjoying the few nice days that we actually have in between the frigid snow and sweltering heat.
Sigh…those elusive days of spring.
9. While I grade 137 essays on The Grapes of Wrath.
That all start with “In my opinion…”
10. But I’m fine. I’m totally fine. I’ll see you guys in July.
