Small acts of kindness
Oct. 27th, 2025 11:29 pmto off set the whole nightmare of work today (It's too late in the day to relive it) I had students be very kind. I visibly had a hypoglycemic attack but I didn't want to run back to my office and while I was debating it, it dropped so much I was shaking and sweating so students ran to the vending machine and got me recesee's cups and wouldn't let me pay them back.
And another student stayed with me and a third student who had fallen on the steps because they didn't want to go to urgent care and could I examine their sprained ankle (I kept the other student as a witness) It looked fine, told them what to do if it looks even worse in an hour or so (it didn't look bad) i.e. yes go to urgent care. They knew was RICE was and that's what I suggested because I can't treat patients. I could only give advice.
Didn't get into the lesser cryptid anthology. Oh well. But had the online writers group thing and got some progress made.
It's music monday and next week I'll be sharing a meme from

I burst into tears because I couldn't afford to pay for a new pair and how would I drive home without glasses? Luckily they weren't broken but the other students went bonkers. They shouted 'don't you hurt Miss!' and told off the culprit, and kept asking me if I was alright for the rest of the day. This was a rough school so they were usually putting on a tough front, but I think seeing one of their teaching assistants crying gave them a big shock.
