Amusement

Most of you probably know that I am very easily amused, but I thought I would share some of the things that amused me this week with you:
************************************************
My students were instructed to copy a question off of the board. The question read: "Can you diagram a sentence?" When the teacher came around to check that they had written all that they were asked to, she found that one of her students had written this sentence (and had no idea that it wasn't correct): "Can you diaphram a sentence?"
*************************************************
2 students were discussing the rule against PDA's at school (this stands for Public Display of Affection). The conversation went like this (again neither student realized at any point that they were saying it wrong):
Student 1: "They don't allow PDA in school"
Student 2: "What's a PDA?"
Student 1: "It means Public Display of Erection"
*************************************************
A fellow student teacher at my school was waiting for his class to settle so that he could begin teaching. One of his more jovial students struck up a conversation with him and it went something like this:
Student: "Mr. Williams, are we going to be doing math today?"
Teacher (sarcastically with a laugh): "No, Cooper, we're going to be making pot holders."
Student: "You mean we're going to be making blunts?!"
Teacher: "Huh?"
Student: "Blunts, like that you roll up to hold pot"

Where do they come up with this stuff??

*************************************************
Ok this last one is about a dream I had and just amused me enough to share it. So you've probably heard that pregnant women have crazy dreams and I am definitely no exception. This one seemed to be my subconcious not-so-subtly reminding me my life has changed.
So, in the dream I'm in a scene I may have easily found myself in a few years ago: I'm at a party with my friends and we're sitting at a table playing quarters (as in the game where you try to bounce quarters into a glass and the loser has to take a shot). Now I'm losing miserably (which never would have happened in real life) and I notice I'm starting to feel a little sick. Well, that would make sense if I were taking a shot each time I lost, but I realize that I'm still pregnant, so that can't be it. So, I look down and see a little pile of large pink pills and realize that I've been taking a pre-natal vitamin instead of shots!

I told Jason about the kid who told Joseph this week that he couldn't get in touch with his mom because she was resting after her vasectomy. You can add that to your funny middle school kid stories!
