11. Who is the most influential person in your life and why?
Everybody was put on this Earth to influence us in some way. It's hard to say who influenced me the most. My parents definitely had a huge roll. I grew up living with just my dad, so the internal tomboyishness comes from him. Also, the desire to become a teacher. He's been a teacher since before I was born. He was actually my mom's high school teacher. He was even my middle school teacher. lol.
My mom is a huge influence. I get my ways of thinking and feeling from her. Any time I try to explain my weirdo emotions, she's the first to understand completely. Plus she's one of the nicest people I've ever known. And I'm not saying that because she's my mom. She and my step-dad are the most generous giving people ever. They've influenced me to be a good person.
And Russ of course. My husband is my rock. He's amazing.

So I had a random day off today. Not to discredit the importance of Veteran's Day at all. Thank you to all that have served.
Our school was closed today, and I somehow had today off of wal-mart. I did absolutely nothing. Well, I got mostly caught up on Resurrection. I think I have one episode left. So now I'm good on Once Upon a Time and Resurrection. I haven't watch any Scandal or Revenge yet this season. Having two jobs is a killer. Don't they know TV is one of my top priorites in life?
I know it sounds silly, but I get really invested in TV shows and book series. The characters are my friends and their lives are important to me.
anywho, yesterday at Wal-Mart sucked so much. Donald called out, and it was just me and a floater pharmacist from 5 to 9. I was stuck at the register all night, and the poor pharmacist, who was PISSED, had to do all the work. People were angry that their medications weren't ready. We were both running around like crazy and didn't leave until passed 9:30 to get everything done.
School wasn't so fun yesterday either. I had a huge headache, and I mistakenly informed the kids. One of my students decided to be a smart-ass and purposely be obnoxious. I really don't know why. Funny enough, he's actually one of my favorites. And yes. I have favorites. He's so smart and funny and has a lot going for him. He's pretty much brilliant. He mentioned something about me hating him, and I said. "huh? I don't hate you." And he says "that's what they all say." Then he started to make smart-ass comments under his breath. I caught something like "annoying teachers." I asked him to stay after class, and he bolted. I ended up cornering him in another classroom to tell him that I have said nothing but great things about him to other teachers, and wherever the attitude came from, it has to stop.
I know I shouldn't take a teenage boy's smart ass comments to heart, but I do. I don't want to be one of those "annoying teachers." Especially to one of my favorites.
I need to start hanging out with more adults instead of teenagers and crabby pharmacy workers/patients. Which are all pretty much the same thing.
I have a long day tomorrow. 11-3 at school and 4:30 to 9 at the pharmbox. Ram (pharmacist) wanted me to work on Saturday so I'm working a full weekend this coming weekend. He texted me tonight asking me to write next week's schedule. So I did. I'm working Satuday, Sunday, Tuesday, and Friday at the pharmbox. All Ram's days. lol
I really want to write, but anytime I open the document, my mind is going blank. The writing muse hits me at the worst timing. Like driving to school, or in the middle of the pharmacy shift. Yet when i have a good time to do it.. nothing..
But I'm going to go force myself to write something. I'm still serious about eventually publishing this novel. 
peace!
