We've been working on major research projects for the last several weeks and have accordingly spent a lot of time in our school library. The library is conveniently located right across the hall from my room, so it's easy for me to run back and forth if needed. As we were heading over today, I realized that I'd forgotten a list of topics that I needed so I turned around to go grab it. It took a couple of minutes of searching before I found it and went back to the library.
When I entered, one of my boys came running up, looking alarmed. He grabbed my arm and hissed, "Ms. Teachin', you almost got scared, but that lady in brown got it instead!"
Though I was not at my best today (new cold....bleah), this still seemed somewhat nonsensical. "What?"
"I was hiding behind the door and I was going to scare you and I heard you coming and I jumped out and went, 'Boo!' but then it was that lady instead!"
I looked around. Another teacher's class was in there too, with a sub, and the sub was wearing brown.
He continued, "Ohhhhhhh, it was so embarrassing! She was like, 'Ahhhhhh!' and she jumped back and went like this," and he threw his hands up to demonstrate.
I started laughing. "Guess it serves you right for trying to scare me!"
He nodded solemnly. "Oh, it does. Next time I'll make sure it's you first."
I guess I better be ready!
