I learned two things today: 1. I hate sitting in the hot sun, especially after drinking the night before and 2. I need to work at hiding my annoyance. I worked the College graduation ceremony today. It went pretty well. Usually I get at least 10 parents telling me they deserve to sit up front with their child after paying so much for 4 years. Yea you and all the other 900 parents. The amusing moments involved parents holding ridiculously large cameras, trying to capture a shot of their kid walking across the stage.
The only issue today was the heat and the headache that came after my previous night's outing. I know the self-imposed hangover is MY fault so I try to stay quiet and just avoid people. A "bit" hard to do at a graduation ceremony--so the only option is to to stay silent. If you're not getting the hint after watching me sit there in silence with my head bent, I do explain the mood. "I have a headache, I'm hung over and I'm overheated." Basically shut up please--and don't point out the OBVIOUS by saying all those symptoms are my fault. Thanks Jerk, I couldn't figure it out myself for the past 5 hours. Instead people keep talking. What makes it worse is if you already did something to piss me off earlier and I haven't gotten over it yet--ergo I'm further annoyed by your gabbing. Adding to the annoyance is the "Why are you being so bitchy/grumpy/rude/testy?" I absolutely hate that question.
