Losing Marbles

I had 5 good classes today. It was a rainy day and I had good time with Vicki and Christina before work. Christina cooked for us and it was delicious. She is such a remarkable woman overcoming all obstacles to still do wonderful things. She is so much stronger than I am.


Classes were interesting. I didn't yell as much and I was in a chipper and happy mood where I didn't care much. A lot of the students were absent and it helped. I joked a lot and had a good time. I am learning when I need to be a tough guy and when to ease up.

So I played and had a good time in all of classes. One of the kids Nate in MD1 had a marble which he kept dropping so I told the class what Losing one's marbles meant. He is a twirp and a dippy dutz as well. He doesn't focus and have concept at all.

Losing one's marbles implies you are losing your sanity.

I don't have a problem explaining to kids punchlines when they won't understand or follow my lecture anyways.

Tonight I went out to meet Aaron. I hadn't seen him for awhile so I learned about his life in Korea. His Seoul trips, his job, his potential lawsuit, and a bunch of other things that I am needing to think of in the near future.


Tomorrow I will be very busy. I am thinking I lost a little bit of my marbles because I want to be a provider, money saver and do things smartly I am trying to prove myself and I think I just made a small blunder. I think I should be more prudent.

I wish I knew more of what to do.

Thank God tomorrow is Thursday and No FRIDAY!

TO bed I go.

Merriam’s English Dictionary defines concept as the following:

1 : something conceived in the mind
2 : an abstract or generic idea generalized from particular instances


How can a concept be perfect or imperfect? That makes no sense. And how can there be lack of concepts when everyone’s mind conceives things and comes up with ideas? You keep writing that people have no concept, but when writing about concepts they generally have to be followed by the word 'of.' For example, 'My principal has no concept of what good communication is'. You can't just say a person has or doesn't have concept/s. It's like saying that a person isn't having thoughts when all people are. Just trying to help!
