IM withdrawal
One pretty sweet benefit that I had with my old job was the constant communication through yahoo im. I became addicted, even though I only chatted with Mere and Mister daily, it was like my life blood. As soon as something would happen in our office Mere and I would be chatting bout it back and forth on IM. I couldn't hardly get any work done for the messages popping up. I also got to know Mister a little better through it because a lot of things that we wouldn't say to each other face to face we said on IM. It's been almost two days without it and my fingers are itching. I'm craving to know what's going on with my friends. I'm feigning to tell Mister every single detail that has bothered me going through all of this new teacher stuff, but I can't because I don't have access. As a teacher I won't even be able to go the bathroom at my disposal (no more colon cleanser for me :-) I hope that I would be able to make new best friends at my school because I need that one person that I can always rely on to complain to or to lend me a hand or an ear when needed. Teaching can be a lonely job because it's just u and the students. It's been difficult going without these past few days, but I'm sure I'll get through it. I hope my anxiety goes away soon. At least I still have text messaging on my phone. But I have to be a model and not use it during classroom hours. To not tempt myself I'm leaving my phone in the car.
