Ranking my days

I came to realize (after a particularly not so great day at school) that I seem to have a pattern of how I rank my days. You can really tell the correspondence of what my day at school was like to what I do after school gets out. This is how I rank my days.

1 --- Stay at school for a good hour after the kids leave - grade papers, clean my room, go happily home and play on my computer, singing along with my cd player, gets lots of school work done, stay up past 11

2 ---Stay at school for 1/2 hour - clean room, check e-mail, sing along with my cd, get most of my school work done, go to bed before 11

3 ---Stay at school for 15 extra minutes - put music on but don't sing along. Look longingly at 7-11 but don't stop, Grab a can of pop out of my fridge, get about 1/2 of my school work done. Go to bed by 10:30.

4 --- Leave school as soon as possible - put music on but don't sing along. Look longingly at 7-11, almost pull in the driveway but have the courage to refrain, get a pop from the fridge and hunt down some source of chocolate at my house, visit Mikayla to remind myself I like children, get maybe 1/4 of my school work done, go to bed just after 10.

5---Leave school as soon as possible - talk to myself the whole way home. My car goes on auto pilot into 7-11 for a Slurpee and Chocolate, visit Mikayla to remind myself that I like children, never touch my school bag all night --in fact do nothing productive all evening, go to bed before 10.

Just in case you were wondering --Today was a definite 5. So much for my resolution to give up drinking pop.
