Latest last-minute call from a student or parent regarding the project that my middle school students had due today:
12:10 a.m. the night before. Or rather, the morning of.
...That was, until the parent who called me at 6:57 this morning. SHE now holds the record for the most last-minute phone call.
Best conversation that I had with a student today:
STUDENT: Hey, Ms. K, I have my thing for the project!
ME: Okay, where is it?
STUDENT: What, you want it now?
ME: You were supposed to have turned it in to me three hours ago!
STUDENT: You mean I'm supposed to turn it in?
Worst news that I received today:
Due to a spectacular fuckup in our school's Infinite Campus setup, all final grades at the middle school where I work will have to be calculated and entered by hand.
Worst news that I had to break to someone today:
Look, there are seventy possible points to earn on this final exam. You only needed to earn ten points to keep a passing grade in the class. Just. Ten. Points.
But you only got three. Three points total.
You're lucky that your mom is one of the nicest human beings in the planet and that she convinced me to hold off on submitting my final grades for one more day, just so that you can try again tomorrow.

So, um, I had a talk on the phone with my mom yesterday. For almost two hours. It was one of those calls. /o\
On the positive side, I think that she's finally starting to accept the fact that I'm not straight. She's not happy about it, but she at least isn't quoting Bible verses at me anymore. Admittedly, she's now convinced that I'm a lesbian rather than bisexual (and "biromantic asexual" goes completely over her head, which is pretty fucking hilarious considering she's point blank told me in the past that she's a heteroromantic asexual), but hey. It's a step in the right direction, at least? And she at least agrees with me that, while her side of the family wouldn't exactly approve, I probably wouldn't be disowned if I were to come out of the closet.
Of course, she also agrees that dad's side of the family is a completely different story. Or, at least, my dad and my Aunt M. (And, you know, my grandmother, but I have no plans on coming out while she's still alive, because her completely freaking out is not something I will ever be up to dealing with.) :-/
But, hey, apparently my dad is at least starting to get a clue. Or, at least, enough of one that he's now officially in the complete denial stage that my mom's just starting to move out of after, you know, five or six years. *headdesk* Though, seriously, if you're cleaning out your daughter's old bedroom so that you can turn it into a room for your son? And you come across an old diary from at least a decade ago, from when she was 15 or so, that she obviously has completely forgotten about? And you read it? It's your own damn fault if you find out things about said daughter that you would rather not know about. You know, like the fact that she likes women just as much as men.
I'm starting to get the impression that when I go back to Tennessee for the holidays this year? It's, uh, going to be an interested visit, considering I'm officially (or, at least, almost officially in some cases) out of the closet to about half the family and very much still in the closet to the other half of the family.

For a little bit of background, my friend (who I will call Alpha) and I help run a very small RP site. One member (who I will call Member) is a real life friend of hers who can be a little . . . ah, annoying. But honestly, I don't mind her most of the time. She's not exactly on the same level in terms of RPing as our other members, so my friend and I alternate between having little training 'threads' with her every once in a while and offering her pointers. She works hard on improving for a bit, and then just . . . stops.
