And yet another write up

Ok.  I'm getting tired of writing kids up.  Today, I had a student open a bag of potato chips and start eating them - loudly - in my class.  I looked over at her and said, very nicely, "Put them away."  She replied, "No. I don't care if you write me up.  I'm hungry."  So, I took her outside to the office and explained that all she had to do was put them away and she wouldn't be written up.  Then I offered if she threw them away, I would tear up the write up. She said, "I paid $2 for these chips!  I ain't throwing them away!"  So, I left her there.  I don't know.  Is it me?  Rest of the day went pretty well.  There was a bunch of cookies and cakes in the teacher's lounge for Teacher Appreciation Week.  So, I had cake and cookies for lunch.  They do that on purpose so teachers won't walk out this close to the end of school.  Hey, it's laid out right, ain't it?  I'm even going to take my biology kids to the lab tomorrow to study the pulse rate of lumbriculus.  My lovely 6th period darlings have a test.  Almost poetic, don't you think?
