I’m Pissed today because everybody in town is going away for the Spring Break next week…
April 16, 2008and I’m stuck at home hoping to go on a few day trips. It’s kind of my fault.(1).No early planning (some women I know have been planning this trip since the GIANTS won the Super Bowl) (2) Don’t want to spend the cash( In my defense it’s hard spending $4500 (prob low) when it’s 67 degrees outside and the only benefit is drinking (I can do that here( and laying in broiling sun ( I’m Irish/Italian so my Irish half (face and arms and legs) burn to a crisp…I can do that here on a lacrosse field just as easy. But here’s the thing that really pisses me off. Why is there a Spring Break for teachers ? Were the months of February ( wait they had a break in Feb)..Ok March ( You had Saint Patricks Day) that brutal that they needed a break ? So because they were so stressed from March 1st to April 15th ( BTW you had the NCAA Tourney in there to bide your time ) that they needed another break before slaving for another month before they have off 3 months for the Summer , that I need to now take my 5 kids (2 in college that’s really inexpensive) and spend 4500 to take them somewhere and drink overpriced Tequila Sunrises and pay SICK cash to watch some cheap version of a porpoise(dolphin..who cares about the difference) named Quipper( Snap) swim around a small tank in Quipper World ? Thanks Mrs McGillicudy and your strong Union !
