Follow up from the whine

I know it's not professional to have breakdowns at work. I tried to limit it today.

My department chair (that other teacher in my department) and my assistant principal are amazing.

Amen.

Still, no matter how much my mind knows that it's not me, no matter how ridiculous the points are to people who know me, no matter how many times I'm told not to take something personally, I can't convince my gut. (Mom's words there.) The take-away lesson: I could never be a politician. Negative campaign ads would make me doubt myself. And then I live down to expectations.
